I've lost 18 pounds so far by keeping track of my calories and drinking unsweetened iced tea instead of diet soda. When I want something tasty I eat it, because I know it's important to not punish myself and instead focus on a large scale lifestyle change. Protein shakes for breakfast are awesome. This morning was a banana and a shake with 16 ounces of 1% milk, two scoops of Optimum Nutrition double chocolate, and two tablespoons of PBFit peanut butter powder. Tasted good, took no time to make, and filled me up. Beer4TheBeerGod fucked around with this message at 15:21 on May 14, 2016 |

To lose weight, I've done a bunch of small things, mostly not drinking my calories and turning more vegetarian. I mean if I wanted to lose a few more pounds, I'd buy a JPEG, but I'm not willing to make such a pledge yet

I have lost 41kg (89 pounds) in the last thirteen months. All I did was trying to eat like a human being, and go for a walk daily. I have about that much to go before I reach my goal. Wish me luck..XD

Nation posted:I wonder if a judge will consider the TOS changes - in lock-step with failed delivery dates and previous promises to release financials and refunds - will ever be taken into consideration or if everything will be held to your argument that 'they clicked the accept button on our forum' to accept the terms of the service cig provide, except said service has not got past a tech demo. It won't come to that. If you read both the Blockbuster and Zappos decisions, you will see that the judge in one of those cases pretty much said that if one side has the ability to unilaterally change the agreement, then it's one-sided and unenforceable. The issue with Star Citizen is going to be two-fold. Anyone who wants to argue that none of this matters, knows more than the $500/hr attorneys who do this stuff for a living 1) A case gets filed in Federal court. CIG will try to get it tossed and sent to arb. They will fail on merits. That fight alone could pan 60-90 days. 2) CIG would have to prove in #1, why the case belongs in arb, and not Fed court. They will bring up the ToS. And that's where every facet of the argument begins. 3) CIG would then have to prove that the plaintiff was in fact subject to the arb clause in the ToS. Which presents a problem for them because, like me, a lot of backers are not; and CIG has to prove that they did in fact login to the account, agreed to the ToS etc. All it takes is for ONE person to prove they didn't agree to the ToS v1.1 or higher, and CIG will fail to send the case in arbitration court. http://www.dereksmart.org/forums/topic/star-citizen-tos-v1-1-expiration/#post-2322 quote:12-09-13 // Original from RSI website pre-Kickstarter - no arb clause

I lost 26 pounds by becoming pregnant, if anyone wants to try that. In seriousness, I've lost that much DURING the last 9 months, but it's obviously because I've stopped drinking entirely, have started eating smaller portions (because I have less stomach space) and have stopped eating anything after 6 or 7 pm (because it makes me feel sick). Also a massive increase in how much water I drink. I can't really exercise but I imagine that throwing in an hour at the gym or on a bike trail would help as well.

Tippis posted:You are only bound by the TOS you've agreed to — that's the whole point, and no amount of foot-stomping on your end will change this. Contrary to CIG's claims, as the case in question proves, simple use of the website does not qualify as assent to any updates, nor does simply having it posted there qualify as giving notice to those who have signed some earlier version. Yup. As in my previous post, someone is subject to the ToS depending on when they created the account. If you created the account after 08-13-2013, then logged in - for whatever reason - after 08-29-2013, you would have had to agree to ToS v1.1. Similarly, if you logged in after 02-01-15, you would be subject to ToS v1.2 if it was presented to you, and you agreed to it. CIG has to prove - in all cases - the last time that someone actually logged into their account, agreed to the ToS etc. The mere act of having an account, while browsing the website without logging in (e.g. access to concierge, concern forum etc), does NOT make you subject to the ToS in play at the time. Which is precisely why I have several accounts which are subject to different ToS. As digital goods are legally allowed to be bought and sold, it's all very legal; regardless of the fact that they closed my original account (which btw was only subject to ToS v1.0 at the time - as Ortwin himself confirmed in a legal response that I had never downloaded/played the game)

Related to the TOS stuff, if you have a website that pulls the same poo poo that CIG does--say they update their TOS and throw up a splash page that you have to agree to in order to continue using the website--what's to prevent the end user from saying "I do not agree with your new TOS, I don't accept the terms, and I want a refund for the product that isn't completed and that I will not be able to use because of this"? If someone bought a JPEG for a ship that isn't completed yet and refuses the new TOS then how can anyone argue that they aren't due their money back even with the "oooh but the PTU is out now!" argument? The answer is going to involve the US having terrible consumer protection, isn't it.

The one that claims that a comedy forum several years removed from the height of its influence and popularity and Derek Smart are a bunch of idiots who know nothing, just jealous, and aren't intelligent enough to grasp what they think will be the best video game experience in history, and yet at the same time this group of nobodies are the single most dire threat to the dreamiest dream team of game designers ever assembled, headed by Space Jesus, the greatest figure in gaming who ever lived since he was a little girl, their expert skill at making space fantasies reality, and their war chest of $113 million.

The irony of a sub-forum dedicated towards mocking/fighting Star Citizen being more supportive to one another than the actual Star Citizen community is just one of those things I can't help but marvel at. Those drat goons, passing recipes, providing dietary advice, all while archiving what CIG actually say, how dare they try and down our community in such a way!

So there's a very strong argument that anyone who backed SC through the KS, but hasn't ever logged into the RSI website would only be bound to the original ToS v1.0. I didn't back SC during the KS campaign (or through the RSI website for that matter), so I can't comment on the KS page. I think it would be good if anyone who is (or was) a KS backer to post this info there. Otherwise, KS backers that pledged, filed it at the back of their mind, but are now wondering why the game isn't out yet, don't mistakenly create an account on the RSI website to ask (thereby unwittingly commiting themselves to the latest ToS).
