not sure if the question was answered or if anyone even cares anymore.... but I remember Dr. Drew saying something on his Radio show Loveline something about fat causing estrogen, which can cause the penis to be smaller. I'm trying to look around online to see if i can find anything about it and will post whatever i find. I'm not sure if losing the weight would reverse anything already caused, or if it just matters if you were overweight during puberty or anything.

Hopefully i can find something more concrete :)

Found this little tid bit:

"Fat has an enzyme that converts adrenal steroids to estrogen." on this site.

and just to confirm something that i just figured but wanted to find it written:

"Estrogen also shrinks the penis and testicles." found here

no idea about reversing it though...

Seems like making a note next to the weight entered is a good idea.  The difference doesn't mean you actually lost the extra weight but unless you want to add 3 pounds every time you enter your weight from now on then you'll just have to pretend you lost 3 extra pounds this week... shucks! :P

And i have problems with the scale changing within minutes also but i just go with the first reading.

I agree it is a bit pricey but just seeing someone holding an accurate replica of 1 pound of fat helps me.  I like looking at that and now know I've lost a bunch of those, and i don't want them back.

Also planting something in my lost fat sounds like fun, mostly to point out to people that it is my lost fat... with a plant growing from it.  Now thats a conversation starter.

I think the thing is, that it's not exactly that your calorie intake is 1000, it's what your eating for that 1000 calories.  If you can get a balanced diet in and you feel great, thats good.  But the problem is, it's hard to get all the nutrients you need into 1000 calories.

Sounds like your pretty happy with your diet, and i hope it keeps going great for you! 

I took a look around out of curiousity.  Because to me it did make sense to eat most of your calories in the morning, they do say breakfast is the most important meal of the day.  But I found an article that seemed to be unbiased, short, and right to the point.

 If you don't want to read it, it basicly says you should try and balance your meals as equally as you can.

Although right away I thought it was a no brainer for the nurse situation but then again it would be a hard situation if a Doctor was trying to convince a patient they needed to lose weight and fix their unhealthy life style, if the patient's nurse was really overweight.

 But that aside I still think she should get hired. If you can do the job, you can do the job.

I heard a guy once say he was more than happy to see stretch marks on a girl because he associated stretch marks with large breasts.  I can see not liking to see them on yourself, but i imagine if I saw a woman with double Ds I doubt I'd being thinking about her stretch marks, specially if I was male.

If they are red they will fade some, but silvery white is the best they get when it comes to fading.
