This whole TDEE thing is like dangling a bone into a pit of snarling dogs, plus you're about to be hit by a wall of conflicting opinions. Honestly? Just obsessively log the calories and dont eat them back, that's what's working for me. This whole "eat to lose" nonsense is just confusing and I'm not convinced it's backed up…

Wow, that escalated quickly. Waiting for thread lockdown in T-minus 5... 4... 3... 2...

Tea is a hipster thing??? Where I'm from a cup of tea is the basis of all decent civilisation, and if I see some scruffy bespeckled ruffian with tattoos and a scraggly beard then I call the constabulary, because I've clearly apprehended a deserter from Her Britannic Majesties Royal Navy.

Thong thong thong!!!

stick a pixar/ dreamworks movie on my phone, slow jog and watch it all the way through. brave burns about 800 calories, the incredibles around 900 etc - usually takes about an hour and a half

it's me plotting to destroy humanity and sink all existence into a spiralling miasma of despair and hopelessness.

aww, where did you dig up that embarrasing old picture of me...??

I once ate a sandwich, then I lost my car keys and flushed my phone down a toilet. There might be something in this...

type 2 diabetes can't be reversed by diet - a body can be struggling, demonstrating the symptoms of diabetes and potentially once the stressors are eliminated (usually diet and weight related) then the symptoms can resolve (that's basically how gestational diabetes works, when women can become "diabetic" during pregnancy…

I thought we'd done this to death and decided it was a myth...?? Stavation mode doesn't exist until you're about to die (ie "actually starving") and even then, it's impossible to put weight on

That *is*, *genuinely*, *actually* what you call irony. Thank you for using that word appropriately. Y'all would have hated me in my teens and early 20's, because I was always skinny, could eat anything and didn't put any weight on. Then everything went horribly wrong around ages 25-26...

you kinda have to, if it's going to sell on ebay.

Hey - you speak for yourself!!!

dammit, you beat me to the cheap gag.

I'll add my voice to the chorus. If there was an easy way to do it, we'd all look like GODS!! I don't think i've lost much off my gut, it still looks hideous although empirically through measurement, i've lost 7cm off it in the last 6-7 weeks. I don't follow the MFP plan, because I don't eat exercise calories back and run…

"Mmmmmm yum, om nom nom nom!!!"

with respect, yes i do know what i'm talking about - by way of validation my experience comes from over 20 years experience the NHS and RAF nursing services, working in acute medicine, orthopedics, accident & emergency, aeromedical evacuation and telehealth. it's not science, or physics, it's errant nonsense - my practice…

don't bother with chiropractors, because they are fraudulent conmen with no real medical training or knowledge. go see a doctor. (i'm sorry if that rather inflammatory statement offends anyone, but i'm deeply offended by pseudoscience and quackery).

if you post up the photobucket code i'll tweak it so the pics show...

Exercise.

nurse.

PMRAFNS (princess marys royal air force nursing service) at the role 3 hospital in bastion, helmand. some people said i came back more cynical than when i went - i prefer to think of it as having a healthy dose of ****ing perspective

OP is absolutely correct, people can be cruel. I can confirm this after doing an extended tour in Afghanistan.

lemme just sort that for you...

I feel your pain - my family are too busy being heroin addicts, alcoholic or dead to give much of a **** about my weightloss.

if i were a hot chick - yibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum

cool profile pic - YOU ALL SAW THAT, THAT ORPHANAGE ATTACKED *ME*!!
