Argue all you want but it's easy to lose weight

Burn more calories than you take in, exercise regularly and eat mostly healthy

You ever meet a person who has run multiple marathons and is fat?

I'm not saying being fat is good or whatever, I was just saying that I'm already trying to lose weight so saying "Just workout lol" isn't helpful or funny.

Depends on your lifestyle.

Do you have a desk job where you sit a lot? What do you eat and drink?

My obese friend chows down a bag of chips in 3 days and usually powers through a 2L of pop a day. He also eats out at McDonalds a lot as well.

However he is determined to lose weight and is adjusting his diet and started working out at nights. He has been 400lbs for 15 years. He has already lost 20 pounds in 3 months of him really half assing it, and he has a lot of rear end.

Have you looked at the weight loss section of SA? There are great threads there that offer a lot of support and healthy planning.

The first step is you. Be committed to the idea, accept when you crash, but keep going strong.

It's bad taste to bring up a person's racism, sexual harassment, constant endangerment of others and political corruption on the day of that person's death when said person has moved on from that behaviour and showed some shame over it.

That does not apply to Rob Ford, who often celebrated that behaviour, so, fair game.

Edit: LMAO. I'm Facebook friends with the woman who did Karen Stintz's social media during her campaign and this woman just posted an article about how Rob Ford was "a great man."

Feeling ambivalent about a lovely person (who loved how lovely he was) dying isn't the same as believing said person deserves to die. HTH.

Exactly. At a certain point, after a few dozen racial slurs in council, a couple public incidents of sexual harassment, a handful of times of telling actual children to gently caress off, you might worry about your legacy. Unless you want that to be your legacy.

I'm not sure either because the journalist didn't get to ask her questions because this cabinet minister's job at 12:15 on a budget day Tuesday is to deliver pizza to his kids.

It's not even that, literally everything he had done was just ridiculous.

quote:

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford had his high school players roll in goose droppings, threatened to beat up a teacher, showed up drunk at a practice and reneged on a promise to buy $5,000 worth of football helmets for his team, according to internal school board documents released today.

..

In another incident outlined in the documents, Ford reportedly had his players "roll in goose scat" and called them "c--ksuckers" after he was unhappy with their efforts in a game.

Wikipedia posted:

In 2000, Ford married Renata Brejniak, whom he had met in high school.[2] Ford, Renata, their daughter Stephanie, and their son Doug, resided in Etobicoke.[18][19] In 2008, after a 911 call from the Ford home, Ford was charged with assault and threatening to kill his wife. The Crown attorney said "there was no reasonable prospect of conviction" because there were "credibility issues" with allegations by Ford's wife due to inconsistencies in her statements. Ford said that he was glad the ordeal was over and that he and his wife have sought marital counselling.[20] In two separate incidents, on 25 October 2011, and again on 25 December 2011, police were called to Ford's home to investigate domestic disputes. During the Christmas Day incident, Ford's mother-in-law called 911 between 4 and 5am local time as she was concerned that Ford had been drinking and was going to take his children to Florida against his wife's wishes. No charges were laid in either incident.[21] Further domestic incident calls to police occurred in 2012 and on August 27, 2013. Again, no charges were laid.[22]

From a glass half-full perspective, Rob Ford's cancer diagnosis in 2014 was time correlated with a significant decrease in the number of domestic violence incidents at his home.
