Why is retaining water such a bad thing? Sure, it may make the number on the scale a little higher, but it doesn't help you lose fat. Ultimately, "weight loss" is a misnomer. We don't really want to lose weight, we want to lose fat. That is the goal. Weight is just a way of measuring fat loss (and an inaccurate one too,…

Fear of eating "chemicals" is ridiculous and entirely misinformed.

I lost a bunch of weight in summer 2011 when I was unemployed. It was a huge confidence boost, and I genuinely feel that the added self-confidence helped me secure a job in November 2011. I don't think that weighing less helped me get the job in any way (I was still massively overweight and had a long way to go - I'd just…

You can have up to six meals in your diary. Go Settings > Diary Settings and you can add and rename your meals there.

Just started playing Luftrausers. I'm not normally a fan of Shmups, but I got a coupon for it on Steam, so I thought I'd give it a go. Loving it so far. The plane movement is fantastic, and the customisation seems really great too.

I was just joking. I was going to post "heh, just joking with you" at the end of that paragraph, but I figured it was already pretty evident, and nothing kills a joke like pointing to it and saying "hey guys, look. I made a joke". Turns out trying to use sarcasm and dry humour on the internet kills the joke pretty badly…

True nerds would use the proper numbering for Final Fantasy games. Final Fantasy II and III were NES games, not SNES games. Final Fantasy IV and VI were SNES games, but were stupidly re-named to II and III outside of Japan. Either way, I don't have that much experience with SNES RPGs. Prior to the Playstation I was an…

Just throw it all in a bucket and I'll eat it. Sweet, salty, I don't care.

Don't diet. Change your lifestyle one step at a time. If you try to do too much at once, the chances are that you will fail. Take things slowly, one step at a time, and before you know it you'll see a massive difference. Make one small change a week. Maybe if you like sugary drinks, replace them with diet ones. Or if you…

I bought Prison Architect a while ago. Really loved the tutorial mission with the execution. It was really dark and powerful. I wasn't expecting anything like that from the game. It blew me away. Really looking forward to more stuff like that when the game is finished. I don't think the gameplay is quite there yet (or at…

Yeah, the Humble Bundles are a bargain, but I usually own nearly all of the games in them already. I normally buy them anyway for the soundtracks and maybe the one or two games in the bundle that I don't already own.
-
Yeah. Recently I've been into a few roguelikes such as Spelunky and FTL. Been playing Starbound a little, too, although I'm trying not to play too much of that until it's fully released. Same with Kerbal Space Program, which is also great. Indie games are outclassing AAA games so often these days. I mean, my favourite game…

As much as I love Star Wars, I'm fairly sure that the new movie is going to be terrible.

What did the doctor say when he/she gave you the results? I'm sure they'd be able to better inform you of why you might be seeing those results than a bunch of strangers on the internet could.

Feel free to add me, everyone. I have lots to lose.

I'm nearly 400lb so I have even more than 100lb to lose, but I've set my goal at 100 for now.

The majority of men are decent people who occasionally mess things up by doing something idiotic because they're only human. The majority of women are the same.

Gotta love all of the people ignoring the comments that make it clear that this is a Doctor Who joke, and posting a serious response anyway. Wouldn't it be great if you really could just turn your fat into cute little adipose!!!

The other day I nearly called another person fat in a scenario like that, but I realized what I was about to say and shut up. At work, a girl said that me and him look like we could be related, and I nearly said "you just think that because we're both fat". Fortunately my brain kicked in before my mouth opened (which is a…

I've been revisiting FTL now that the Advanced Edition content came out. That game has such a great sense of style and is extremely fun, even though it's incredibly frustrating.

Hi, I'm Matt. I'm 24 and 6'1". I started losing weight this January at over 400lb. I don't know how far over, because my scales only went as high as 400lb. Around a month ago I finally got below that 400lb mark, and as of my last weigh in I was just over 389lb. I'm approaching my weight loss one step at a time. I'm not…

Yeah, the water tracker is an additional thing to help ensure you are properly hydrated. You'll want to log any drinks that contain calories in your food log also.
-
Your body does not care if other ingredients are mixed in with the water, it will still process the H2O in exactly the same way. Some people will tell you that anything with caffeine is a diuretic and therefore dehydrates you and not to count caffeinated drinks as water, however that is inaccurate. Caffeine is a diuretic,…

Take it slowly. One step at a time. Don't rush in and make a milion changes at once. That is a recipe for failure. Make one small change a week. Maybe if you like sugary drinks, replace them with diet ones. Or if you go for a takeaway regularly, skip one this week. If you like your chocolate, cut back on that this week.…

I just did a little bit of searching on the subject, I've found this scientific research on the subject: http://www.researchgate.net/publication/51113664_Effect_of_two_different_weight-loss_rates_on_body_composition_and_strength_and_power-related_performance_in_elite_athletes?ev=pub_srch_pub It basically suggests that if…

You'd be better off getting some low-calorie bread and topping it with tomato sauce (not ketchup, but a sauce more like a real pizza sauce) and some cheese, then toasting it under the grill for five minutes. That's still a pretty lame pizza alternative, but it'll still be relatively low calorie and I'm sure it would be…

I bought The Walk quite a while ago, but I have yet to actually try it out. I pretty much forgot about it. I'll have to give it a go the next time I go for a walk.
