How tall are you and what weight are you, Sugartits?

[Kevin 1]

Jesus Christ, I cannot believe what I'm seeing!

 

 

 

Joey wants to leave

[ChezGiven 0]

Ugh, this is gonna take ages. I'll have a look this week and try to pull out the main bits.

Shouldnt take that long to pick one out from the main explanatory chapter. I'd expect chapter 1 to deal with the scientific premise.

 

Am even a bit interested as I've just been through an unwanted fast because of that bug. Water even went through me as fast as gravity could carry it. Not sure they are comparable but the weight loss effect probably was.

[McFaul 35]

Do interval training Stevie.

What is that exactly? I stay off the treadmill to be honest if I can, they fuck me knees up more than road running even.

[Renton 22008]

Ok, there's a lot. Let me know if you'd sooner just read the book (it's probably a couple of hours reading) and I'll send it to you. To me, he puts together a very convincing case, although that's assuming the references below are legit and proper studies. This should be good for the bandwidth problems.....

It usually takes me at least an hour to critically appraise a paper and you can't do it from the title or even the abstract.

 

My advice? Stop being so gay.

 

At it's most basic level all you have to do is balance the energy in and energy out equation so it gives a deficit (presuming you want to lose weight). Everything else is likely to be bollocks. Of course if you fast you're generally going to eat less.

 

I know you know this anyway mind.

how very scientific

 

"right lads, we've pretty much got this geometry lark sorted, down the pub for the next 10k years?"

Had a great few days at the gym, I can't believe how much more energy I have for staying off the drink for a few weeks. Usually my workouts at the beginning of the week can feel a little sluggish but had none of that recently. I've enjoyed losing weight so much I'll almost be a tiny bit disappointed to hit my goal weight and have to maintain a steady weight.

I honestly don't know what the fuck's happened to this place.

Mid life crisis.

[Christmas Tree 4851]

Well, being a bit off reservation of late what with a mini holiday and other things so missed three weigh ins. Went last Monday and had put on 5lbs (Thankfully the leader whispered the result so my shame was limited).

 

Think Ive had a reasonable week this week so looking for 1 or 2 off tonight.

[Ayatollah Hermione 14069]

Well, thank god your shame was spared.

[Monkeys Fist 43115]

I've done something to my neck at the gym this morning. Jarred it by being too nails or something. Hopefully it just sorts itself out.

 

Have you started your gym thing yet Chezney?

[ChezGiven 0]

Not yet but soon, very soon. Definitely....

Cheeky bastard.

 

Not changing jobs Holden, got a couple of weeks abseiling down the inside of this 100m stack to shift debris that's built up since the accident in the 50s. As it's an "active" area we have to do a bit of extra training. Only allowed to work in there for 1.5 hrs a day, so it'll take a while.

If it's that radioactive, bollocks to that!

[Holden McGroin 6785]

They don't call him Monkeys "Danger" Fist for nothing. That's true NAILS ginger lad. Not 20 mins on the camp cross trainer.

[Monkeys Fist 43115]

Sorry Chez, my twisted eyes read something else entirely.

 

Re. The radiation levels, a test measurement showed the levels to be 1/5 less than the maximum allowed level- however that was measured before we hairy-arsed abseilers have been in kicking up radioactive dust.

1st time in we have to do level checks every 2 minutes. If it gets above a certain level, GTFO.

All this whilst taped into a full body PVC suit with a re-breather mask on. Gimptastic!

[Jusoda Kid 1]

Rumour has it he's got a big job coming off in Japan so he's acclimatising at Sellafield first.
