i still use stones as its what i grew up with .. then i started work after the metric changes started up.. i used to sell yards of cable but they came on a 50m drum .. try telling an oap she wants 5. whatever metres instead of 5yrd .. lol Having said that.. the brits confuse one another on a daily basis .. my doctor cant…

i went from about 20 cups of normal tea with milk to around 10 cups of green tea a day now ..cant look at normal tea anymore which causes fun on planes and in restaurants when i ask for a cup of hot water as i carry around a supply with me when i go out as most places very rarely do flavoured green teas.

thanx for the advice and well wishes..ill get by i'm sure.. gonna miss the workouts for the week so wont need to shower everyday.. i also have skin conditions so i shower after every workout but only wash my hair say twice in a week otherwise the eczema kicks in on my scalp n its really crap. Gonna be a lazy week ahead for…

I like this idea lol Luckily I only have two days at work then three off :)

Thanks all. Yes I can still use shower lol I was told not to get any water in my ear that's all.. But the thought of doing exercise this week n smelling rank kinda puts me off lol Think by the end of the seven days of antibiotics I'll need a big push back into my routine

hell no lol

i can now buy size 30" trousers and fit into a small tshirt :) previously a med tee and size 34" trousers

london aside .. most of the small towns in the uk are just that ..SMALL ..lol i had similar issues with a recent trip to new york .. beforehand i started walking/jogging 5 miles a day to prepare and i was fine..i walked from central park to battery park and back again plus all in between on 2 occassions .. you should be…

i first started running on the spot in my small office at work. sure it was boring as hell but it got me used to breathing properly etc etc.. then i moved into the empty warehouse where i work .. great for running in cold weather. try the on the spot stuff first at home till you feel confident enough to go outside .. it…

ive just spent 2hrs reading this thread of yours and i must say .. what a transformation and what a great guy you are for replying to so many peoples questions. This is what i thought mfp would be about .. people helping others and taking the time out to alleviate confusion. Unfortunately the real world dictates that some…

i dont but gifts so dont recieve any .. lol i do however treat myself .. already booked my february holiday to new york, so my xmas wish is that my job lasts out till at least the end of january so i can afford to eat in new york :)

Well to top it off I've just been shopping and had to buy a size 32 jeans I've been a size 34 for about fifteen yrs. Then to make things better I tried on some straight leg jeans as well and had to go back for a size 30 !!!!!! Well chuffed

Never look back … you can't change whist already happened. Trust your instincts they usually end up being right in the end & stay single .. its much easier

makes sense.. i cant run in the heat at all..i tried in new york in august and half a mile in i had to give up.. i workout at night in a cold warehouse..no heating and i always end up with no shirt on as i cant stand to be too hot .. last week i went cycling and as it was cold out i wrapped up warm only again to find i…

surprisingly enough yes they do..but the countertops i umyself doing while watching the kettle boil .. lol .. i tend to workout at work on a hard concrete floor so knuckles kill with only a thin yoga mat under me.. im the same with full planks..on arms im fine but wrists i bail out of after about a minute .. i hate being…

i have to make do with counter top press ups as i tend to hurt my wrists doing the normal ones..even though i do struggle with around 15 of them as opposed to 50 counter tops .. but im sure the counter tops are still doing me some good :) ..

i'm 5'9 and currently at 166lbs would like to be below 154 but will see .. never worked out until now ..not very muscly or heavy set .. I'm trying to lose the weight and keep the lean muscles I'm building up right now..that would be ideal for myself.

Wham! - make it big tour - Queens hall Leeds - 14th dec 1984

Into the groove - Madonna

i try and do at least 5miles or more jogging/walking every other day.. 3 1hr dumbbell sessions on alternate days and try n get in 8mile cycle rides on my day off. Feels great :) As well as trying to fit in 60squats and 100 counter top push ups every day :)

it definitely wasn't just whining.. lol i guess it hit home when i felt my head get hotter n hotter so i just caved in and let it be… ill be back at it in a couple of days I'm sure but for the next couple of days I'm deffo having a lie in.. lol

only had a sore throat n tickley cough .. lol ill live ..i hope ..lol oh .. and i wasn't crazy..i started back on the small weights first off … :)

Thanks sueinAz ..im not a die hard i just felt bad for having a week off n thought i'd get back on the horse as it were .. i guess i have learned the hard way.. lol

i couldn't do any workouts at all while i was sick..i was too weak .. i normally do try n work through them but i work 12hrs a night,so i had to save the strength i had.. thanks for disappointing me.. lol think ill try n start back with walking tomorrow n leave the weights till i feel ok again :) it was quite a shock when…

i came back from my recent holiday to a repossession order on the home i co-owned with an ex … she stopped paying the mortgage and the bills then did a runner ..No idea where she has gone but hopeful the authorities will catch up with her in time..but in the meantime i'm stuck waiting for the day they come and take my old…

I love chocolate ..not all.. but i can't eat anything chocolate flavoured or anything that smells of coffee .. hate coffee. parsnips and celery also turn my stomach

A few of my photographs from recent new york trip :)

Thanks side steel.thats what I've Been doing so far yes, if it hurts I simply don't do it. I guess I can't do any other as it's not a condition they can do anything about. I think really I just need to know which excercise that I Can do in which order to make the most of doing them.i mean, there's no point doing a specific…

i'm no expert on any of the stuff on mfp, but i joined a few months ago as i wanted to lose some weight ..i read and read and read for the first few weeks and to be honest .. weight lifting DID seem to be being pushed a LOT .. as a newbie that kind of stands out in the forums. At the time i joined i was saving for a big…
