    [OT] Why are so many Americans "overweight"

    My point, though, is that it's not just pro wrestlers and body builders. There are some overweight regular guys (i.e., don't really spend a lot of time lifting weights) who, if they lost their fat, would still be in that category. In my mind, that completely destorys the credibility of BMI.

    [OT] Why are so many Americans "overweight"

    Those numbers are almost exactly where I'll be when I drop the rest of my fat. I'm 321 (145.6 kg) at 5'11" (1.8 m) right now, the scale says 37% or 38% (*). Using the higher number, puts me at 200 (90.7 kg) of lean mass and 121 (54.8 kg) of fat. I know I'm overfat, but I used to think I had...

    [OT] Why are so many Americans "overweight"

    BTW, I don't think the BMI is a terribly accurate depiction of the average American build. Not just fat, but muscle and bone. This is gonna sound like an "I'm big boned" excuse, but there's something to it... I'm overweight (but loosing it pretty fast) and if my bodyfat scale is even close to...

    [OT] Why are so many Americans "overweight"

    Just wanted to correct your math (someone may have already)... most pop (soda is carbonated water, darn it!) is 100 calories per 8 ounces. So, 250 for a 20 ounce. Still, I had a similar problem... 3-5 20 ounces a day is still 750-1250 extra calories. It did fill me up some though... and there...

    HackMaster GM Shield - You GOTTA See This!

    Word of mouth marketing is still marketing. And a heckuva lot cheaper than most other kinds. Even if you did sell triple the amount, you'd probably spend 70% of that on excessive marketing.

    Thieves In The Forest

    "Thieves in the Forest" may not seem like much, but for an introductory adventure, it's not a bad place to start a 3rd edition campaign. It's a very simple adventure....find the thieves and stop them. Not much to it or this module. But's that's OK. For people that haven't played with the 3rd...

    Three Days to Kill

    As a DM, "Three Days to Kill" was one of those adventures I love to run. The strength of this module is the fact that it let's the DM set-up and react to what the players do, instead of vice-versa. It was alot of fun to watch my PCs discuss/argue among themselves on a plan of action, and then...

    In the Belly of the Beast

    Note: Some spoilers below On the surface, "In the Belly of the Beast" would seem to be a great adventure that will challenge the skills of any DM. It contains a good plot, well detailed NPCS, and a heavy emphasis on role-playing. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite live up to the promise. I've...

    Lost game shop thread.

    A while back there was a thread about opening a new game shopt and the hassles involved. I have no clue what incarnation of the boards it existed on, and with the search feature turned off I've no idea if it's here. Does anyone know if it still exists, and if so where it lives now? Thanks.
