Getting fit

Quoted message said:

1. To lose about a stone

That's the easy bit.

Keep a diary of stuff you eat. Weigh everything you eat. No fried food at all No normal cheese at
all No more than 12oz red meat a week Cut out alcohol Eat loads of veggies Use skimmed milk Don't
add salt to your food Don't have sugar No more than the equivalent of 2 teaspoons fat per day. Eat
three meals a day and in that *always* have breakfast.

The above works :-)

Cheers, helen s

But the side effects are that you slash your wrists within a week 🙁

Chocolate Ice Cream A nice Chardonnay Cream cakes Sticky toffee Buttered scones Two pints of lager &
a packet of crisps

What *is* a torture for me is resisting a nice big wedge of passion cake.

Always give into passion -- and don't call me cake!!

Tony, mate, a word of advice: Be careful, be very, very careful. After all, who has access to the
slabs in this NG? You may recall I mentioned women, kitchens and ironing a while ago so I speak from
experience.

Ice Cream

Only if it's Ben & Jerry's is it torture

Well I've just finished a hard weekend of flat tarting up in order to sell it - no cycling AT ALL
for at least a month until now :-( so I'm now going to reward myself with a nice hot shower and a
tub of Ben & Jerry's. Hmmm, now which will it be "Fish Food" or "Karamel Sutra"? (or however those
word mangling Americans spell them).

By the way B&Js* are two for a fiver at Sainsbury's just now. Oh I'm sorry Helen, is your drool
ruining your keyboard :->

Have (tub loads of) fun!

Graeme

* I almost wrote "BJs are two for a fiver" but I'm sure Sainsbury haven't branched out into that
line of business quite yet.

Mmmm... Karamel Sutra....

On Saturday, SWMBO and I collected her new bike, a Dawes Kara-Kum. Sunday was spent bolting various
accessories onto said bike (lights, Air-zound etc.) after which she went out for a test ride. 1 hour
later, Mrs. G returns, pannier bulging. "Nice ride?" sez I. "Great. Oh, I was passing the
supermarket and thought you might like these" sez she, removing 2 pots of B&J's finest (Karamel
Sutra and One Sweet Whirled for those who are interested) and a bottle of decent vodka.

Happy happy joy joy belch hic thud.

Check out this link it gives some information about getting a coach in the UK http://www.cyclingforums.com/t27816.html.

Every pound of body fat is 3500 kcal so if you use 3500 kcal than you eat you will lose a pound of fat. This can be acheived by eatting 100 kcal less each day for 35 days or 500 kcal less for 7 days. Most adult weight gain is caused by decreasing physical activity due to changes in lifestyle (cars, work, etc.) and better nutrition (e.g. more money = more meals out, etc.); resulting in a few extra kcals each day for years.

I bet all this is impossible unless positively *nothing else matters in your life. In which case,
what's the point?

I was just wondering, how much more does muscle weigh than fat?. The reason I ask is I'm a bit
overweight and I was wondering how much of that could be due to muscle on my legs due to all
my cycling.

Roughly, the density of body fat is 0.92 and the density of muscle is 1.06. A value of 1.0 is the
density of water so fat floats and muscle sinks.

1. To lose about a stone
2. To get fit for endurance cycling

Hi

I returned to running and cycling about 3 years ago after a few years of inactivity. I found it
very hard getting started again but keep at it. The older you get the longer it takes to regain
fitness. I lost about a stone without changing my diet at all or making any effort to reduce my
intake. Give it a few months back on the bike and see what happens before worrying about weight.
Keep a diary, and keep at it cheers Iain

True - but I find to eat a bit less of everything, it helps if I keep a diary of everything I eat
and weigh the stuff I eat too. For me it's a discipline I get into that helps me stay on the
calorie reduction regime.

Nothing so complex is needed, Helen. Just eat 10 potatoes instead of 15 - YSpudIntakeMMV.
