    • RE: ANGER MANAGEMENT, when leaving comments in Torrent presentations:

      Echoing an original comment here, isn't it amazing at how well even short apologies work ("sorry, it was a bad day, and I was a bit flip . . .")? Early in my work career, an opposing party in a deal did exactly that after some uncivil (and bad) behavior, and it cleared matters away as well as a Spring shower. And it cost him nothing, in the end . . . . I remember it to this day.

    • RE: Anyone with a real methode for losing weight ?

      The basic: calories burned (through both exercise as well as just basic living) > calories taken in. The calories taken in is a major consideration--it can take lots of exercise to burn even smaller amounts of calories taken in.

      But then, for me within that, there are some caveats and helpful tips:

      -- Certain foods for me are "trigger" foods that seem to cause me to add weight more readily--esp. pasta and rice. Moderating my consumption of them seems to help--e.g. instead of making a rice with vegetables added meal (with protein added as well), I flip it into a vegetables with rice added meal (with protein added).

      -- Every little bit can help. For me, for example, starting a diet by lessening calories eaten by 10%, rather than going full-scale deprivation.

      -- After a period of time with restricted calories/volume of food, my stomach seems to shrink (does this really happen or is it my imagination?) and I get full/satisfied more quickly/easily.

      It really helps to know your own triggers, specifics, peculiarities and the like. For me, for example, I find that I'm happy with as little as an eighth of a pint of Ben & Jerry's ice cream (or even less), to get the flavor and enjoyment--after that, while I still like it (of course!), it's kinda/sorta more of the same. And so I keep that in mind and stop at the eighth rather than mindlessly continuing on.

      Good luck!

    • RE: I'm new here. Please let me know how to request?

      Just as another voice in the wilderness, I'd be interested in the reason why as well--I've found responses to requests made in the past so helpful . . . .
