1 pound fish - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETSl8gWsFZ0

I'm about 10lb lighter than predicted but have been losing weight rapidly since the doctor reduced my calories to 1200 and told me not to eat back exercise calories

I always walk round a ladder

1200

I weigh 132kg my BMI is 40.7 but I have a resting heart beat of 53 , I really don't consider my self to be that fit , I do ride a bike 10 miles per day though

I used to regularly eat from macdonald's a 20 pack chicken nuggets with 4 sweet and sour sauces, supersize fries and a supersize chocolate milkshake. I work that out to be close to 2000 calories just for lunch. 2 litre coke per day 800 calories about. Quite easy to eat more than 5000 calories. I now eat 1200 per day :)

Under medical advice I have reduced my calories to 1200 and the doctor advised me not to eat back my exercise calories. I am a 6 foot male weighing 295lb I would love to manage on 1530 , but for the time being I'm on 1200. I usually have 2 poached eggs and toast for breakfast., soup and a roll for lunch (or something…

This website is quite good , I use it to check the reading on my HRM and calculate my net burn http://www.shapesense.com/fitness-exercise/calculators/heart-rate-based-calorie-burn-calculator.aspx

A few months back when I weighed 325lb my hrm said I was burning 850 calories for 1 hour cycling , MFP's estimate was fairly close to that , now I am 33lb lighter and quite a lot fitter I burn just over 500 on the same journey mfp is a bit out. I regularly check the HRM reading on this website…

I think you are more likely to meet a violent end in America or Hawaii than Italy :)

You can make a rehydration drink but it would have 128 calories Thats 1 tsp salt 8 tsp sugar 5 cups drinking water mix until sugar and salt are dissolved This replaces electrolytes when I was in South Africa parents were advised to give this to their children if they had diahorrea

Same here, I have been doing as the doctor said I sometimes don't feel I'm getting enough to eat. I was told to drop down to 1200 calories and not to eat back the exercise calories. I am male 6 foot tall and weigh 295lb my bmr is around 2200. I ride my bike for at least 10 miles each day which averages a 500 calorie burn.…

You look great

Read carefully it is YOU that wants the gun to kill someone with that YOU perceive to be a threat. The criminals carry guns to protect themselves from YOU

I have read about it a few times when I lived in South Africa , people forgetting about the one in the chamber or a gun with the safety off under their pillow, children seeing where their father has put the key for the gun safe and killing their friends , people seeing using "a law abiding gun owners weapon to end their…

Discussing weapons to kill people with is not civil . After all what do you want to carry the gun for, to kill someone if the situation arises where you consider it necessary , not very civil is it ? As I've said time and time again this is not something to be discussed here , go to a gun shop for advice

Just has no place here

But by carrying a gun you are 4-5 times more likely to get a hole in yourself possibly a few stray bullets for your family. I have reported this thread so hopefully a moderator will see fit to remove it.

It shouldn't be on a fitness website anyway

Figures quite a bit out for U.S. still a lot though . what staggers me is in 2005 there were 789 unintentional gun related deaths in the U.S. 41 homicides in 2009 in the u.k. - http://www.gunpolicy.org/firearms/region/england-and-wales Figures taken from, - UNODC. 2011. ‘Homicide in 207 Countries - England and Wales.’…

In uk police don't carry guns, its illegal and very difficult to get a gun. As a result firearm deaths per year averages about 40 as oppose to the U.S. which has more than 36000 firearm related deaths per year

My final comment on this subject which I feel has no place on a fitness website - http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn17922-carrying-a-gun-increases-risk-of-getting-shot-and-killed.html

I have similar stats , 49 years old, sw 327lb , cw 294 . I started cycling to work and back when I was at 327lb after a 1 year break from cycling, it was hard but I could manage it. The ride is 5 miles there 5 miles back. It has improved my blood pressure and combined with diet has helped me lose 33lb

Just looked it up for women between 4'10" - 5'1" they recommend a 14" frame. That is the seat tube is 14"

Our police don't carry guns , except in exceptional circumstances . I've lived in cities with serious gun crime in South Africa but never saw the point in carrying a gun . I also don't think this is the place to discuss it

That is the whole problem right there guns being legal and police carrying guns

A gun doesn't help anyone just kills people.

Never saw the need to carry a gun, obviously here in England its illegal to carry one. I never had one in the 20 years I lived in Johannesburg in South Africa cant understand why you think its necessary carry one ?

I had 2 poached eggs wrapped in a chapatti for breakfast 266 calories

I eat a lot of bread per day and have lost 32lb since March 2012, I was about 327lb when I started though so comes off quick to start
