Sexercize....What's that?

Yawn, nothing in that for me but thanks for the contribution.

My favourite so far.... Thanks.

Some real good ones, keep them coming.:drinker:

Oh dear, we should all have ignored this post and the OP member and see what happened ! Me thinks the dummy (pacifier) would have chucked out of the pram along with the toys. Motivation can be different for all people - for me it's accountability, for others it's a pat on the back, others its a pirate…

I have both M & F friends on here as well as some family. I am not looking for anyone or anything except support and motivation. I hope my comments on discussions and friends pages are not taken any other way. Some guys and girls will be looking - it's a good way to meet like minded people but we should all make our own…

Hi, I am going from 217 to 168 (that's the positive plan!) I have been on about 25 days and lost 5lbs so far with a weigh-in tomorrow. I am ex-services and a good buddy who appreciates some mutual support and I don't mind being told the truth when I stray!.Any guy feel free to add me. Thanks, S.

Reall well done, you look fantastic. Truly inspirational.

Well done, Sincerely

was the GPS off? I think it has to be off if training inside - mine is not that accurate for calories burned indoors.

Assess how much you want to lose over how long - don't be too drastic, just take the time and do it right. 1700 is a limit not a Target!!

1/3rd of the residues - Really? Organic farms have to have a physical barrier such as a hedge, track or river wherever there is a threat from spray drift from conventional farms. The threat of spray drift is minimal especially as most sprayers have to be tested annually and most use low drift nozzles. Also, the cost of…

One thing to consider; if you have a plate of mixed conventional vegetables - all of which have been sprayed numerous times - even though the pesticides residues are low (below Legal MRL - Maximum Residue Levels) you are still mixing chemicals - who knows what the end consequence will be after 40 years - this argument is…

You are correct in the technical term that Organic does not mean free range. But all lives stock in organic systems HAVE to have access to pasture (the general public know this as free range). The term free range is usually associated with a less intensive type of conventional farming with access to pasture usually…

Who pays my wages then? Organic Integrity is given by Certification - if you go to a farmers market and something is advertised as Organic ask to see their Organic Certifcate or ask for their Certification details. It is illegal to sell anything as Organic which is not produced on Registered Organic Land. It is a legal…

Yep, you are right most assurance schemes have set stocking densities for example RSPCA Freedom Foods allows laying hens to be stocked at 9 birds per square metre of housing - That is the Freedom Foods Standard (put 9 items of similar size to a hen in a metre square and see the amount of room they have). Organic Standards…

Great job and keep safe.

This is my job - I inspect organic and conventional farms for a living. There are certain things which people should definately buy as organic: 1: Eggs - conventional and free range egg farmers use chemicals in the feeds called Synthatic Amino Acids - some of these are banned in the human food chain as they are carcinogens…

This is a fantastic tip!!

Just budget for a small amount in your daily calories - This is about a lifestyle change not about quick fix and back out into the world again. I have the odd beer or wine, I also slip a snickers in when calories are availabe. If they are not available a 20 minute walk gives you some calories to play with.

Probably a good call... everyone needs a little lurve....

My Grandfather was called Ginger Middleton for obvious reasons - I find a redhead very attractive. Nuff said x

Dangerous game !! No right answer!! except you look good

I use a Garmin HRM and my calories are generally higher than the online MFP Calculator suggests. If you deduct 5% then you will be close enough.

Great job. You look fab

Born in Newcastle now live up the coast in Northumberland - any locals please feel free to add me.

5lb in 4 weeks

I joined the Royal Marines at 16 so had to be confident and independent.

Sunday morning, gives motivation for week ahead and you can some exercise in in the Sunday if things look grim on the scale.

Hi, Sodium (salt) intake seriously affects my weight loss. The first few weeks on here I had low sodium intake - not much exercise and lost a good 2lbs a week on 1950 cals a day. This last week or so I have been upping the exercise, keeping below calorie intake but sodium has been high. result no weight loss or low weight…
