That was my issue. Going down in size but not losing weight. It gets bloody depressing when that happens and if you are not careful will put you off track. DAMHIK

Should we start a tv shows / films to watch whilst turboing thread.Thanks for all the recommendations guys.
I ended up watching ‘uncut gems’. I turned on Netflix and saw I was already 20 minutes into it after trying to start watching it a couple of months ago before probably getting dragged away to do something else. ‘Dragged away’ bob, definitely not through lack of concentration...
Anyways... kept me entertained for an hour or so! I’ve jotted all the recommendations down which will come in handy over the next few weeks, or months(!?)

Great that meetups can now be scheduled on any map at any time (except the event only courses Crit city and Bologna). Should mean we can all meet on a map that isn’t on the schedule and have much less traffic!

Wow, yesterday I had porridge for breakfast a coffee. Then snacked on Strawberries, blueberry's, mangos all day. Had a small bowl of brand flakes. Went to bed then weighed this morning and my extra KG I added on has gone. It just shows you that you can easily turn things around if you actually try. You can reach your goals I'm living proof. Eat lean & clean and chew your stem.
Some positives there
Weight loss is 90% food, 10% exercise*
It's much easier to increase the calorie deficit by eating less than exercising more. Unfortunately there are a lot of fatties out there who think by going to the gym and walking for 30 minutes on a treadmill allows them to have a 'treat' Mars bar (so long as they swill it down with a diet coke) later**.
* I made those %'s up so they may not be 100% accurate, but you get the drift!
** True story from a friend our ours. Needless to say, they are still fat

I know people who are obese but spend many hours running cycling only to over eat on junk food. It's such a waste of time.

Milky, well done but did you drink anything other than that coffee? I am not eating much more than usual and what I do eat is good quality. However at my heaviest I can weigh nearly 2 kilos more depending on time of day and , crucially, how much I have drunk. Endless cups of tea and coffee as well as vitamin c tabs etc mean I am certainly holding a lot more fluids than usual. And body fluids often represents the greatest part of initial weight loss.

No a single pedal push for 9 months
. I've got to do something, I can't find an exercise I can do to take the place of the gym work I was doing that doesn't end up with me having a numb and at the same time painful lower leg. Either do something or all the work I've done up to now will be for nowt I'm gonna try taking the right side pedal off and using a box for my foot to rest on. I might end up like Quagmire but with my left leg though

Just a few small coffees and some water. Since lock down we make the most of our shops and stock in plenty of fruit & veg. Attempting to rid belly fat & try and go more pro look.
