"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Milk helps you to lose weight?

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

They pretty much say that a calcium deficency will hinder fat loss. Then they go on to say that you should have low fat dairy products to get your calcium because they "have more vitamins and minerals".

So, pretty much, you will get the same effect by supplementing calcium and a multivitamin.

I don't like to waist my calories with milk, I would rather fill them up with meat, fish, or poultry.

yeah i noticed that part too. Seems that the main reason they dont suggest the calcium supplements is due to the lack of the vitamins that milk contains.

But still an interesting perspective nonetheless..

I like reading poeple opinion's on here, helps to form a somewhat educated one. (sometimes)

Keep debating:D

looking back i sort of agree with it! I never use to have dairy products at all, never ate breakfast. Last two weeks i have been having about 1L of milk a day, ive lost 3 kilos without trying. Im not overweight either im 79kgs now.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

The calories and carbs keep me away from milk but I eat most of its derivatives... lowfat yogurt, cottage cheese... they have much longer protein chains anyway. I get my A and D vits from plenty of other sources, like Cod Liver Oil, so no worries there.

On a side note, calcium is pretty useful to the body as a whole. Calcium pectate in crispy vegetables help to reduce serum cholesterol.

Skim or 1% milk is the way to go.

It's high in protien and far better to make protien shakes with than water.

I've found the beneifts are great though not sure about making me losing weight because I'm bulking right now and have gain 8 pounds of muscle.

Milk is gay!

You don't need milk or any dairy products to be healthy. The only reason all you people drink milk is because dairy advertising agencies push the "Got Milk?" commercials. There is no reason at all to eat dairy products.

Do an internet search and you will realize that nobody needs to eat dairy products to be healthy. You people believe that you need them because you see all of the milk and cheese commercials on TV that promote the products. It says that they are a good source of calcium, which is true, but you can make claims like that about any food product. Everybody that eats dairy products is a victim to the dairy industry and its commercials.

Go ahead... give them some more money.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Wheelin, your right about not requiring milk but why wouldn't you want to drink it when bulking??

Name me one other non mixed drink that has the amount of protien milk does?

I eat meat and drink water. If I want a protein drink, then I make a protein shake.
