I think that the most important aspect of successful dieting is allowing yourself to have whatever you want occasionally as long as it is in moderation. You can have something in 3 bite portions. After three bites you are just filling up on that food. Three bites satisfies the craving. You have the pleasure of that food by doing that there are never any foods that need deny yourself of. Overall behavior modification also an important component of weight loss. If not you will revert back to one's bad habits.

I agree that sometimes there can be a need for meds to be healthy. My primary doctor says I can give you pills that will say help lower your blood sugar but if you can lose weight and make dietary changes its better for you. Talking pills can have a negative impact on your health. After my heart attack I was put on liptor to lower my cholesterol. After several years I was having joint issues and had to stop. That was when I made the commitment to lose weight and change my diet to reduce my cholesterol. My most recent cholesterol results have been my best numbers ever. Some think I can eat whatever and my pills will be all I need.

I agree. I'm 6ft 2 and at my heaviest was around 360. I managed to get down to 300 lbs. In 2014 I had a heart attacked and managed to get down to 250 but gained it back. After lots of effort I a mm now down to 243. There are a lot of factors that can contribute to being overweight. However unlike getting rid of a bad habit of smoking you can not just quit eating. You have to work hard at behavior modification to achieve your goals.

Besides the issues of little exercise, poor discipline, and unhealthy food there is another factor. I remember reading an article that certain foods disrupt normal eating patterns. High fructose corn syrup does not trigger a full sensation causing the person to continue eating. In addition to sodas and other over sugared foods I seen it in things such as mayonnaise and tomato sauce. High fructose is a cheap filler to foods to pad out the volume. You gotta read the labels on everything to avoid it besides watching out for excessive amounts of salt and fat. Salt, fat, and sugar are the cheapest ways to flavor foods and in excess they are very unhealthy.

This story really was heart warming. Nice to see some good news these days. https://www.newsweek.com/instagram-cats-kittens-stray-ambushed-bathes-video-update-1714668

Great color. Nice start.

I have to agree that telling people about problems after they have run into them isn't very useful. I had never heard about the engine height issue. It would have been more useful info if the op was warned earlier. Some of the other issues had already been discovered. The point of sharing info is to help others deal with it.

I can image the chaos this was. Suprised it didn't turn into a riot. https://news.yahoo.com/gas-station-california-turned-circus-155126416.html

Besides the hemi in the Miss Deal kit the revell hemi hydro also had a hemi.

Love it. Very cool.

Hope you reconsider. Please don't deprive everyone else of what you are doing. I have been enjoying this build.

Glad you got it fixed rather than stuck in a box. Nicely done.

For anyone who still doubts this kit can produce a nice looking model with reasonable effort check out this stunning build.

A stunning model. Super clean work. Plus from your build plan shows that you didn't need to spend lots of time to build it.

I agree tv/movie and collectibles(ie coke) are a different market. Race cars have a world wide market. However many factory stock cars(imperial for example) such as a factory stock Imperial simply has a limited world wide appeal.

Sorry I completely disagree with you. You are making broad generalizations that are comparing apples and oranges. I doubt the market for a stock imperial is close to the interest in race cars.

Had to laugh this really pokes fun at some of the endless obits that clutter up the board. Glad I can can filter them out for the things I come to the board to view.

Although its not a kit I'm interested in I hope it is a success. Think the curbside fits the intended audience. However there are many cars that would have to be a full glue kit and honestly I don't think its going to work in many cases. For example I don't think a a Tucker curbside would have that much appeal. In the current market I think multiple versions are the only way to make the full glue kits work economically.

Never mix different brands of paints. Definitely a waste of time and paint. A brand and type is called a paint system.

Didn't please me but gave me a chuckle. In my spam folder I had a email from "Westan Unionr". You know if you're going to send phishing emails spelling does count.

Nicely done. With a reasonable amount of effort you got a nice shelf model

Great start. Nice to see the build process. Going to be another stunning model.

Another possible solution would be to use the thinner for the paint used and say cotton balls to strip the paint.

It make sense about the iconizing for some things. Can you image how big that sign would have to be if it encompassed multiple languages.

There are holidays for parties and there are holidays that should be a day of reflection. Veterans day and Memorial day are for reflection and gratitude to those have sacrificed for our freedoms. Unfortunately all holidays have become the focus of endless sales and just another day off work.
