"WASHINGTON — Faced with their favorite foods, women are less able than men to suppress their hunger, a discovery that may help explain the higher obesity rate for females, a new study suggests. Researchers trying to understand the brain's mechanisms for controlling food intake were surprised at the difference between the sexes in brain response."

I generally am disgusted by obese people of both genders

but its the loose upper arm fat on women that really grosses me out

when it just hangs like a tapestry

all I know is that my girlfriend gets mean when she hasn't eaten. She's not over weight though so I guess that would be a different study...

most likely this is some evolutionary response for women, particularly those of child bearing age, to ensure that they have the necessary fat stores to survive

That's what I expected too. If I don't get food when I am hungry it's raging bitch time.

(I am not obese either though)

that was my thought, it should be instinctual for mothers to be endowed to provide for themselves and their newborns' needs

I saw on the news about 2 months ago that the best way to lose weight is to keep a journal of what you eat. One woman knocked off 40 pounds.

^ it helps a lot

most people don't realize how many calories they eat in a day

you can even use something like fitday.com that already has a big database of foods in it

It's definitely easy to "forget" about your previous indulgences when you're hungry. I know a lot of people that think they are eating well, but then they party Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I'm like, you know those 3 days you party make up 40% of the week, right?

A couple of weeks ago I drew out a calender on my dry erase board. I basically just slap a green check in there for days that I did really well with diet/exercise, a blue check for the break even days, and a red check for days where I really didn't do well. In a couple of months I should be able to look at that board and get a pretty good indication of where I failed if I don't meet my goals.

if a girl has big tits the first thing you should do is check out the arms. if her upper arms are bigger than yours her tits are probably all fatty and disappointing. if her arms are regular size is game fucking on.

Women are stupider than men.

Cooking, cleaning, and vaginas.
