    Totally agree with that!

    And get food companies to be honest about their products or else face penalties. Last year, I bought two bags of Hubbards Muesli which contained 5 different grains, including buckwheat which was good for controlling blood sugar. But when I cracked the bag open and consumed some, it was so ridiculously sweet, I spit it out!

    The sugar content [per 100gm] seemed average but then closer examination of the ingredients revealed four different types of sugar [two disguised as somethign else]. I think that's totally dishonest.

    I find the best way to control bloodsugar (for me personally) is stop drinking. Because I eat like a feral child when I've been drinking, and then feel like shit for days after because I've filled my body with empty carbs and sugar which has to go somewhere.

    Its cheaper too

    For me, it's exercise... Not even an hour three or four times a week, just 20 intense minutes three times a week with as much walking as I can (like 15 mins of brisk walking before lunch everyday).

    With my time constraints and daily pressures of life (work, family, bills, car, bikes, etc.), I now subscribe to the school of thought that it's the intensity of exercise and not duration [e.g. cardio] that is more important and effective. The right types of exercises raise your metabolism and keeps it up there for the next 48 hours till your next intense workout, thereby allowing you to burn off fat and carbs more efficiently [and more easily if you eat right too]. It's called the 'Afterburn Effect'.

    And it's cheaper too, no equipment, no membership fees, no fancy clothes or shoes...

    Firstly, I'm not fat. Anyone who can win at hide and seek in a bean garden can't be considered fat.

    Secondly, active people are also a burden, how many injuries and pulled muscles from jogging and that sort of carry on are there?

    Thirdly, maybe skinny slothlike people are the way to go, I used to be one of them.

    Fourthly, being fit is awesome, you can take the piss and not get a beating.

    Fifthly, fatties will be the slowest and provide a distraction when we are invaded by aliens, or robots.

    Nextly, rendering all the fat will take time for the aforementioned conquerors, and be a source of explode-ables for the rebels.

    Lastly, without fatties there would be far less pies, and you can't successfully rebel without some good pies.

    Yeh, but fatties can do that too, they just spend a bit more on gas, tyres, suspension, frames...

    I reckon fatties have way more of a monopoly on pies than they do on beer, and you can always rebel with moonshine

    Loads of info around for eating right isn't there? Start your day off with a decent breakfast, slow down on the carbs after midday, smaller meals at night. A bit of exercise, preferably a good romp in the sack with Miss Gina three or four times a week, ooopps wrong website for that.
    All that's missing for the majority of folks is them little things called motivation and moderation me thinks. It ain't easy, will admit that, I gotta work on it myself...but I just have to laugh at the large number who shrug their shoulders and blame genetics

    I see your kiwifruit iceacream, and raise you mammoth supply company peanut butter icecream.
    OMG.

    This is not the secret to losing weight though. Its a great way to gain 4kg in less than that many months, and becoming the heaviest you have ever been, with the least amount of muscle.

    Fast forward from August to today, I'm back down to within 2kg of my previous goal weight (unrealistic dream) and content to stay here.

    I'm not fat
    (anymore)

    Oh shit yes. It really is just so astonishingly good, isn't it?

    I should note, by the way, that 'kiwifruit' is the handle of another member of this forum. He likes to run marathons in one-piece leathers and turn Yamaha Scorpios into racebikes. He is my flatmate. It was 10pm, and he wanted icecream. At the time, I don't believe he cared much what flavour it'd be.

    Only when I read your post did I realise the ambiguity of my wording.

    Yes. I have one too. It doesn't go right now, but I believe that to be traditional for racebikes.

    I wish I had pics of when I joined the gym, compared to now. I wasn't big, but I certainly wouldn't have taken me home on a Saturday night.

    Ambiguity FTL.
    Clearly I'm a noob.
