Lacessit Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I've discovered the food bamboo, pickled or with chilli. Loaded with minerals and fibre, zero calories. Very tasty with an evening drink. It also gives the bowel an absolute treat, if that's not TMI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a choice and so if its ok with you then so be it. But to act like you cannot change is crazy. Everyone can lose a lot of weight if they really want it but most people are just not willing to make those changes. Complaining its too hard. I can accept that but then they have accept they themselves are the reason they are fat not say they cannot lose weight. They just choose to be fat. Anyway lif is not fair i got a slow metabolism compared to others I have to take things to far more extremes to lose fat. I just accept that as it is and work with what i got. But I did lose 25 kg at some point kept it off. Now I gained some weight because of an injury and I am getting rid of it again. But it required stuff like not drinking alcohol or sugary drinks. Making better choices food wise. Like i said its all about how much someone is willing to do. Nobody needs to stay fat if they are willing to change and give things up. If not they its their own choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traubert Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Losing 25kg is an awful lot. I've lost 12kg since I came back from Thailand and I sustained an injury so I can't exercise much. Just haven't had a beer since March 19th. 6'00" and 79kg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Anyway being fat is a right. Just dont complain you cannot lose weight. We all can if we make the right changes. But many dont want to make those changes. Just be fair about it. Life is not fair some dont have to do a thing to stay slim others have to do a lot. Giving up drinking is hard for most expats. To stay really lean i need to give up drinking sweet stuff. Hard for me but its a choice. Beeing fat is a choice for most people. Quite understandable with all those nice foods and drinks. Most bad things are far more tasty then the healthy. So its just a choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just haven't had a beer since March 19th. 6'00" and 79kg. nice stats im heavier but carry a lot of muscle. Currently want to lose 5kg. Given myself 2 to 3 months. Could go faster but im lean already. So not that bad just want more. But i think i got inflamed tendons in the shoulders so cant lift as heavy as i want. Stopped training for 2 months lost motivation and gained weight. Now training again and motivated again. I just hope the shoulders heal. But what i consider lean and aim for is far more then what others aim for. Like all abs visible not just upper abs. Its a goal to chase. Without goals i get bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have bought it in a sachet at Tops, pickled. IMO not as good as the bamboo my GF buys at the daily market in the village. The small red-brown packet on top is the powdered chilli. You can also see it at roadside stalls, although my GF says it is not as fresh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post a3tsw Posted June 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2020 When I was a child growing up in a Glasgow slum area during the late 50’s/early 60’s. We were really poor and undernourished for the main part. The main meal of the Day would be our free school dinners and we would be outdoors from morning to night playing as nobody had television back then. I cannot recall ever seeing an overweight person during my childhood ' we would have probably ate them. Those were the Days! 50 a-Side!

It only comes back when we go back to the bad diet. I have always been able to keep it off unless i started eating bad again. Recently gained a bit of weight because of bad diet. I could not train anymore because of an injury started to eat the bad <deleted> and up my weight went. So basically its all about diet. Once you change you cannot go back to what you ate or drank before otherwise you will get fat again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post balo Posted June 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) Just stop eating and do daily exercises, you'll see results pretty fast. Your brain needs to believe in a strict diet. I stopped drinking soda years ago. It's very simple really, avoid all the temptations and after a while you will not miss it. In the beginning you can count your calories using a calorie app, you should not eat more than 2000 calories, even can go down to 1200-1500 calories during a period. It doesn't mean you can't enjoy a cookie or cake with your tea/coffee, just need to be aware you need to eat less of other food that day. It's never too late to change your lifestyle.
