Lois Do not diss Mr Bond, some of us want to be him just looking for a Moneypenny, Holly Goodhead, Mary Goodnight, !!!!! Galore, Chew Mei, Xenia Onatopp, Penny Smallbone, Honey Ryder, and Plenty O'Toole to name a few? Any Takers?

Who's dissing Mr Bond - I certainly wouldn't kick Daniel Craig out of bed in a hurry! (I just can't make it to the end of a film without falling asleep!)

And don't forget Miss Moneypenny was played by Lois Maxwell for years!

fart jokes/stories NEVER stop being funny. Anyone who acts disgusted is just weird. It tends to be pooooooo stories at re-enactment events. I think it's the fact that you're all using portaloos and are that bit closer to nature anyway. In fact, here's a fart story to keep you all entertained . . . .


Flatulence jab to aid green conquest

New Zealand trade minister Phil Goff has announced that scientists have mapped the genome that causes methane in ruminant animals, which will enable vaccinations against the emissions.
Methane produced by sheep and cows currently accounts for 25% of the methane produced in Britain.END




Goose was luscious but incredibly expensive for the amount of meat i got off it. I got a couple of tubs of fat off it too to keep OH in roast potatoes for a while. Unfortunately the calorie counting crippled me yesterday. I knew i was pushing it, trying to have just breakfast and the roast dinner - which wasn't ready till 1800. I got so hungry i crashed out in the afternoon and ate everything that wasn't nailed down. I haven't dared total up what i ate but shall do the day one thing for today. hope everything goes okay victory!

hi guys, i hope its ok to post here.

i am 25, gay, and have been in an on off relationship for 5 years, we broke up at Xmas there for 2 months i gained weight, i then couldnt afford to eat (not joking) and then went down to 14 stone, since he has been back at the start of February
i started eating what i thought was normally again and i weighed 15 stone about a month ago.

since then i have had the following.

bowl of shredded wheat (or bitesize with fruit) or that Multigrain (is it finesse?) cereal for breakfast.

1 meduim sized roll (white) with salad for lunch (or sometimes i do cheat and have a tuna mayo roll, but ive only done that once in a month)

and then my dinner which is usually now chicken fillets and salad or those "Asda good for you meals" (again cheated on Saturday and had a takeaway pizza which upset my stomach lots yesterday!)

and thats all ive been having, (but im pretty sure ive been hitting the 1200 calories)

i drink between 1 and 2 litres of water a day (with 2 cups of tea in the morning it must be said)

i have also added 30 mins on the exercise bike on Mondays/Wednesdays/Friday nights and for the past week added light weights on a tuesday and thursday night and Sunday night (following the plan that came with the weights)

and i am now! 14 stone! with a loss of nearly a stone!

i am definately not as hungry as i was and i love my salad rolls etc.

but i would like to lose another half a stone, but its slow progress, i still have quite a big beer belly (which is my problem area) but it doesnt seem to be shifting

i am doing everything right

is there anything else i can do to work my stomach? (hate sit ups they hurt my back)

thanks guys



EDIT - i should point out that on Friday nights i do tend to have a lot of beer - between 6 and 10 cans............ i know i should cut down, but it just didnt happen this week!

Welcome to the forum kennyparkroad!

I am no expert in these matters (I'm a fairly new member to this forum) however I suspect you may continue to be overweight from undereating on your current diet. Not eating enough calories can lead to your body going into a "famine" mode and was storing everything you feed it.

Suggs has some great links on his first post in this forum including the "calorie intake to lose weight calculator" - I recommend that you take a look at it: http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/harris-benedict-equation/calorie-intake-to-lose-weight.php

As for the beer belly - sorry I can't help you on that one but I'm sure that some of the other members will have some great tips for you.

Best of luck with your weight loss - please post regularly to let us know how you are getting on!

Hey Kenny, welcome.
Are you doing any exercise? I lost a stone by changing my diet, but then the loss trailed off. I joined the gym and have lost 2 stone since christmas.
I don't count calories, so don't know if 1200 is too little? But more knowledgable peeps will advise soon.

WI today and I have lost 3.8 lbs!! Just 1.4 lbs off 14 stone so I'm going to say I've reached my June target!! I'm going to keep the momentum going and look forward to the next target ~ 12 stone (168 lbs) by Christmas, which would also take me out of the 'obese' group, and into the 'overweight' group

hi pinklipgloss

i think i am hitting the 1200, as my breakfast averages about 200, lunch about 250 and then my dinner is about well actually its between 350-500 the meals, so maybe your right, maybe im not hitting my 1200, but ive lost a stone in a month with that and exercise............ do i really want to mess with that method? (also my cups of tea and milk too, semi skilled milk) but thanks will look at the link you provided.

raphael yeah i am doing exercise (quoted from my original post)

i have also added 30 mins on the exercise bike on Mondays/Wednesdays/Friday nights and for the past week added light weights on a tuesday and thursday night and Sunday night (following the plan that came with the weights)



i should mention that im 6 foot 2 and now 14 stone, which gave me the BMI of 25.19 which is just in the overweight category..........

Oops sorry! Didn't see that!!
Anyway of changing the exercise, your body will get used the 30 mins on bike etc and it's not as effective. I think you should do a different routine every 6 weeks (going on my gym review dates) and then switch back after another 6 weeks. To keep your body on it's toes.

Hi Kenny - not eating enough calories can result in your weight staying the same as the body goes into famine mode and hangs onto as much fat as it can. There's a good website HERE where you can work out how many calories you need based on your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR).

Hope that helps.
