Decided to cut weight on Tuesday 7th June, have so far gone from 14st 11 to 14st 4!


Edit:
Note - this initial loss might have been help by not eating all the pies.

I think it is due to the fact that you live in your mum's basement and the bogs being on the third floor.

Loads of quality time climbing those steps for some effective dumps

usually get the marble clad lift

I didn't say calorie restriction doesn't work I said daily calorie restriction doesn't tend to work... for many people at least in the long run in terms of keeping the weight off. That trial is interesting, possibly skewed by having to comply with the diet, in the real world I suspect many would not. I'd also like to know which group have put the most weight back on. Be interesting to know if no difference is also found for males.

Here is one study comparing calorie restriction with the 5:2 diet. linky Yes it is in women but then I'm female. Weight loss was the same in both groups.


The bit in bold is why you loss weight - it is a diet you could stick to.

There are other studies showing that both low fat, high carb and high fat, low carb diets also make you lose the same level of weight.

The reason they all work is due to calorie reduction.

The guy who invented the "Finger of Fudge is just enough to give your kids' a treat" slogan is now on a register for life.

Really? I thought the advert encouraged modest consumption of a pretty modest product. Fudges were small items, and the advert ("just enough") almost seemed to be promoting moderation. And it did use the word "treat", ie. something out of the norm.

Yeah but it was the thin edge of the wedge and where it started the marathon and many high calorie bars followed.

The guy who invented the "Finger of Fudge is just enough to give your kids' a treat" slogan later admitted he had done a great disservice to the UK. His advert was the first to promote snacking in the UK.

In the 70's people weren't slim because what they ate it was due to when they ate e.g. no snacking between meals.

But not as much as the 2 kilos you lost carrying it home and cleaning it!!

Bravo, Sir.

[shaunbhoy]

And you lost over a kilo when A&E removed NLyUK's dislodged dildo from your rectum.

There are a number of tried and tested methods that work quite well. FLC managed to lose 10 pounds of ugly fat overnight simply by chopping his head off!

Most amazing thing about old photographs now is not the old fashioned cars, the hairstyles, the clean streets, the heavy formal clothing. It is the fact that everybody - without exception - has an amazingly flat stomach.

And it's not just pictures from the 1930s I am talking about here. Your holiday snaps from the 70s too. Look at those people. Most of them did no excercise to speak of, never saw a gym, but young and old - completely slim. You almost forget that this is what normal human beings look like.

The media will sometimes joke about how terrible our diet was in the 70s. Oh really?
