    Help me lose weight

    In the past four months, I've lost about 20 pounds. This week, I've been doing a liquid-diet to cleanse the body of "toxins". I feel great, and on Friday I'll what its done to my weight. Anyway, by the end of the year I hope for that 20 pounds to be 60. That'll take me from 240 to 180 pounds...

    Gamers and Stereotypes

    Wow. This thread is becoming amazing. Both in length of thread, and length of individual posts. Oh, and the level of wise concern. Majoru Oakheart, we've been where you are. Four months ago I was incredibly unhappy and didn't know it. I was unhappy because of how I looked, what chemicals were...

    The simple joys in life

    roses. lemons. girls. human touch. walks. swinging. yoga. beathing. being alone. The simple pleasures are amazingly good, as I'm pretty sure our bodies thirst for and crave them.

    Declaring Bankrupcy?

    Yeah, its bad. About 20 years ago, my parents declared bankrupcy. They'd bought a lot of things before my sister and I were born they could no longer afford. *poof* went the house, we were in a condo for 4 years or so. Sears allowed them to continue to make payments, and to this day they have...

    Do you need high stats to be an effective character?

    It depends on the rest of the party. If everyone else has a bunch of 16s and 18s and the like, and I've got a character I barely didn't throw away after 3 rolls, then my character will be less effective. Reminds me of a game I'm in right now. I'm playing a bard, and the rest of the party...

    Gamers and Stereotypes

    well, I'm cool. I don't know what it is to be popular, but I know what I like. And that's my normal definition of cool. and I've been getting cooler at a pretty rapid pace lately. I've lost 20 pounds, I'm headed off to graduate school in Pittsburgh, and I add a lot to the games I'm in. Yep...

    Bumping.

    Easy question: does posting in off topic posts bump your post count or not?

    Bit of advice?

    That's right as far as it goes. But we're all conditioned to like coke, fast food, etc etc. So how do we switch from that to a balanced diet that consists mostly of grains and fruits and the like? I did it by altering my perceptions of foods. Chemically, starting with lemon juice. This has...

    Bit of advice?

    Or you could just eat Pure Grade B Maple Syrup and fresh-squeezed lemon juice. Maybe with some Cayeanne pepper. and a large amount of water. Its got all the vitamins you need. And most of the energy you need. Cleanses the body and makes you feel good. Made me high.

    Bit of advice?

    Wow! That'll make you stop drinking. btw, that acetelehyde stuff is more toxic than the liquor itself, the body usually deals with it in the kidneys pretty easily ... but not large amounts. No wonder I craved eggs this morning. I drove to a place and had an awesome omelet. I love knowing how...

    Bit of advice?

    I love!!! how stuff works. I've learned so many, many things from that website. Now I'm going to go read up on hangovers. You know, six months ago I would have mocked people talking about "toxins". Now I'm doing it. Its awesomes.

    A Tank in High Fantasy!

    Steam generates power. There's a high fantasy world a friend of mine made, with a lot of help from the rest of us. In that world, dragons were created by man -- wizards -- as instruments of war. I could see the dwarves of that world having tanks. Overtly not as awesome as dragons, but still...

    Bit of advice?

    I've started the detoxing. And fasting. I'm essentially not eating for a week. The hangover is gone, and I'm feeling incredibly high. Not stoned, I just feel very good. Euphoric. In the same sort of way that my body was angry at me for drinking liquor, it seems happy for what I'm doing now...

    Umbran, you're a genuis! I've *got* to learn me some of that thermodynamics.

    Bit of advice?

    The maple syrup isn't for the hangover. Its for detoxing. When I start the detoxing I won't be at all suprised if it helps get rid of the hangover. A hangover, other than the dehydration, is basically toxic crap in the body.

    Bit of advice?

    Its 11 AM ... I've had a wonderful breakfast, a good deal of water, and I'm still a little hungover. Drinking doesn't appear worthwhile to me anymore, I'm pretty sure I am going to stop. Anyone know any other remedies for a hangover, other than time? Also, related to all this, I think I've...

    Bit of advice?

    I was planning on begining a fairly stringent detox program this morning. With the centerpiece frozen, I can't very well do that. I'm considering just buying some more. And finding a place to sell me protein so I can get rid of this liquor-induced haze.

    Bit of advice?

    That's about what I expect from diaglo. Its a bad idea, I'm pretty sure the various good for you things in it are sensitive.

    Favorite Race And/Or Template?

    As far as stupidly overpowered goes ... I once saw a human fighter/forsaker with the vow of poverty. He was in Kalamar, where Lightning Reflexes is a fighter bonus feat. That means he got Forsaker at second level. He didn't get the Vow until 6th, but it hardly mattered. As his CON also added...
