[heyuinthebush]

PS. The good thing about the MyFitnessPal app is that you can see how many 'spare' calories you have so you can enjoy a few pints at the pub at the end of the day guilt free if you have done enough exercise to cover them

Myfitnesspal you say? *strokes chin*

I think I need something like this!

[~Msv~]

It is - but the long-reaching effects of having said 'I quit' to oh i've had a drink or something else then arking up and chain smoking is hypocritical. (you know I can chain smoke!!)

I'm happy to 'quit' - just not publicly otherwise I'll be condemned if I ever did ark up again.

Then dont ark up again. Its not really rocket science.

[dart]

i went OFF diet last night.

went to a movie, got some lollies (pineapples, freckles, cola bottles).

bad me.

back on board today though. go me.

[Meggler]

haha i did that on sat, you cant go to the movies and not eat popcorn!

im feeling pretty weary today after walking home and playing netty but i am going to force myself to walk home again today, i keep thinking im going to thailand in a few weeks and i can eat all i want then!

YES!

and no doubt the hotel you're staying in has a gym, so each morning you can get up and jump on the tredmill/bike for a good half an hour workout before breakfast.

HA! AS IF!

[Kevin]

YES!

HA! AS IF!

I did three runs and one gym session while in Thailand a few weeks ago. Let's just say it tapered off

[frogman]

i keep thinking im going to thailand in a few weeks and i can eat all i want then!

And whats more, chances are you will be eating freshly prepared, seasonal produce that hasnt been tainted with preservatives, excess sugars and salts, so you will be eating more stuff thats better for you.

Gorge yourself, knowing you are eating delicious food thats good for you.

Scotty tried to quit publicly. We all donated to a charity true Scotty styles to sponsor his quitting. I do my best to make him feel as guilty as possible every time he lights up.

[BLEGH!]

This!
See !!

[Mono Lisa]

I've promised myself that once I reach a certain weight i will give quitting another go. Just shy of 2kgs till I get there.

[BLEGH!]

I was meant to go to gym last night but after finishing work late - I arsed it and went to the beach instead.
Trying to get out past the breaks and the dip at Scarbs was a workout in itself.

Note to self: Don't eat brownies and try swim

yeah and heaps of chilli which shold help speed up the metabolism! of course it will probably balance out with all the booze and fried spring rolls but i dont really care, dieting on holidays is not somethign i endorse!

[Meggler]

Yeah, I loved it. Would stay again. Pretty hard to leave really. Pool, beach, bar. Rinse, repeat.

[monkey]

5th day not smoking, feels good. still havent cleared the porch ash tray away though.

Same here, last ciggy was last Thursday. I find keeping the ash tray there helps - the sight and smell of it is a reminder of how shit the habit is.

[Petar]

MyFitnessPal - which mainly is a food diary app - you input all foods you have eaten (mostly aussie brands and foods in their database), it calculates your calorie intake and credits you for any exercise you have done. Once you have eaten everything for the day you log it in and it tells you how much you will weigh in 5 weeks (like "you will weigh 62.1kg in 5 weeks if every day was like today"). Records your weight and progress on graphs, I am really liking it.

thanks for the tip.. great app!

[neonknome]

We had our last meal in a cafe/restaurant/takeaway joint tonight - until we get to NZ.

Sigh. Will be good for our health though.

8th day non-smoker... so far so good.

[Infinitude]

Shit! Haven't done my morning sprints since last week.

Hopefully there's a suitable oval round these parts.

Morning sprints

What an awful way to start the day

I heard a great song about an angry vegan last night and thought of you

[Hoser]

Not much really. Cut down on the beers (slightly), bench 140 by the end of the year, take the pushy out more, eat well

[Infinitude]

Nah I love it ay. Makes you feel awesome for the rest of the day.

lol would this song be available on iTunes?

[neonknome]

Yes. Megan the Vegan by The Bedroom Philosopher.

[Ted Bundy]

Does smoking have a huge effect on muscle building?

