And to be honest, your gym sounds far more interesting. My post would be more about the behaviour of some of them which is pretty entertaining and sometimes irritating. I'll let you know when I post it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-67656606930933264612008-08-28T13:39:00.000+08:002008-08-28T13:39:00.000+08:00My BMI is around 20-21 (it depends on how much cho...My BMI is around 20-21 (it depends on how much chocolate I've had lately -right now it is more like 21 since I've just been on a eatiday, sorry, holiday). <BR/><BR/>I don't think BMI or scale numbers tells very much about your health, however, seeing that muscles weight more than fat, and I believe I have a fair bit of muscles in my legs (or well, at least I should have some seeing how much running I do). I have basically been the same size since I was 14, as I have always worked out and eaten like a horse. (I guess I should think about that eating thing now, however, seeing that my metabolism eventually also will slow down.. *swallowing hard*) <BR/><BR/>Can't wait for your gym attire post! Will you sneak in your camera and capture some 'golden moments' too?!Jonna Wibeliushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08954672453008704738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-86336921102623746372008-08-28T12:55:00.000+08:002008-08-28T12:55:00.000+08:00So Jonna how much do you weigh?

It is completely crazy what some people wear.<BR/><BR/>I disagree that people can wear what they want. They should consider other gym members and ideally all the girls should wear as little as possible :-pAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491088023973371313.post-10748826026116874952008-08-28T11:17:00.000+08:002008-08-28T11:17:00.000+08:00njd -seriously, ppl say that to you?!?!? Hahahhaha...njd -seriously, ppl say that to you?!?!? Hahahhahaha... that's just... so Chinese!! Yesterday I had lunch w a Chinese friend and I told him that in Europe we don't really comment on other people's weight, even if they have put on a few kilos... He was quite amazed. <BR/>-so if I comment you think it is rude? he asked. <BR/>-well, yeah, a little bit! I think my weight is none of your business. <BR/>-Oh...

I think it is ok for me to say, "Why are you wearing a regular bra? Your boobs are going to hang to the floor by the time your 35!"

They are learning by trials and errors. Please do tell them. They would appreciate it as long as you do it respectfully.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
