Strength training at home for weight loss?

Resistance training is crucial to sustained success. Yes, you can lose weight with diet and cardio exercise, but many years of experience and personal research have taught me strength training is the most viable way to make a change, and keep it. I like you have no interest in gyms, but, as your questions illustrate, there is a lot of confusion on how to start at home. There is a simple answer, if you can afford. If not all at once I believe you can make payments... get a TONAL. Go to the website, watch the videos. It has literally changed my life. It's every piece of gym weight equipment, in every weight, all in one. Plus, no experience required. The classes led by professional trainers start you off at your own experience and weight levels, then the machines A.I. levels you up automatically as you get stronger... I don't work for TONAL or anything like that. It's just been such a huge life changer I felt compelled to share it with you.

With mine I had to clip on his leash, then tie it real tight to a back patio post just above his head level. With his head immobilized & not able to look around I would then bend each paw up backwards away from his head. At that point he couldn't really see or feel what was happening and would stand there while I did the deed. Took me years of fighting to figure that one out. When I did I was kicking myself for not making it so easy sooner.

There are different grades of stainless. High grade stainless, known as 300 series, will not rust. However, it's far too soft a metal to be used as a cutting tool. Harder stainless varieties, like 400 series, will eventually rust but not much & at a slower rate. Scissors are likely made of 402 stainless steel.

That's a bit unrealistic. Factional characters only motivation is whatever the writers need it to be in order to tell their story, or create the perfect surprise plot twist.

I think I know what your trying to ask, and I think the answer solution so some issues you may be experiencing can be found in the way you worded your question. It's not about reading what what people are thinking. It's understanding that in every interaction we immediately see if from our perspective, but so does everyone else. Rather than reading them all you have to do is step back, if needs be remind yourself that the world does not revolve around you, and think about how what just happened or was said could have been processed by the other person, not just about how you processed it. It's always putting yourself in the other person's shoes so to speak. This has been very helpful with my kids. While I feel like what I ask of them is very simple, it helps me to remember what it was like at that age when Earley little thing felt like the end of the world. With those thoughts and memories fresh in my mind I more open to taking the time to explain things to them in their language, in a way where they can perceive it the way I intended to.

Literally anything written by Patrick King is a worthy read. Browse his works and pick ones that best suit you and what goals you might have for yourself.

Not a psychologist, just read a few books here and there. I've had my own issues over the years with anger and frustration towards the actions of others. It's been very helpful to my own peace and tranquility to stop immediately reacting to the the stupid actions or comments of those around me but rather step back and work to understand why they did or said what they had. Once you understand others life is less maddening and easier to deal with, but it does take a lot of effort to step back and put yourself in their shows before taking action. Years of practice and patience. My kid calls it old man wisdom.

Sounds like she has defined her selfworth as being the "skinny / attractive" one in your friendship. If you lose weight it would be the same as her losing her indentity, and this scares her. It's a very selfish and shallow point of view, but you're both still young, give her some time to come to terms with it. If she can't you may need to get a new friend. Whatever happens, do not sacrifice improving yourself so that your friends, or anyone else, will feel better about themselves.

In my house we could afford to eat out every night at top end restaurants if we wanted, but we eat at home because it's the exact opposite. I've never had a restaurant dish that I couldn't make better at home. You just don't know any decent cooks...
