Is Western society really all that tolerant of fat people? Fat people get looked down upon and insulted quite a bit, especially among kids.

meh...this topic has been recycled so many times on this forum and there's never anything new to say.

I'm more interested in those injections in the clip. They looked nasty! The technician seemed to getting some kind of enjoyment from the stabbing motion.

The comments about exercise are probably right in that woman's case though. A BMI of less than 19, but higher fat proportion than average (not that they said how much higher, or what the average is), would generally indicate that some exercise is in order, surely?

Another thing, in Australia, a "normal" BMI is between 20 and 25, but here it's between 18.5-23 (or whatever it was). Is it the same in the other English speaking countries?

Wouldn't it be easier to get new friends than go through surgery? That girl was under weight and her narcasisitc friends say she was 'thick'. ha ha ha...come to America and you will see thick, honey!

Why have a six pack when you can have a keg?

Not like I'm a weightlifter, but I did it for 6 months last year until I got pissed at the gym because I was killing myself and still fat. And then this year only since the start of the year. I'm not talking benching or what have you. Just some 5 kg weights and videos for instruction.
The muscle is all up under the fat and this area just doesn't want to change. It's so pale and lumpy and sad.

Again, working to improve my overall BFP and REALLY hoping this shrinks! qq

You lose fat but gain muscle. You can't trust the scale, only the mirror.

Also, 5kg is pretty pathetic. You lift more than that just standing up when you get out of bed. Move up to 10kg weights. It's not THAT heavy.

I believe she's talking about dumbells per arm. If that's the case, it's a good size for a woman who wants to tone. At my fittest, I was using 6kg per arm. Women don't bulk up like men do, for the most part. It's very different from using a machine, as you should know. On a machine, I used far more weight and both arms. Free weights are much more effective, though, as you probably know.

As for just standing up, of course your legs use much heavier weights than your arms. She made it clear that she was talking about her arms.

I like the part when the guy said "If a dish looks good, it probably tastes good"

Too bad, I'd like to tell him that lots of dishes look good here, yet taste like $#!T

I also love how Korea is okay with capitalizing on the self-loathing nature of 80% of its young women. 파이팅!

It is literally impossible to "tone" one area of your body and it's a myth perpetrated by As-Seen-On-TV gimmick equipment. The only way to lose your flabby arms is to lose fat, which only comes off of your body from all over, not one area at once.

It has EVERYTHING to do with your diet. People's focus should be on lowering your overall bodyfat %, not "toning" one area.
