AAARRGGHH, I NEED A DONER KEBAB!!!
Please help. I absolutely crave some scrapings of that five day old, rat infested, elephant leg from my fat belly worry free days. Now though I'm watching my calorie intake. Doner kebab weighs in at about 93 billion calories. Surely with so much leeway, somebody must have come up with a low or at least lower cal option. I…

SNACKS!... Low cal per 100g only please.
You have the urge to masticate, but the second hand on the clock has frozen in time. A low calorie snack would carry you through, but what do you munch on, apart from your stumpy fingernails, that won't bust the calorie bank? Over to you.

How many calories burned doing...
The app has a list of exercises that are a great help in calculating the calories used in very particular ways. Is there anywhere though with other lists? Either that or is the a calculator online into which you put mass, distance, time, reps etc, and it gives you the calories burnt off? For example, when trying to find…

Does alcohol play an important part in your life?
I'm not talking about alcoholism etc. That's an addiction I'm pretty sure is genetic as I have downed more pints then most alcoholics, yet can go months, if need be, without being bothered by its absence. I'm talking about other things. For instance, spitits can lower blood sugar, whilst beer can raise it. Personally, I…

Desperately seeking snacks.
Your ideas will be gratefully accepted. To start you off here's one from me. Help deal with MSG crisps craving by sprinkling flavouring powder on celery and munching them instead. Fat and carb free, but unfortunately the salts, and MSG are still very much there. I think a bit of a trade off is ok though. It's doing good by…
