I wish I liked sea food, fish and things like that. Making lunch or dinner would be so much easier if I could handle a tin of tuna.

I agree with Chris. Myself at around 5'7 67.9 kg at the moment, my base goal is 2540 cals to maintain. On a normal day , when the kids are at school, my steps bring it up quite a bit. I am in maintence. I just had a week eating less, (felt unwell) and lost , then have maintained the next week while eating over. So it seems…

Not anyone I know. I was dropping a lady off at a bus stop and a stranger tried to get in my car. Um no.... I work afternoons, and finish at 10 pm. The last bus leaves about then and it's a 20 min walk to the stop. So pretty much, giving people rides is necessary. When I was without a car for a few weeks I always gave my…

I tend to think of Manu Fidel , a French born, now Australian chef and 'the flavour' said in a goofy accent. He makes wonderful sauces and blends his French training really well with local ingredients. He is great to watch on tv lol. Also French pastries. Though here (in Brisbane Australia) I find we get the best tasting…

I actually know a lady who is on that 'diet'. She is a hard gainer and a family block of chocolate was what the dr ordered.

Only thing is even that article suggest that some people need iron and vitamin b injections such as these ladies have had. So not quite quack in this particular thread....

We get double yolkers sometimes and oh the flavour. My parents also have son bantam hens now and we give my egg loving daughter the little ones. They seem to me almost all yolk.

I am not sure how I feel about some of those combinations, but I am glad you enjoyed your lunch :drinker: My lunch of the week was some Mexican flavoured burgers that Jamie Oliver has bought out in a supermarket here (Australia) It reminds me that I need to start experimenting with seasoning in my home made burgers again.

It seems they edited out the fat shaming and the non yoga pants shots. I am happy that the fat shaming ones are gone.

I have never really liked cereal , but I now enjoy Swiss muesli mixed with youghurt. Yum. The rest of the family likes- Vita bix Porridge Cocoa pops (rice crispies) Mighty grain (Coles brand nutra grain for those in Australia ) Honey wheats Sultana bran And when it's on sale, crunchy nut corn flakes I find that cocoa pops…

Oh man, it took me so long to reply she quit. How dare my 5 year old interrupt me. She is ruining my forum time :explode: Now blaming her sounds a little silly doesn't it?

I finally found the page you linked , darn iPad. I still consider it a martial art, as it has combat roots (martial). Judo, Brazilian Jujitsu , both practised as martial arts and played as sports. Aikido is a gentle evolution of jujitsu as well. Not practised as a sport, but has the same roots in Samurai Traditions. Muay…

Muay Thai is a martial art. As is boxing at it's core.

It's a martial art class, please treat it as one.

I know with aikido it is really hard when parents don't get their kids on the mat in time. The class is only an hour long and if they miss warm ups, they miss out on some of the most important techniques. It's not as bad with the adults, but warm ups are just as important. I would think she would have said something the…

I attempted cup cakes for my eldest birthday at school, but they didn't turn out lol. So both my girls had bought cup cakes for their birthdays lol. Kindy (4 and 5 year olds) is nut free. Trace of nuts is okay, and they are teaching the kids about food safety. One child doesn't eat cakes, so her mother has given them a bag…

3000 calories isn't necessary a lot of food. Think of it as 6 x 500 calorie meals. Or 3 x 700 calorie meals and the rest snacks and drinks. Work out what you are eating now and then see how you can add calories and nutrients to your day. I like cheese, home made beef burgers (cheap mince) , pasta, rice, bread, chicken…

I find most calculators hard for me to figure out. According to my fit bit I am burning around 2500 calories a day. I use it for all walking activity and am estimating around 100 cals per ten minutes when lifting. This is a wild wild guess lol. I have being eating around 3000 plus a day. Last week I decided I was starving…

Please be very careful taking another persons medication. Seriously you can end up much worse of if you have a reaction. Personally I would never do anything like that.

I have a lot of the symptoms of adrenal fatigue. As in if I do an online survey I tick quite a few boxes. I have had low iron and b 12. My vitamin D is up and down. My thyroid is wonky. My GP is thinking I am hyper and that's why I have sleep trouble. Having kids doesn't help much. What I have done to help myself in the…

Great interview. Thank you for sharing the knowledge guys :drinker:

My base pancake recipe is, one egg, one cup of self raising flour, one cup of milk. I use a measured cup, but I have seen Jamie Oliver us any cup. As long as the milk and flour are roughly the same amount. Low fat milk works as good as full cream when I've made them. Also they are pretty plain, so I sometimes mash banana…

We do Aikido. In the kids classes , it's all about play based learning and even the older kids 10-12 years enjoy that. The games are designed to teach Akido princables of course . Popular games that aren't just for aikido include funky dancing, where they listen for a sound to stop, get up and start dancing , then stop and…

This ^ and because you are a teenage male , you have a lot of growing to do. I know of a guy who had a growth spurt at 29 lol.

I am dreading the teenage years. My almost eight yearold daughter as had a hard couple of weeks at school. Full of stress and her teacher is going to ask for advice on what we all can do to help. What's even harder is she is pretty smart kid academically. She tries so hard. My always said that as a coach , 7-8 year old…

One of the little girls in my eldests kids class is very allergic. Basically touching another kids hand or even pencils if they have recently had peanut butter could cause a life threatening reaction. So while it is a pain in the *kitten* , we aren't sending peanut butter sandwiches or the like to school this year. It's…

Actually peanut butter and jam sandwiches got my eldest through her 6/7 yearold growth spurt. Unfortunately a girl she sits with at lunch has a nut allergy now. Her food range has increased this year though .

Hi, I just joined up. My name is the same as on here :smile:

There is a website called eatopia. There is a lot of information on there about why what this girl is doing is the best for her recovery. Basically the body needs all the calories it can get to repair the damage cause from the disorder . OP- good luck :drinker:

We always try and have some basics in our pantry. It hasn't happened often , but having flour, powdered milk and pasta in the pantry has gotten us through to pay day. Also beans and rice. We don't go nuts on being "prepared" , but we try and have 2-4 weeks of food put away. It helps mostly when a big bill comes in.
