Thanks, but is there any actual research? The links just go to articles using phrases like "the diet claims to..." and "according to the author..."

I'd love you to share all your research so I can find out more - can you post links please?

Very successful for me; in two weeks I lost 14 raspberries.

Persuade someone to fall off their chair, see what happens then...

"we could buy a treadmill for a fraction of the cost. " Or...go outside for free? Go on, give it a try, treadmills are the lite-beer of the running world; all the effort with none of the fun!

Convince yourself of this; it's easier to turn down when it's always there. Imagine an office where there are NEVER snacks, not for months, then one day there is a plate of cakes. You'd be forgiven for being tempted as it's unusual and you don't know when it'll happen again. But bucketloads everyday? It'll be there if you…

Maybe they're judging you by their own bad experiences :-)

Apart from those 9 on Monday. Other than that you are rock solid.

Me, I guess, sort of. Small breakfast, regular lunch, 5 mile run then... **14 inch haggis pizza (seriously) , 2 bottles of Peroni, baked NY cheesecake with dairy ice cream** And I'm not sorry.

I do a long run (12 miles) on Sunday, shorter faster run on Tuesday (about 5/6 miles) and a short run followed by hill sprints on a Friday (usually about 3 miles + 6x 30secs up a hill). Best for me is gym legs on a Thursday, and my two other gym days on Monday and Saturday. It's working OK for me. I used to do gym legs on…

Let Limmy explain it all...! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwr6_015ROo

This is a brilliantly simple example of how so many people equate food to fun. In the past I have used my "supportive" look, coupled with the phrase, "What? It's only a piece of cake..." (add, "It's not love" if you're feeling particularly troublesome...)

That's a fantastic difference! Good luck maintaining your loss, your old pictures will begin to feel more and more like someone else is in them!

Earphones ARE dangerous in a race. You need to hear what's going on around you, that's why deaf people aren't allowed to take part. **Inflammatory Sarcasm Alert** Seriously, I've run with earphones in and out, or sometimes started with them in but they end up getting annoying. On training runs they are good for motivation,…

"And don't heel strike." Did you see this article? "‘Minimalist’ running style may be undermined by new findings from Kenya". I don't like the word "undermined" but it's worth a read.…

Provide a link to peer reviewed research backing this up please, otherwise it's obviously made up to sell me something.

Only 2 1/2 out of 9. Must train harder..... :-)

Shovel your snow, then shovel your neighbours' snow. You'll get fit AND popular :-)

There's stuff at my work all the time. If it's been specially baked by someone, I'll try a bit. But if it's just been bought in a shop, what's the big deal? It's just a biscuit, after all.

Me, I love it. I run better during winter for some reason, cold and dark, than I do hot and bright in the summer. I bought a pair if trail shoes in the sales and enjoy the way snow makes me have to think about balancing, it feels like more of a whole body workout!

The kitchen, then the gym :-)

Or this :-) http://bodyforlife.com/downloads/exercise_guide.pdf

Nice one :-) My work is FULL of biscuits today and I have eaten none of them. I mean, they're only biscuits after all.

Once every 2 weeks .

I'm off work for two weeks so changed my activity level from lit to sedentary. Other than that, no change. Even managed a booze-free night out tonight :-)

Wouldn't that be SBNN? :-o

No, I like it specifically BECAUSE I get to be alone!

I'm doing 11 miles on Sundays, 5ish on Tuesdays and 4+hill sprints on Fridays. Mixed with gym on Monday, Thursday and Saturday seems to be keeping me trim :-)

Obviously, because fire IS light. It probably even adds more.

This explains everything. I microwave all my sun rich food and have been feeling less healthy recently. A quick biophoton check (you can do it online) shows I am only 35% charged! Now looking for something to buy to make it better! I'll let you know how I get on.
