No thanks Chubster. I'll be too busy doing some heavy bag work. An hour practising body shots to keep up my floating rib breaker right left combination will drive all thoughts of hunger from my mind.
You enjoy your nasty pasty though.

OK Tubby. Enjoy your workout, all sounds far too much excercise after an apple.
If anyone else wants a pasty I'll be going to Greggs about half 1. They've got some nice chicken and bacon specials on at the moment.

I've not so much cut the crap as reduced the volume. Having said that I am three days since my last lunchtime KitKat. Must be the longest spell for quite a while :o

now I'm quite Taliban about snacking so rarely eat between meals, but I do like summat with my tea - as my gran used to say - and KitKats are known to be one of the lowest-calorie chocs / biccies going.

I've been good on the 'chunky' KitKat front - not sure how long it'll last!!
Today's lunch - cream of parsnip soup (but declined on the free bread), rice salad with peas,sweetcorn & mushroom & a hint of low fat honey & mustard dressing, banana & satsuma. Also managing to avoid the office biscuits so far!!
Edit: I should add I've not actually managed to do any running yet this year due firstly to minor calf strain then a dodgy stomach after eating some out of date soup on Monday!!

Re: Overweight Confessions
Multi, your lunch sounds like that stuff southernsoftie eats. I love 'chunky' Kitkats :p
I had beans on toast for tea last night. Four slices of very thin toast and half a can of Heinz. No biscuits but I did eat the penultimate mince pie in the tin :o

Heinz are the bean for fatties. Why not go with some Aldi or Netto own brand bean ? Doubt theres any fat in there at all or many beans. In fact I think there are 4 beans per tin and the rest is water.

It won't last - I'll be back on the crisps etc before we know it. Tea last night was chicken salad + jacket spud with a hint of low fat spread!!

Re: Overweight Confessions
for an evening meal, can't beat steak and a green salad (with dressing - who are these masochists who have salad without dressing?) and a bit of good bread to mop up the juices: filling, good for you and low in cals and fat. And best of all it doesn't feel like a 'diet meal'.
Or, take up BMF three times a week and you can eat what the hell you want - that's my 'diet'.

Re: Overweight Confessions

I had some home made leek and potato soup last night with a cheese salad sandwiches. Brought all my lunch today so food plan for today is:
- Breakfast: toast n honey, smoothie, cup of tea (1% fat milk, 2 sugar)
- Lunch: pasta tuna mayo sweetcorn combo (1 mug pasta, 2 dollops mayo, 5 forkfuls of sweetcorn, 1 can tuna), and another tea.
- Grazing: pot of nuts/fruits/seeds, 2 x bananas, 1 x apple
- Drinks: other than the 2 teas, I've been on glasses of water. May also end up making a protein shake or summat 'sevening as I'm planning a fairly heavy weights sesh tonight (assuming I'm not too tired when I get in)
- Tea: will probably go for 2-3 soft boiled eggs on toast.
That is all! :D

10g is a hell of a lot of fat.
I reckon if DT went with the Netto or Aldi beans he'd save himself around 25 seconds a mile over a 20 mile fell race.

All those pasties have fried your brain :closed:

Its a lot of fat to a highly tuned athlete. Or so I'm told.
Chicken and bacon pasty today. Very nice

Re: Overweight Confessions
Hospital canteen curry for lunch, followed by two left over Quality Street. Not suprisingly I'm yet to move into loss.
However Mrs Duff's fancy scales reckon I only have 10% body fat depite a BMI of 24.5. I think they're mocking me.

Will. we haven't met. If we had you'd realise that what's important or relevant to a 'highly tuned athlete' isn't necessarily important or relevant to me

Re: Overweight Confessions
I haven't gone into loss yet, despite running pretty much every day since 22nd December and racking up some serious mileage. Unlike some of you with your pecan nuts, humus, goats milk and sun dried tomato 'poncey food' diets, I'm just going for the eat sensibly, insert fruit instead of cake, diet. Slow and steady wins the race :)

Must say that disappoints me a little DT. Some of the regulars on here have told me that you are the main man when it comes to the fells.

Selling lard.. DT as the athlete that he is, should be tee total.. do you actually realise how many cals there are in a pint? i bet he can't go tee total for a month?

Re: Overweight Confessions
belly still shakes from side to side when any forward momentum takes place. i have difficulty in washing my right foot in the bath. a 50 min run takes me 1 hour now, still nothing to do with my diet.
8am chip buttie. 12am bag of wine gums. dinner porride. tea Chinese take away. great stuff.

You'll do great ONW, training twice and cutting down on your food you a cert to drop the lb's.
I have made a fair start just by reducing the cal intake, now the training starts. (gently to start with)

Was going to reward myself for my efforts this week with a Friday morning sausage butty. God intervened though: the electric's down in the canteen. :rolleyes:

Re: Overweight Confessions
I did a circuit training session at the Richard Dunn sports centre in Bradford on Wednesday night for the first time in ages and jeez do my muscles everywhere (apart from my legs funnily enough) ache like 'flip'. My scrawny (yet flabby) upper body is really letting the side down at the minute!

Re: Overweight Confessions
I think this fat neutral has definitely put a bit on. The trousers are mighty tight this morning

Know that feeling Stolly, my back and arms are killing me from a few press ups and some other army exercises.
No work out this morning, had to wait for Tesco man. Lunch time run on the cards though, hopefully :)

I'm that hungry I've just been eyeing up last year's calendar. Paper is low in saturated fat isn't it? :closed:

yeah it's amazing isn't it. If pain is an indicator of gain, then circuit training must be bloody good for you. I just did my first BMF session in four months three days ago and the squats and lunges and tuck jumps killed my legs the next two days.
Just managed to do another one last night without too many tears.
