Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Hey guys, I wanted to kmnow the quickest way to lose 2 stone. I've been doing a lot of running and the likes and have been cutting down on my food but it hasn't worked as well as I hoped... I have been doing it already for at least 2 months and I don't think it is working for me. Is there any other ways besides running (I am also doing press ups sit ups you name it)... Thanks
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Much fruit and lots of vegetables mainly... Of course I have had meat and potatoes etc. to keep a balanced diet, but mainly that.

Is a "stone" some sort of weight unit? If so...

Cardio alone will bring you only so far. When you burn fat by running/general cardio, you're going to have to eventually hit the weights to firm up your body. Weight lifting will break down your muscles and force your body to rebuild them...this increases your metabolism, which in turn burns more fat. Try to incorporate a few sets of major lifts (squat, deadlift, bench press...anything which uses a lot of different muscles throughout your body AT ONCE) with your cardio. I'm pretty sure you'll see better results. ;)

Good luck! :rockon:

How much have you lost mate?
A couple of quick tips:

Try running BEFORE breakfast, don't eat ANYTHING after 6-7pm if possible, if you have to nothing with lots of carbs, and before your morning run have a cup of strong black coffee.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Btw, yes, a stone is a measurement of weight, about 6 and a half kilos.

I forgot to mention - that's 13kg or so, mate, you won't be able to lose that overnight. Keep going and it will disappear eventually!

we need details.
* How much fruit are you eating per day? (large quantities of fruit = sugar)
* What kind of fruit?
* Potatoes: how much, what kind?


Give us a detailed plan of what you have eaten during the last 3 days, this way we check your situation.
