Help me lose das gut.

[Clouds_mate]

Morning Y'all

Need to lose the winter coat for the summer. I dont have time to go to the gym in my busy leckster life style i live but i am willing to do something to sort it.

Im not fat altho i have a nice belly at the moment, rest of the body is normal (non fat lol).

My Life stlye...

I dont have time for breakfast at the moment.
Lunch - Turkey, Letice and cheese sandwhich with no butter - packet of crisp and a can of coke
Dinner - could really be anything

I never snack between meals and never reallly eat sweets or anything.

weekend i normally have 1 or 2 meals all weekend but could be throwing alot of beer down the neck.


Im willing to give up drinking while i can sort this and sorting my diet, but i really know nothing about what to eat and what not to eat.

What type of exercise will be needed too?

Last weekend i bought some jeans and got a 36" haha, granted they were gstar and i like them loose fit but ideally i would like to be back down to a 34"

can anyone help me buff up for the chickadees? im not arsed about a pack of 6 lol but just want the little bump gone from my shirt.

thanks

[woodsy]

drink coke zero instead of normal coke
limit the calories you take in 2500 a day for men
eat breakfast!!!!! most important
and rather then just driving to he shop for a paper etc ... walk

[Clouds_mate]

I only use my car to go to work, dont use it for anything else lol, altho the only place i really go is the pub or i drive the girlfriends car lol.

calorie intake? Explain what i could have within that amount? lol

[woodsy]

well you say you have a bag of crisp's at dinner ...

on the back look at how many KCAL there is in that bag, cheesy wotsits have 95 kcal's

you might not evan eat 2500 cals a day but just a option to try out

[dannyjay]

I have the same problem leckie mate.

But I bought some cheap stuff from sports world and do 15/20 minutes jogging every monday/wednesday and friday mornings before work.

Just put my ipod on and jog.

Obviously the more stamina I gain the longer I'll jog for, but as were both in IT theres not much you can do when you have limited time available :sad:

[Mystic]

Yeh, i think i could do with a little healthy living too.

My diet, day & week is pretty much as leckie just described his. although since the new parking restrictions have started since monday. i now walk for an hour uphill to work (the walk home seems to only take 40 mins though ;)) Its a 5 mile round trip :y:

Advise me :A:

[dannyjay]

Also try and cut out bread, specialy if its white bread. Its one of the most fattening things you can eat!

[Mystic]

Damn, i love my subs for lunch though :sad: Although brown bread toast is pretty damn good :y:

There that ad on telly atm for that healthy bread where the builders jeans keep fallin off cus hes losing weight (ace ad) that stuff any good?

Going running before work would be good but i find it hard to get up as it is. whats this 'cheap stuff' What time do you start work and time do you go running mate?

[Clouds_mate]

notice how its us office bums that are turning in lard machines lol

[Mystic]

lol yer :sad: and runing in the morning is out of the question lol

I get up at 7.30 to give my girl a lift to work, get home about 8, if im walking i need to leave within 10 mins but if i drive half way i leave about 8.30

No way im runing before 7.30 in scotland lol we just dont have the climate for it :P

[Clouds_mate]

wimp lol.

whats the crack with this parking thing? Not allowed to drive to work?


I think running maybe out of the picture too but if i can get into the routine i will be fine.......




.....i think lol

[Barry123]

Lay off the McRags.

[Mystic]

Yeh all the streets around the city centre had parking spaces painted in em, majority for residents only and the few other spaces are now pay machines, 70p an hour & maximum stay of 4 hours. Bugger spnding £6 a day parking & having to nip down at lunch to top up the meter!

They were suppose to start at the begining of the year but they had problems with the machines &finishing the roads, just started on monday though :sad:


http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l47/DJ-Mystic/parking-restricions.jpg
Thats how it looks atm, red zone is new restrictions and from where im parked to where i work is about 25 mins walk. Its about half way between home and work :sad:

[Leo]

leckie get to the gym u puff. take 45mins from ya sax-p surfing time 3 times a week, jobs a gooden

[dannyjay]

Going running before work would be good but i find it hard to get up as it is. whats this 'cheap stuff' What time do you start work and time do you go running mate?

£20 reebok running trainers, £6 umbro running trousers, £2.50 for a umbro tshirt.

have to start work at 8:15am, but i live 25 mins away so have to set off at quart to 8 basicaly. so get up at about half 6 and get 20 mins in before work.

Should get me losing some pounds before my holiday in aug. :y:

[David]

I'm feeling the same as you Danny, excpet my holiday's in 5 weeks! :fcuk: (Although I already am a size 34);)
I've just started swimming twice a week too, so that should help... :y:

[Yates]

get up earlier, more time to burn off more than what you eat

get some dumbells n do press ups, bit of exercise

[oz_borne]

Personally i found that changing my diet TEAMED with the gym had the biggest effect.

I cut out bread and alcohol for a month, complete detox and ate special k for breakfast salad (lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, some pine nuts, ham or tuna and sweetcorn) for lunch, and rice, chicken, beef, noodles, spaghetti and the such for tea. It is heavy on the protein in the evenings, and that's due to going to the gym before eatign (which, dependant on who you read is bad).

Generally a change in lifestyle is needed, and if you can be your own personal trainer, then you're on to a winner. i'd say to make a difference you have to make a change. You can't expect to change your shape or size if you don't make some sacrafice.

excercise and food intake both need a slight change.

