You can turn off those emails, and the mini-feed as well. Facebook was way better before they introduced all these ******** new features into it - and back when only university students could use it.

It did let me connect with some people I haven't talked to since elementary school.

He probably thinks the bread diet has been working for him too.

Shiznaz 03-19-07 12:02 PM

I should apparently gain between about 5-40 pounds to be in my optimum weight vs. height ratio. I just can't ever get any heavier than 150!

TRaffic Jammer 03-19-07 12:04 PM

don't go changin'

2wheelsgood 03-19-07 12:25 PM

we could see your ribs through your jacket, remember?

Ugh, it was Ok in the beer haze but the memory is now too crisp for my liking...

Shiznaz 03-19-07 12:30 PM

The ladies have never complained about my rock star physique but sometimes I get light headed yknow?

somnambulant 03-19-07 12:38 PM

what's the "optimum" range? Roughly 150-190, I assume. According to my fancy new scales I'm 160lbs @ 12.5% body fat (assuming I know my height properly).

Height? Ideal weight also differs based on ethnicity.

Care to elaborate how ethnicity would play a role? Body type sure but ethnicity, that would be anew one for me.

I was 185 for many years. Messing helped to keep me there. Dont worry....once you hit 30 and keep yer diet the same you will pack em on. 225 and feeling (mostly) fine. Clydesdale class for my fat a$$...WOO WHO!

The height was for body fat %, not ideal weight. Obviously the idea of an "ideal weight" is kind of bs, because it doesn't take muscle mass vs fat vs bone density vs water weight, etc etc etc into consideration. Take two guys that are 200 lbs, same height/age/etc. One has 5% bodyfat one has 30% body fat. I'm thinking one of those is a lot more "optimum" than the other. :P

Shiznaz 03-19-07 01:02 PM

I'm just too lazy to work out and eat gross supplements. When I do I can pack on a few but I've never been heavier than 160 and felt like freaking he-man when I was 155! I'm trying to put on some extra fat and muscle for my bike trip because I can see my body consuming itself over the trip if I'm not careful.

I'm going to quote the cliche: "New studies have shown". This result wasn't entirely suprising to me.
