  • well, i tried to make lower cal versions of all the things I liked rather than end up with grilled chicken, stemmed veg and boiled spuds. Don't get me wrong, its nice but it isn't sunday lunch! To be fair, i don't eat all that every Sunday anyway but its nice to know that I can if i want to. I think just knowing I can't…
  • Totally! My mate was 5ft then lost 3 stone and is now just under 6ft! Really?....
  • She is bored, which probably explains posting in this thread.
  • My Husband belching...
  • Nah, sadly not. I've checked the maps though, there is nowhere called Skinny in this country so there is no way anyone could get to it. On a plus side, my Husband muttered that I was losing too much weight this morning.
  • Have you considered melting some and using it as a face pack? You could clean inside and out!
  • For Sci-Fi you can't really go wrong with Frank Herbert - Dune. It is a classic Sci-Fi novel that is easy enough to get into for those unfamiliar with Sci-Fi. For a shorter read which is surprisingly good not to mention shocking considering its age then I would highly recommend H.G Wells - War of the Worlds or The Time…
  • I'm not entirely sure what you are looking for, you said sci-fi but your examples were fantasy and many of the suggestions from others have been fantasy. Is that what you meant?
  • Not had any problems with it but I don't really use it regularly as I have an iPod. I did read something about some folks having issues and there was a fix. It was somewhere on the apple forums, sorry I can't be more help.
  • iPad air (mini if you want smaller). Get a case with keyboard in it. You can use mfp offline and then sync when you have connection. Most expensive tablet but definitely the best. Based on what you said though I would go for an iPad 2, heavier than the air but not "heavy" and significantly cheaper.
  • My best friend is male. He is a git to me. Takes the piss constantly, will poke fun at my achievements and s****** wickedly at my mistakes. I am more often than not the butt of jokes. He will taunt me with favourite foods when I'm dieting and all manner of wicked things. Why are we friends? Because although we all have a…
  • A fellow panda hater! I started wow in vanilla. So was at it for a good 7 years *cough*. Played a holy priest as main then had pretty much everything but rogue maxed, well I say I didn't have rogue, I did but was for the lock picking so that I could max out ravenholdt rep, that was before they dumbed it all down with those…
  • Well, to be fair for old games it is true, which is why I have a PC in reserve. I like quite a few old games, for newer ones there hasn't been anything I wanted to play that isn't available to mac, and, to be fair, even the old ones I can play on mac with steam or mac games. I have the PC because I'm a bit of a geek, not…
  • Did a course with them on food and eating related stuff. To summarise, without the finer details, they teach to have 3 main meals with occasional snacks. The main meal (breakfast) to start the metabolism going, then a midmorning snack to keep it going until lunch, etc. They say that this helps to lose weight or maintain it…
  • 30 (Can't see the face well though)
  • I wouldn't say mac's are bad for gaming. I have one specifically for that which I would pick over my PC every day. 3.5GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz 32GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 4X8GB 3TB Fusion Drive NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4GB GDDR5 Have a PC too because it is often easier to find games for that but…
  • It was really just to monitor what I was burning each day aside from "normal" stuff. I'd noticed a few people using the HRM's all day and then it occurred to me that this seemed an odd thing to do. I didn't want to presume that what I thought I knew was correct. But there again I also didn't want to use one all day and con…
  • Well being new here, having foolishly dared to comment on another post and getting myself a new one ripped (learnt something though, that the NHS in the UK are teaching people incorrectly mainly) i'm going to dare to comment again. I'm happy with the most recent new one that was ripped though, no need to replace it just…
  • OMG it is just a pedometer? for £50! Just had a look at the web site and aside from the fact that it uploads the info to their app I can't see that it is any different to a £5.99 pedometer. Why not just take the time to input the details yourself from one of those? Aftre all, you will be sitting in front of the computer…
  • i'm still unsure of what you are saying with that... are everyday activities already accounted for in the GDA or not?
  • Is that like the fit bug? sorry, no idea what it is...
  • Lol sounds like my idea of hell! When I say I dislike excercise, I'm really not kidding. If it fits into the category of "exercise" then I won't enjoy it. I'm looking for things that are not immediately obvious as exercise, if that makes sense?
  • I see what you are driving at but ultimately it is just as I said. I don't like it. I don't enjoy it and resent wasting hours of my week doing an activity I dislike when there are alternatives out there to it. I just wanted suggestions for alternative ways to get exercise. The horse riding I gave as an example. I don't do…
  • I did a food management course a couple of years ago and this was specifically covered. It is all down to the metabolism. Once you eat your metabolism starts to work burning it. This is why breakfast is so important, it starts your body working, so the earlier in the day the better. Around mid-morning you will have used up…
