apocalypsepwnie

Oh my ponies! How good was the mrdwc!! 2 of my league members were in the aus team and one got named in the dream team! Whoo!!! Australia was the surprising dark horse.

I haven't been here for 3 MONTHS and this is the second in my topics. ffs!

Merby is amazing. The men put their bodies so much more on the line than women do. It's really cool to see it progressing skills and tactics wise too.

Apocalypse Pwnie but everyone calls me Pwnie for short. Thanks, I think it's pretty special and love it when people understand it.

How long have you been scrimmaging for? Are the drills that you do close to scrimmage conditions? I find when we are practicing in drills I'm quite good at them but when things start getting to a point where it's random and I have to rely on timing it gets a bit messy. We do some drills where everyone is on the track…

oh and I have a love hate for pyramid drills of any kind. We do partners of 1-5 where you skate one lap each and then two laps... all the way up to 5 and back down. While you are off the track you are doing sit ups or whatever. Squat laps. 1 lap squat skating, 1 lap rest. 2 laps squat skating 2 lap rest. Up to 5 with a two…

The whirlpool. Getting everyone into 1 huge pack and the inside line continues to filter up to the front, across the front and back down the outside the whole time. Creating lines at the front, praticing waterfalling in a big group. Then add a jammer! Also with the new rule changes we've been practicing a lot of scrum…

Thankyou! I have all that stuff at home now and on hand always! That sounds yum yum yum and a great way to get fruit in for me. Breakfast tomorrow!

I may also change my carb focus to veg/fruit/complex rather than bread, wraps and potatoes. Urk that's going to be hard.

I use a digital scale and cups/spoons. I don't eyeball anything. I log everything I eat. My TDEE is 2300 and my calorie goal is 70% of that which is the lowest I can go. I've checked a few calculators and they all come up with the same amounts give or take 50 cals. My BMR is 1450. I use a HRM to get my exercise cals which…

I will say the last few days of my diary aren't good. I was out most of the weekend.

Thanks for the responses so far. I have added in vegetarian eating where I use soy based products and have found out that soy can actually work against me. I do not have any issues that need medication however I do have a very slightly underactive thyroid which is why I think the soy could be related. I started plateauing…

One of our NRDL has just moved over Booga. She's an amazing jammer and even better human!

Oh gosh the 25/5 is like raaaaaaaaaaahhh But honestly do not hate being short. There is no reason why you can't be as fast as taller girls with the same amount of strides. It's all about how long you have contact with the floor. Getting lower means you can push your foot out across the floor for longer. Do it standing…

Yah we do it a tonne. It's intergral in our game now. Those who are confident will bang it out on a bout but we are all taught and have drills where we circle others and do a lot of flipping on people or commonly known as the titty roll. So you'd be side on and then flip so you are backwards and have contact with them whil…

Hey Kink you'd know my girl Cutty who used to skate with NRDL and transfered. I have big love for her and miss her SO SO SO freaking much.

omg I heart you.

I drink a mix of dandelion tea, lemon juice and pure cranberry juice. It's nasty I'll say that but I put it in my green smoothie drink and between that and the green taste it evens out so I can drink the both.

Mine is available to my friends only. I have an online stalker so I do not need them having access to that. I have my diary open to my friends for 3 reasons 1) Why not? I'm sharing this with them and most people I know IRL. I've never had unsolicited remarks, if I did they would get deleted. 2) A few people I've inspired…

I started eating better when I had a housemate. It drove her insane. I wasn't interested in sitting down to watch movies with bags and boxes of crap surrounding us and all the other really unhealthy things she wanted to do. She felt like I wasn't interested in her friendship anymore and it made her see how terrible the…

Yep get some help. In the mean time though.... I have a processor and it's honestly the best purchase I have made in a long time. My step kids have some of the food issues you have so I just puree the veg thry hate into meals. Seems by what youve said though the only thing you may be able to do it with is meat patties. Buy…

I live in Australia and turkey just isn't very popular here at all. Thank god. I've tried minced turkey and it was extra lean or whatever and it was dirty as hell. I don't understand why people eat it unless they don't like other kinds of meat. I own a processor so I make my own minces from the meat I buy, particularly…

lol I have him. Dark hair, thick eyelashes, china blue eyes, sneaky smile and soft in the middle. Must have tattoos at least heavily on the arms. I like em cubby. Has a 'no friends' walk.

As long as I'm not overeating where I feel sick from too much, eating out of an emotion and it fits in with the calories I'm all good. If I went down the deprivation path I would feel guilty when I had it. You will get over it when you realise one meal wont hurt you. If it's making that big of an issue then give it a rest…

I saw a picture of myself and decided to stop eating cake for a month. 2 weeks later I joined MFP. I stick with it because I want this. And it's not hard. I don't deprive myself of what I like.

If you were to lay out all your food on a table and it looks mostly brown or beige. Some people call it oven food, where you just shove something in the oven from a packet. It covers most take away, cakes.. ya know anything but fresh fruit, veg and lean meat/fish.

Hmmm I seem to agree with other posters. I like a diet that isn't high in saturated fats however I know I still need them for healthy brain function and all that. A friend of mine has recently had a heart attack and her dr wants her to stick with a low fat diet. However, what I think she is missing is that she needs to…

I've never seen a pivot lay down, it's just stupid. It's really obvious that you are trying to force a penalty, I'd rather just be sneaky about it. I'm a jam timer so one whistle makes me happy. I am a fan of 1 knee starts when there is a power jam. Every frikken time though? Come on!!!

So soft drink is full of bread? Lollies and sweets are full of bread. Whoops. My bad.

Every time I've failed it's because I attach a negative emotion to food. The worse I believe it is the more I want it. Now that nothing is off the menu, I just have to work it in, I want those foods so much less. Chips are my downfall. I can eat chips all day. In 3 1/2 months I've had 2 servings and I was really…
