    for me its exercise, most days I honestly can't eat less, but then I get so I'm eating so little I literally can barely move....this is actually the purpose of the endocrinologist, to try and sort out the biochemistry from where it is now...cause, like the brain, I broke that...:o

    Well if you are eating so little you can't move exercise doesn't seem very practical. Are you eating enough protein? Prawns are brilliant, hardly any calories.

    Isn't there some sort of vibrating plate you can stand on that works all your muscles. I am sure someone told me 10 minutes on one of those is as good as jogging for half an hour.

    It sounded too good to be true though.

    Not so sure Harrison Ford would have jumped down that one.

    The video was taken the day before the girl was being photographed. The water subsided a lot overnight, but it was still pretty brave of her.

    The story was that this was to celebrate their wedding anniversary. Apparently, they had just finished taking photos of her driving a tractor. There must be a website somewhere of 101 things you can do in a wedding dress.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Had one of my aspie moments on the other board in the last few days ... I still can't work out what I said wrong... I'm still sure they read it wrong. I ran away. If I can't get forums right, I don't stand a chance in a gym or sauna.

    On cashtrated? I didn't notice you saying anything wrong.
    Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)
    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    I've been wondering about whether it would be worth buying one. I did read something about it jiggling all your insides about though. :(

    So, the jury's still out on it for me. If anyone has tried them / has any more information??

    Well this girl swears by the damned thing. Says she does an hour a night on it while she is watching Judge Judy and burns off 500 calories just standing there.

    I meant to google them because if it does what she says it is a better investment that boots.

    Can you let me know if you find anything worth knowing, please?

    Are you sure she was standing on it not sitting on it?

    I can certainly see the female apeal to these things

    Lol, if it was a hot guy stalker then it wouldn't be so bad even a girl would be fine if it was Jessica Alba maybe but alas it is not

    The things they come up with for fittness gadgets these days though bewilder me what's with those powerball's what are they all about? Strengthening your wrist? Hmmm that one must be a man thing.

    Who is stalking you? Tell me everything, spare me no sordid detail, I am tough enough to take it:)

    Don't worry about being over- read. No one ever visits this board. It is the MSE version of a leper colony.

    I am positive that when we venture onto other boards klaxons sound in MSE Towers.
