why would i care what you meant? maybe you can request from the editor to moderate the thread you started

use a straw to suck it up your nose. (not to be done with soda. the bubbles are irritating)

If it tastes good- “I made it”.

If it tastes bad- “My son’s horrible wife made it.”

First of all there are plenty of people who do kiruv krovim. Second of all, it certainly sounds to me that one will be alot more successful trying to help the people who are interested instead of people whose parents are interested.

they are sinners regardless.

losers? i think they usually win.

If i were to do that which fief un did i would be a jerk.

I am on a high enough level of gadlus as to not orture a lady who is clearly not lying.

Whether she decides to get a letter or not is none of my business. the rabbonim did not issue a law, but rather an eitzah tovah. And they are sweetie pies for it too.

the gemara says tav lmaytav regarding women

I recently became better frinds with a diabetic. His closer friends taught me how to take his blood when he is stone drunk.

i figured it out 🙂

Being healthy is mutually exclusive to losing weight. People who eat healthy do not shrink into oblivion. and people who are proper weight dont gorge themselves to keep it up. The answer is that people who eat healthy stay the same weight, FOREVER. Losing weight by definition entails doing somethig unhealthy. Personally, when i want to lose weight i eat one meal a day. brekfast. and a snack in the afternoon or split snack for eveneing too. Oh yeah and jog upwards of five miles a day.

I usually do not. it ruins the taste of my beer on the date.

What do you drink before a date 😛

Also a post most worthy of quoting is that of torahls1 in http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/shidduchim-038-weight as copied here:

You are a living example of why daas torah is so important. You are wrong from your opening sentence to your closing argument…..and you also happened by chance to completely miss the point. Seeing as it is right after yom kippur, I may grant that you will never want to face the truth, but I feel the need to point out your absurdity to anyone willing to face logic even if they don’t like it.

You begin by saying that “We have a big problem these days.” Really? We have a big problem these days? This is a new problem that just came up that you did not know about when your children were young and you gave them all kinds of candy at every opportunity? When you were young ugly people were pretty and let me guess the guys would only marry girls older than them. Right. OK.

And I quote your last point:

“I just don’t think it is right, and many times you should not judge a person at face value, by appearance alone, and if you look a little beyond surface deep you will find something beautiful you weren’t willing to give a chance before.”

You seem to feel that it is definitely true that just because a guy won’t marry her then it must be true that he is only looking “surface deep”. I would say that it is very possible that he knows all about the stuff under the surface and he’s not judging her at face value and if there was only one thing necessary in a marriage(that being “wonderful, beautiful, amazing girls, who have good middos, are tzanua, are pleasant, and sweet, who have good jobs, and looking forward to raising a family”)then he would marry her, BUT there are other things that might hold him back. Maybe she’s 44. Is that looking skin deep? Maybe she’s got no arms. Is that looking skin deep? Maybe she’s not jewish. Is that looking skin deep? Maybe she’s fat. Is that looking skin deep? Maybe she’s 22 but divorced with newborn triplets. Is that looking skin deep? Maybe she smokes like a trucker. Is that looking skin deep? Maybe a combination of the above. That doesn’t mean that she’s not “wonderful, beautiful, amazing girls, who have good middos, are tzanua, are pleasant, and sweet, who have good jobs, and looking forward to raising a family” It just means that the average guy is not going to marry her. ostrasized

Finally, you completely missed the point. We’re talking about a person’s life here. We’re talking about choosing a person to become a part of oneself to form a whole. Is someone expected to even consider thinking about how other people will feel about their decision? Should a person marry someone just to help a crisis? If you will answer yes, I suggest you insist that all fat girls and smoker boys should marry each other.

I quote popa. He is so eloquent, so thought provoking, such an intellectual. Like a breath of fresh air in a cesspool. His ingenuity and mockery of the thoughtless makes everyone think before they spew forth their vitriol.

From what i here it is awfully common among the yeshivish-orthodox to smoke as an outlet. As the alternative is damging his middos you can be sure youre getting the best guy

The “American girl doll” henceforth referred to as “Nuvul B’rshus Hatorah” or NBH is and always will be aptly named.

It is about as muttar as marrying a fat girl. I can’t convince you that its assur, but I’m not doing it and pity the gehenom of the guy who convinced you to.

where might you be getting that from? my rebbi told us differently

Firstly and most importantly you must maintain a conviction not to listen to naysayers who try to convince you not to do your avodas hashem.

Step two is you just do it.

There is a guy who used to work in my school who went from really overweight to really not really fast. The story is told that he had a conversation with his wife where she spoke of the hard ships of losing weight so he told her it wasn’t that hard and just to prove it he did it.

So the answer is don’t do diets, Just lose weight. Just do it. Forget lifestyle changes. Forget rules.

Eat Healthy (Foods). Eat little. Early in the day. Oh, right and exercise. A lot.

I think the main thing to keep in mind is to stay away from the people who think dieting should be done in a healthy way. Seriously. A tiny bit of logic aught to help you. People who eat healthy don’t lose weight. If they did people would just disappear into nothingness by eating healthy. But they don’t. Healthy people stay the same weight. If you want to lose weight you have to do something unhealthy.
