I probably won't have time or be compulsive enough to update this regularly, but I'll try to do so (and post progress photos--"before" pix are at the end of this) when I think there's significant progress. First a recap of my progress up until I joined VBBF last month. I started getting serious about getting off my ass and working out in May of last year, when a few years of being relatively sedentary (unusual for me) resulted in my weight topping out at 198 pounds--some day I'll be able to say "Once I was an 198 pound weakling!" Since I still appeared in better shape than most of the people around my age (46) I knew, I didn't think of myself as obese I guess even tho…

Recently I tried a game with aviation theme, where you need to catch the moment when it is better to stop. At first everything seemed simple - you bet, wait, take it away. But then I realized that you can't get far without strategy. Once I waited too long and missed a good moment for withdrawal. Since then I try to play more carefully, but I am still learning. What is your approach to such games?

Recently I thought about the safety of my money on the Internet. There was a case: I came across a site that promised fast payouts and good interest rates. At first everything went well, but then the withdrawal of funds was delayed. It is good that I did not invest a lot. After that I started looking for reliable ways to protect my money, but there is too much information. How do you store and manage your finances online to stay out of trouble?

Guys, recently came across a situation: a friend registered at the casino, received a bonus, but could not withdraw. It turned out that he had to fulfill a lot of conditions. I myself almost never used bonuses, but now I wondered - what are the really profitable ones? Maybe someone knows where you can get normal freespins or deposit bonuses without pitfalls? I wonder what promotions have really brought you a profit?

I always thought that winning at slots was pure luck. But recently I had a funny case. I decided to spin in the evening before going to bed, chose the first machine I saw and made a decent amount of money with my first bet. I thought it was a sign, continued - and I lost it all back. Now I think, maybe I should have withdrawn at once? How do you play: do you take your winnings right away or do you try to raise even more?

I've noticed that games with increasing odds have taken over recently. Before, everyone used to sit on classic slots or card games, but now most people I know are hooked on these quick rounds. I myself started with them by accident - a friend showed me how to play, and I got interested. Everything seems to be simple: click, wait for the coefficient to grow, and pick it up in time. But it was this simplicity and excitement that got me hooked. Why do you think such games have become so popular?

New blog instead of training journal, so I can post periodically in regards to my journey as a vegan in the mainstream world of Modeling, Competing & Personal Training. Staying busy doing the above as well as articles for mags and of course running a household Background for those who are new, I have competed in 9 shows in figure, fitness model and bikini. I am 100% natural and tend to stick to shows that are both drug tested and polygraphed. My journey has been incredible thus far and I feel so blessed to be doing what I love and helping others to reach their goals. I'm a single Mom and have had 5 children, I'm now 38 and was 184 after my last child at on 5'…

¡Hola a todos! Hace poco decidí probar a jugar a la tragaperras Gonzo's Quest. He leído que hay bonificaciones interesantes, y la ranura en sí parece bastante emocionante. Así que la primera vez lo perdí todo casi de inmediato, pero luego de alguna manera tuve suerte y cogí unos cuantos freespins, que me ayudaron a devolver el dinero e incluso ganar un poco. Me pregunto si alguien más ha jugado a esta máquina. ¿Habéis tenido historias similares en las que la suerte os haya dado la espalda de repente?

Hello, forum members. I was wondering: how can a business card influence the first impression? It seems like a small thing, but recently I met with someone on business, and he gave me such a stylish business card with embossing and good paper. I immediately thought: "Wow, this guy has everything respectable." But before, I underestimated how much a business card can show the level and seriousness of a business. Now I'm thinking about how to make my business cards so that my business looks great. What are your thoughts?

I’ve been thinking about booking a helicopter tour to Santa Catalina Island. I’ve always wanted to see the island from a different perspective, and a helicopter seems like the perfect way to do it. A friend of mine did it last summer, and she said the view of the coastline, especially when the sun was setting, was just unreal. She even saw a few sea lions from up in the air. It sounds like a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but I’m wondering if it’s really worth it? Has anyone else done this tour?