I have been off the piss for two weeks now not Evan a sip, feel my strength improving and muscle growth going up, but I like smoking.

Discuss.

[frogman]

People trying to get fit who still smoke make me giggle.

If you stop smoking your lungs will last longer during each training session. You can breathe deeper for longer meaning your muscles work better for longer which means each training session is more effective.

[Mono Lisa]

0.8 kgs until I quit again

[Ted Bundy]

I don't participate in any cardio training apart from sex and yoyo tricks, and have been known to jog for 8 Kim's in bare feet only stopping twice for a minute while smoking several Winnie gold smokes, I will still try to quit but one thing at a time.

Exercise Diary - Input What you have done in the past week:

Monday?
Watched an autopsy scene of an obese man in a special by Jamie Oliver and then felt inspired to go buy a KFC family sized bucket

Tuesday?
Opened fridge night before and was tempted to go eat cheese cake. Woke up in the morning and looked in the fridge and found cheese cake was eaten. Looked in the mirror and found cheese cake was smeared all over my face

Wednesday?
Watched a soccer game on TV indoors which involved plenty of sudden standing up exercises where I would rapidly stand up and then sit down again occasionally when my favourite team scored

Thursday?
Went to the gym to smooth talk my way into cancelling my 6 month membership which I signed up for at the beginning of the year

Friday?
Ate whipped cream off a nude stripper at a buck's party, but she assured me it was low-fat so I guess that's ok

Saturday?
Watched The Notebook with a mudpack on my face whilst having a towel on my head and eating low fat yoghurt

Sunday?
Spat out half the communion wafer during mass to cut down the carbs

[Sway]

i would love to be fit.

alas im too effing lazy, and i like to eat whatever i want - whenever i want.
ive gone to both ends of the scale with my weight, but seem to be staying at 50 nowadays - tis okies, its a good weight, im just not toned which is my only "body" issue. that and practically having transprarent skin...

i have a good diet; homecooked meals - fresh ingrediants, easy on the booze, non-smoker and yupyup water is epic.

but i cant even power-walk to the letterbox without being short of breath O.o

[Booess]

Ok so I'm doing really badly.

I havent excercised at all in the last week, and have been eating all the food I shouldnt. I feel like crap, but it's my own fault.

Egg whites and fruit for breaky this morning, going for a run tonight. I MUST do this.

[~Msv~]

Not much really. Cut down on the beers (slightly), bench 140 by the end of the year, take the pushy out more, eat well

bench 140 by the end of the year. Fark you must be buff as!!!

0.8 kgs until I quit again

Just quit now, why do you need to get to a certain weight

-1.1kg last week
11th day non smoker

:dances:

Thats awesome! keep it up


I had a bad weekend Fish and chips on friday night. Big night on the piss on saturday night + pizza for dinner. Hungover as horse shit on sunday morning which lead to bacon deluxe combo from HJs. Sigh.

[Mono Lisa]

Just quit now, why do you need to get to a certain weight

Cos I have to psych myself up for it... I've been a smoker for 10 years + and its never really (to me) affected my fitness as I dont know any different. I quit for 3 months last year, put weight on quickly (mega carb cravings) plus I am not really a very nice person when I quit. Hmmm I am rethinking this quitting thing now

[kyler]

That sounds so delicious, I've not had any junk food for almost 10 days now...the cravings are shit. Just want to smash a footlong sub or a pizza from next door. The smells waft in at lunch time....

[~Msv~]

haha fair enough Lisa.

[Meggler]

Lise you will do great i reckon you are in the right place to quit.

if anyone is interested in home work out videos i've been doing one of Bob Harpers (from the biggest loser) its really good ther eis a beginners one that is 25 mins and a full on one that is 1 hour.

[Onijin]

finally back up to my full strength exercises, and just finished some play time with my jo and bokkendear god my arms D:

Yeah, might whip out my pair of tonfas tonight and practice some techniques. Just need to wary of irritating the fucked tendon in my right wrist.
