I hope you get a response.
i'm sure there are also ways to improvise.

Lol working out in Lagos is useless. Not only for the reasons you stated, but the air is terrible. Talk about robbing Peter to pay Paul. Sure, your body needs the exercise, but your body also needs clean fresh air. Going outside to walk or run, inhaling all that nonsense, is not worth it. The only safe exercise is indoors, either in your home or a gym facility.

That's my case too. Smaller amounts of eba and rice, more meat, and more water.

for people who have lived in lagos all their lives and have lived long enough to survive the worst, their body is acclimated to the air so there is not much problem with it.   as long as you don't live under third mainland bridge (for the person who made the comment about molue and danfo) you should be fine.

for me, I don't favor the idea of gyming. it's for people who have lots of leisure time.

we keep blaming fats and oil but the #1 cause of obesity is excess CARBOHYDRATES

I really don't know why we keep blaming oils and fats.
anybody with a personal experience can tell you that in order to lose weight. you  need to get rid of these things: rice, bread, pasta and noodles, potatoes, and ounje okele.
Dr Atkins diet is a little bit extreme but he got the right idea when he said carbs is what you need to watch out for.

I don't think the solution is for women to visit the gym. they can cut down on carbs and exercise in other ways like taking the stairs, parking 10 mins away from their destination and walking the rest etc. walking to the supermarket and other places. doing dishes manually instead of with dishwashing machine, hand washing clothing once in a while etc. basic physical work like that.
keeping stress levels down and eating vegetables to keep their energy up. because exercise is the last thing on your mind when you are fatigued.

because there is no incentive for it.
most men prefer a girl with big boobs and yansh. but curvy women are most prone to getting fat.
I personally have a friend who doesn't want to exercise because she's scared her ikebe will be the first place to shrink.

I was going to say she looks like Angelique Kidjo until I saw the body.
I think the bald head look fits better on slim women.

something nobody is mentioning here is the fact that if your mother-in-law loves you, you may just be the luckiest bride in the world. because she will receive, cherish, love and spoil you. she will treat you just like her own daughter.

my dad's mom really loves my mother. I want that kind of close relationship with my mother-in-law and hopefully my future daughter-in-law.

mother-in-laws are particularly wicked to daughter-in-laws. rather than son-in-laws.
so it might really be jealousy.

the woman have raised this boy with all the love in the world and lived their entire life for him. and all of a sudden some random woman is taking him away from her. It can be psychologically tough for the mother-in-law to bear.

most women on here agreeing with OP (including OP herself) will most likely end up becoming "wicked mother-in-laws" too. it's a natural thing in females.

ok. i'm out of here.

they say the pay is great too.
but the Chinese seem like such proud people. I guess they are also trying to be practical.

oh my. then you haven't passed by a road where someone has pissed before. esp. in naija. doesn't matter if two or ten people eased themselves there. it stinks! the filthy trash littering abt in that picture will make it even worse.
and how can you accurately judge d smell ur own waste. only others can tell u how much it stinks. I think the smell gets worse over time sef.

anyways, this topic is getting disgusting. I want to puke

yea but do u know what the stench of your piss will do to the many people passing by that bush?
bush won't smell disgusting/unsanitary. . . until you and a few others pee in it.

engineerd:
A better question you should have asked is why is it that the only Nobel prize blacks ever win are either for PEACE OR LITERATURE

lol that's a good one.

I'll assume there are no restrooms nearby. otherwise, that's very irresponsible of him.

[quote author=eku_bear link=topic=777124.msg9302857#msg9302857 date=1318134761]For all I know the nitrogen in his piss will make the bush/trees grow faster. Maybe the trees are thanking him for the food he has given them [/quote]rotfl you are crazy

Desola:
Yorubas seem to be falling for this trap - hook, line and sinker! This is just a trap to get Yorubas to argue against each other over religion for the ibos to relish.

Fact is, be it Muslim, Christian or Osun worshiper, Yorubas don't give a hoot about religious differences. Our culture is so strong so much so that it binds us irrespective of our religious orientation. As opposed to some, a Yoruba christian believes that the muslims serve the same God, hence the reason why you see us getting on swimmingly.

I am a christian whose background is Islam. I have muslim names, yet, i've never practised the religion. 95% of Yoruba christians have muslims in their family, that if not immediate, then it would be extended.

We don't fight over religion so abeg find something else to say. Try harder!

true talk 
same here with my family too.

yorubas are proof and evidence that christians and muslims can coexist peacefully.
muslims on average tend to be less wealthy materially. but they are very wealthy spiritually. and we christians need to emulate that in our faith sometimes.

How can they be backward when they control the state apparatus. and maybe rightly so because they are the most traditional and the ones partially responsible for sustaining our yoruba culture.
whether christian or muslim. we Yorubas will always be united. obviously you have a problem with that.

it's high time this aloy-emeka is banned sef. where is Seun when you need him 

I don't understand what you're talking about.

my point was there are hundreds of equally or more inspirational people out there.  people I even have never heard of and will never hear about. they just happen not to be presidents or popular figures on the international scene. a.k.a Westerners haven't heard much about them.
that doesn't mean sirleaf johnson doesn't deserve her prize. she did. she's an inspirational woman.

13volts:
Apart from wole soyinka winning a prize on some literature stuffs, no Nigerian has or was even nominated for the prestigious prize, the latest winners did nothing compared to the likes of dora akunyili, laila dogonyaro and a host of other Nigerian woman.

of course not.
The nobel peace prize is subjective. there are ordinary men and women out there who are unrecognized but have done much greater things than many of the nobel prize winners combined.
what can we do? we're not the ones giving the prize out. if we were, at least 60% would have gone to Africans.

you are one psycho.
post d link.

how did you find that anyway? because I really don't believe you

arsenefc:
I have access to Jenifa's FB as well. Nothing big deal about her, below average

in your dreams.
what a psychopath.

^ I wonder o.

Good observation. no Yoruba lady is naturally fair

stfu.
Kolomentality dey worry you.


you are right Ezeuche.
lots of dark beautiful women out there.

Yoruba women are def. the most beautiful in the world.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=775562.msg9290992#msg9290992 date=1317961841]She needs to endure? Are we still in the stone age?

She's entitled the right to choose her limit on endurance. I understand that poverty is an issue in Nigeria, coupled with Laziness. If she's enduring and her husband shows no potential to work harder, why endure that kinda life. 

Do you also have the divorce rates for Yorubas outside of Nigeria?[/quote]

he doesn't want to endure. but he wants the woman to endure.
what a hypocrite

the reason for the divorce is someone is tired of enduring. u can't keep on enduring forever. who knows what's going on in the igbo marriage and why the wife is forced to stay. maybe she can't refund the expensive bride price. all that glitters is not gold.

OP's comment:

I really enjoy dancing (do not know how good I am at it, but i enjoy it).

I really don't think I can do the whole go slow thing.

I am yoruba and we shake our body very well when we dance.

my suggestion is that he shld stick to owambe parties. or take up salsa.
clubbing is not for him.
