I do not trust the Pubs to put a moderate forward, and since they probably won't, Obama will surely win.

So, while the above stats do not speak directly to the thread's title question, we can extrapolate based on this information that men, once in the JWs are probably more likely to leave.

It is a well-known fact that men have less use for religion than women. Plus, just look at the demographics: there are way more women in the Hall than men, as is exemlpified by the fact that you can be the biggest janitor loser drunkard JW male and still get a hottie wife.
With that said, there is no need for guessing. From The Pew Forum:
What is the gender composition of Jehovah's Witnesses?
40% Male 60% Female http://religions.pewforum.org/portraitsThe Stronger Sex -- Spiritually Speaking

Another thing, Zid... the best thing is to build muscle at the same time as losing fat. That way you are building muscle that will in the end burn more calories. Any worthy exercise routine will involve a significant amount of weight and resistance training. I'd venture to say it's actually more important than cardio.

Is 20lbs over weight REALLY such a big deal? I mean I understand hundreds of pounds overweight, and the health risks and mental and physical problems ect, .......but 20lbs?
There are some people that just look healthier when they have a little meat on 'em.
It's not about what "looks healthier," but about actual health. For instance, you may have high blood pressure and 20 lbs may make the difference. In America 20 lbs overweight isn't a big deal because we are the fattest f***ing nation on the planet and like to feel better about ourselves, but pick up a 20 lb sack of potatoes and imagine that as pure lard wrapped around your stomach and thighs. Now does it seem healthier? Again, this isn't about image, but about actual health. Don't project your own insecurities on other people by encouraging them to stay unhealthy.

A few points I have gathered on my own journey:
1) Losing weight is "80% nutrition and 20% exercise," meaning that seemingly, about 80% of the effort in losing weight is just eating right. You can exercise like a madman (or madwoman) and still look fat if you don't get your diet under control.
2) Make a lot of small changes that are habit-forming. This is because permanently losing weight hinges on life style, not 10-week diets, "Master Cleanses," or overly-ambitious work-out regimens. Permanent change requires a new life style, nothing less. No one can make this kind of change without preparing themselves mentally for what that entails.
3) You want quick change, but bear in mind it is in the interests of almost the entire diet and exercise industry to offer you that, falsely. The best change is long-lasting and permanent. Therefore, you should think in terms of months and years, not days and weeks, and only choose diet and exercise routines that encourage you to establish a new life style.
4) There is no secret to losing weight. In fact, it is one of the simplest things, ever: You either consume fewer calories than you burn, or burn more calories than you consume. Energy in, energy out.
5) Never let discouragement stop you. Your body is a habit-loving machine. Change WILL happen.
6) Throw your scales away and never step on them again.
7) Focus on real foods and whole foods, and don't get side-tracked by organic culture. Organic foods are great, but there is a lot of "nutrition advice" that comes from the hippie quarters that is just plain wrong (e.g. that people don't need much protein).
8) Re-train your tastebuds. Less sodium, less starch, less sugar, more protein, more greens, more whole grains. Make as much of your food from scratch as you can. It will be healthier and will taste better and be cheaper.
9) For a few days at least, log everything you consume, just so you can take an objective look at what you eat. This can be the very first thing you do to change your life.
10) Finally, don't obsess over anything! Don't obsess over your image, and rise above the guilt the media wants you to feel about it! It's okay to go out and eat a cheeseburger once in a while. It's okay to eat chocolate, candy, soda, etc., just in moderation. Moderation is a boring word no one likes, because it means that we make long-term, life style choices, and those are the ONLY choices that can permanently change your life and body.

Disturbing Letters from/about/and TO the "FDS"...
by AGuest into the household of god, israel, and all those who go with... may you have peace!.
over the past week or so i have had reason to research various websites exposing the hypocrisy and heinous acts against children by the "wolves" of the wtbts.
various dear ones have taken up these issues and brought that "beast" (revelation 13:11-18) to task to a great degree.