Leckie, you know that at christmas everyone was surprised by my weight loss, well that only came through doing the above. so i know it works. Since then i've dropped another trouser size and have, according to the Fiance, got a kinda 6 pack going on. It's a good feeling and i wouldn't go back for the world (just yet)

:A:

[Andys]

you need to look at your carb consumption, limit to around 100-150grams per day of carbs and get them in before 1pm so you will have chance to untilise them through out the day, you can eat protein heavy as an excess of protein doesnt get stored, you just piss it out, unlike carbs, as the bodies natural fuel the body wont get rid of an excess, takes its, converts it and stores it around your vital organs and under your skin.

depending on what you weight and how much of what type of training you do will depend on the calorie range you can work in on either training or non training days...

and cheers for the map to your car..ill have some of my boys rob it, haha, just kidding..f*ck how guilt am i going look now if it happens! you got a good alarm, right??

[saxodan]

So leckie hows it going?

Nice lunch was it? Oh and btw how much salad do they put in a quarter pounder with cheese these days?

Hey fatty boom boom

[Clouds_mate]

I have a plain quater so i wouldnt know haha.

But i wouldnt be starting this till after my holiday as i will be drinking and cannot say what they will be to eat or what and when i will be munching.

Thanks for the concern tho rat.

@ the other peoples and PMs regarding plans. I will reply when i can sit down and read through things proper. Litlee busy at work (shock horror)

thanks

[Mystic]

Whats a decent breakfast then? Im sure i could squeeze a bowl a cereal into my morning rush if i tried :P

I already have a healthy evening meal every night, maybe more exercise is in order, although since i have to park so far away from work i might just start walking from my house (unless its raining :P)

[Robb]

want another cream cake?


bounce bounce bounce


:kiss:

Mate, British summer time begins soon........late night weekday drinking in beer gardens begins, oooooooooo fuck the diet....if your happy with yourself leave it.

[Clouds_mate]

This is true....but you know it would be nice to lose it lol

[AdamW]

I really could do with doing some exercise and losing das gut........but im comftable.....I think its just from the pure booze I drink.....dont really eat alot.

But you cant be a homo when your mates say there down the local in the beer garden have a mash up and you say your on a detox......you will be out of the circle of trust.....lol

[Clouds_mate]

I wouldnt go to the pub, the temptation would be too strong and i would last 1 or maybe half of my coke (drink) then sucker in and buy a pint lol

[AdamW]

Couple of sit-up and press-ups in morning when you go home from work and when you get up should do the trick if you cut out the fast food but still have a beer........some women love the manly man.....none of this pretty boy fake tan gay shit. I still get some loving.....lol

[Clouds_mate]

rob uses fake tan..


haha. serves you right from hurting my feelings. :sad:

[AdamW]

2 of my mates go for regular sun bed treatment.........the whole tight t-shirt brigade

[Kelly]

notice how its us office bums that are turning in lard machines lol

So true, I wouldn't say I am or was a lard machine but if I didn't start dieting then I'd be unhappy with my weight. Lost a stone so far hehe

A bit of advise -

If you don't fancy changing the way you eat dramatically then go for lower fat/calorie versions e.g. diet coke instead of normal, walkers lites instead of full fat crisps and brown bread instead of white.

For exercise you want to be doing a few hundred sit-ups a day. Also, sex burns loads of calories :p lol

[Clouds_mate]

does sex with my hand count? I think the gf has stiched up the muffin.

I dont mind giving up shit and drink to get rid of the gut and working hard. But once i get rid i will start again but be more careful. I dont want to have to watch what i eat etc but i dont mind doing that now. I know a few will say whats the point but as soon as i get to my wanted weight size i will keep at it.

[Robb]

haha cunt...not true.

yeh that would be gay.

EDIT - and i will always love you whatever size you are

[saxodan]

Maybe its time to switch to chocalate muffins

[Clouds_mate]

I havnt rocked the sunbeds for 3 week actually lol

[Kelly]

Sex with your hand doesn't count unless its your arm you want to tone up :p lol

Getting strange looks at work now cos you made me laugh

[Barry123]

Sex with your hand doesn't count unless its your arm you want to tone up :p lol

I have some of the finest toned arms at uni.

[Leo]

always wondered why my right arms bigger than my left

[saxodan]

Alternate..

Lasts longer with the left too..

:homme: :homme:

[Mark51]

just come to the gym with me and ill get you sorted mate

[Clouds_mate]

gym you at mark?

[Leo]

i tried dan but my left arm goes haywire. it starts spazzing out all over the place and i nearly pulled my cock off. just dont have the right arm rythem in the left.

I even tried "the stranger" - where you make ya arm numb and then pull ya pudding.. that was just weird

[srcnix]

Sadly it's not just about calories. You need to think about the carbohydrates, fat (and saturated) and sugar you're taking in.

[bbewekim]

Mate come up with a good eating plan, join a gym... you could have muscles instead of fat within weeks. I been at the gym for just over a month now, Spent the first month just doing cardio, now ive moved on to upper body more with weights etc, seeing gains rather quickly! So im sure you can do it cus im a skinny f00k and i eat to much.

[Jimbo]

Leo, i jst fucking cried at that comment.

Wish i could give you rep, but i bum you too much, so i have to spread my love around.

[Mystic]

[Missvtr]

Be thankful for your belly lol!, I watched the scariest thing today after dinner...About a 41 stone fat dude in america who couldn't walk and his legs we're wasting away...Lol..Be thankful your not in that position..
Bellies are saying...look at me i'm well fed and not starving like some poor anorexic dude at the side of the road lol!