Hi, I have been lifting weights since summer 2000. I started with 4 sets of 10 reps of about 10-15 basic exercises. Then around 2003, I tried a list of exercises from Arnold Schwarzeneggers Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding. I started doing 10, 8, 6, 4 reps. In the last year, I did a 3 bodypart program per day, for 4 days a week that allows 48 hours recovery per bodypart. Right now, I am trying high rep from about 10-20. I have never trained high rep before. I am trying to improve muscular endurance and recruit more fibers. I am thinking of using my basic 4 day bodypart plan and just do whatever exercise I feel like that falls under part category. Then I would vary my exerci…

As suggested, I'm going to start a journal. Recently I have harvested inspiration from Marvel vs Capcom 3 chicks. My husband always tells me they're muscular because they're "drawn that way" but perhaps I can draw my own muscles wish a pen made of protein and ink made of lactic acid and sweat. DISCLAIMER: I'm not completely vegan. Yesterday... Breakfast: leftovers (it was uh... this something that I made: whole wheat pasta with lentils, mixed veggies, seitan, and flavorful additives of course) snack: fruit and nut bar (I am what I eat) with a chocolate banana coconut strawberry hemp protein shake and multigrain Cheerios lunch: more leftovers dinner: veggie wrap (wheat f…

Everything can either have a good or bad side, but let us focus on the good side alone. Hiring cheap assignment writing services will not only save you time, but you can spend this time on many other productive things. You will have an assignment worth securing an A+ at a very reasonable price. When comparing disadvantages, there may be little to no value. While working on many things, it will not be easy for you as you have to work on class tasks, assignments, as well as other activities.

I have posted my background and health concerns in other forums on this site. Please refer to them in the Introduction Forum and the Bodybuilging & Strength Forum. But briefly I'll review them. Last February I began to experience pain and great difficulty urinating. I was sent to the ER by my GP. At that time they found a blocked kidney stone but more importantly a large mass in my lower colon/prostate area. Long story short, after a colonoscopy found no cancer in my colon, the Doctor did find a large mass protruding/pressing into the colon track that my blocking my ability to defecate also. My prostate was very enlarged. I went to a Urologist and had two operations (…

I'm back! We switched servers for the past 15 months, and the forum disappeared. I thought it was gone forever, but we had it restored and it appears to be back in action. I've trained 8 of the past 10 days, and I figure I can start to log my workouts here like I did in the old days. Our first forum was created in 2003, and this version of the forum came along in 2005, nearly 15 years ago! Wow! Time sure flies. It's good to be back. I'll update this soon.......

It's hard to tell which shoes are more comfortable. There are a bunch of factors that can influence the comfort of a shoe, but I'll focus on the most significant ones. The material of the upper: leather and suede tend to be more comfortable than synthetic materials like canvas and nylon. The leather upper on your favorite pair of sneakers probably ranks high on your list of favorite features. The arch support: if you have wide feet, you want shoes with a lot of support in the arch area. If you're more average-sized, you might need to look for shoes with less support. The wider your feet are, the higher up in the arch region you'll want to look for comfort. …

Hello All, So I have been vegan for about 1.5 years. I love the lifestyle, but still struggle with how to properly balance my diet. My physical gains have slowed dramatically since my crossover and I cannot figure out what the deal is! Ok, part of it is that I bake too often! (Vegan of course) So here's what I ate today (i'm being honest about the X-mas cookie splurge) Breakfast: Vega sport performance protein with water, 1 cup blueberries Snack(post-workout): Vegan sport protein with water, 1 rice cake, unsalted Lunch: Seitan and carrot souffle. 2 Xmas cookies Snack: vega sport perf. protein with water, 1 xmas cookie Dinner: Brussel sprouts sauteed in olive o…

If we all went vegan, the world's food-related emissions would drop by 70% by 2050 according to a recent report on food and climate in the journal Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The study's authors from Oxford University put the economic value of these emissions savings at around £440 billion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN7JMuv-o9I
