I know, but that depends on whether one really is a victim. If someone's engine keeps blowing up, I'd suggest one of two things:

1. A technical fault with the engine - a clear liability. The vehicle manufacturer should provide suitable compensation. A recall of all vehicles may be required. If not, a class action lawsuit could remedy the situation.

2. Someone is deliberately tampering with the engine. The Mafia, for example, could be trying to take out a hit. I would advise the victim to stay indoors and seek protection. This is a criminal matter for police.

I'm sorry, a vehicle with an exploding engine is not acceptable. It is highly dangerous and should be seen to immediately.

I should not really say this, but the reason for the engine change was that the engine had over 200,000km on the odometer. The engine was due for a change. What irritated me the most was that I had a 5-figure bank account balance in 2021. It whittled away to half that amount by July. Then there were the repairs and the car engine replacement which left me with a balance that I could probably use within a month -- if there is no income forthcoming.

Among a lot of things going on in my life is that my father seems to have only a couple of years left of life. And I am not even emotionally or financially ready for that inevitability. So, the only solution left for me is to be sober, employed, and very vigilant.

A lot of people go through this sort of thing in their 40s.

It's hard, Rocky, but you might want to think of getting a drug habit or something. You may be able to qualify for the DSP, get cheap rego and help with the bills.

Either that, or run for prez. You can start up a superpac and get free donations for life. If you
get busted for any historical rape or major felonies, you can claim WITCH HUNT SO UNFAIR, etc.

Here is your last post I responded to: "Heh i didnt say ALL is caused by meds but a pretty high percentage is and the ppl on here hating".

Despite the fact that it looked like some teenager in a rush to write a response and run away, I responded to supplement my previous point.

Some medications that cause water retention:
some antidepressants
some heart and blood pressure medicines
corticosteroids
the pill
non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
some hormone replacement therapies

I have had diets, supplements, medications, etc., that would have led me to retaining water. But still, people are not on the medications forever to explain being morbidly obese. And if medications were what caused people to *mostly* explain why they become morbidly obese, those medications would have been off the market.

Its not just water retention. Not being a doctor i dont know what it is but on some medications it is impossible to lose weight.Maybe they make you hungrier by leeching some vitamin out of your system or soemthing.

No it’s not that. Some medications slow down your metabolism.

And that is why doctors ensure you are fully warned/prepped to factor this into your daily diet/exercise protocol.

There’s really no excuse for being fat. It’s a choice.

Kim Kardashian is a pretty woman. But, having an obese arse that she does is something that I cannot find attractive. Maybe it is cultural. Americans have gotten caught up in losing their shame that they cannot see health problems as not being sexy.

yep and it's not photo-shopped:

Being 5 feet 3 inches tall would not explain why a woman has an arse double the expected size of someone fit and healthy. Genetics might play a part. However, it seems that Kardashian does not do leg workouts.

I think she cashes in on fat women to make them feel wanted.

I doubt that she makes money by making fat women feel wanted. That does not make sense. I think she is just trying to identify with a certain demographics to appeal to them.

You feel hungry when your body starts requiring nutrients. You run low on energy and your body starts to seek stored energy from your fat cells. I think it is well-documented that I am not an expert in epidemiology and related issues. But, medications only do so much to provoke a reaction from the body.

I take a type of metformin. From what I am told, the metformin stops my insulin from spiking. Therefore, when I eat something sweet, there is a lowered reaction of insulin production so that enough insulin is produced to draw the glucose into my body's cells.

What I learned about 10 days ago was not to mix men's multivitamins with alcohol. The supplements in the multivitamin do not mix with alcohol, causing a reaction in the body that leaves you gaining weight.

There are all kinds of variations to medications. But, if you take them as they are directed and for a purpose, then you should be fine.

Well the poll says YES -
women are getting fatter.

I notice it when I go to the shopping centers -
massive women everywhere with huge thunder thighs
and great big fat guts hanging out -
often stuffing food down their cake holes even as they walk along.
They could never just order a spring roll for lunch -
it's a giant plate of food and I bet they eat like that more than 3 times per day.

This picture is the sort of thing that pisses a lot of guys off. Part of the attraction to women who model is the provocation of the guy's natural instincts to want to breed with the woman. The look of masculinity in this woman to look as muscular as possible is what drives men away.

Then you have Bobby's obsession with muscular men, leaving a lot of people thinking that he needs a strong man in his life to look after him. Those out there who need to look as muscular as possible have a severe need to overcompensate. It really is disheartening.

It does not seem to be the case around here. I remember going to the shopping centres in the early 2000s. Obesity levels seen were quite obvious. But, if you look around town in recent years, people are usually either healthy weight range or just a little overweight.

I dunno. I figure being schizophrenic and underemployed is enough of a psychological drain for me as it is. Other than the cheaper electricity (and a couple of free months' accounts), I don't qualify for cheaper rego or the disability support pension.
