Quickstep just on another planet this year. Absolutely dominating every race.

Go Nibs!

Hang in there first 3 days is the toughest, gets easier after 7 days. Make it easier on your self. Clear your fridge and cupboards of all unwanted unhealthy stuff. In 14 days time you will start noticing the differences in your clothes. After 21 days you will have engrained your new healthier habits. In 60 days it will be a lifestyle change for good. I have been addicted to bread, and I can honestly say I don't miss it any more.

@Sepia. Thanks very much! Sorted.

Bump.

Thanks for the offer. I will keep that in mind. Maybe if I can drop the bikes and carrier at your house and make use of the normal parking facilities. That will help a lot. Let us see what else pops up

This is perhaps a long shot, and a bit late, but I am looking for a friendly Durban Hubber that can store my car, with a bike rack and 2 bikes, for a week from Monday 8 April to Friday 13 April. We are going on the MSC Sinfonia, and I know there is parking near the Harbour available, but since we are going up the North coast afterwards I want to bring two mountain bikes as well. Otherwise I will have to box the bikes and, or, tow a trailer to lock the bikes in. I am off course willing to pay in cash for such a kind gesture.

Loss off electrolytes is a major cause of night cramps. This can be caused by to much caffeine (coke, coffee). Can also be caused by other diuretic foods and drinks. A low carb diet is also known to be diuretic. Major physical activity without purposefully replacing the electrolytes might also cause night cramps. Most of the time, all that is needed is upping your salt intake slightly. Adding extra salt, or consuming a salty soup or broth once or twice a day.

At last easter is now a thing of the past. Refocus everyone.

Morkel not likely to bowl in second innings. Rabada carrying an injury. We are going to win the series anyway. Keep the Ausies in the field as long as possible.

Break through at last! Proteas looking completely flat this morning. As if they had an early celebration last night.

Would have been 4 runs down to fineleg if he wasn't standing up. Absolutely brilliant wicket keeping!

What a catch by Quinnie!! Down the leg side, standing up to the fast bowler! Might not be in the best form with the bat, but a catch like that is worth 50 runs in my book!

I am off the opinion that sandpaper, and or different ball tampering devices have been in use by the current Australian cricket team under the Leadership of Smith and Liegman for quite a while. Remember they came into the recent ashes series as complete underdogs. All of a sudden all of the fast bowlers 'hit form', and they were all over the English batsmen like a rash.

You mean Darren Liegman.

Got a videoclip of a thermal camera on WhatsApp today. Some cold bus station or airport or similar. Lady lets out a fart. Big thermal cloud escapes her behind . Quickly moves away from the incriminating area. Sou lekker wees om tydens die ‘Ballgate’ saga so thermal kamera op Liegman, Skuld, Bankrot en Warnedya te kon hê, om te sien hou hulle washers knyp en flaters paseer!

Thanks! January was fast. 8 kg in January alone. Since then much slower but steady. I am not starving myself, just eating healthy food. No bread, pasta, potatoes and so on. Meat, fish, dairy, poultry, fruit and vegetables.

94.7 at the moment. Only down 2.7 in March. Slow but steady. With some serious dedication and focus I might be below 94 come the next official weigh in on 1April. Then there is 8 more to go. Lost 12.9 since 1 January!

Step counting devices are not very accurate, and seldom gives a true reflection of either steps or distances covered. I would not be suprised at all if Vitality drops step counting all together. I easily 'notch' up 5000 and more and even 10000 on occasion by driving around in my Hilux on the farm.

Homo erectus.

That was an ugly crash! Hope Cavendish is ok'ish.

There are more bikes than people in the Netherlands, and the cities are planned to accommodate bikes rather than cars.

Beware of backyard treatments! ????

Apparently not only aspartame but sweeteners in general causes an insulin response in man. Insulin is like the fat burning switch in the body, to much insulin causes the body to stop burning fat and rather start storing fat. Taste receptors in the tounge sends a signal to the brain that something sweet is on the way to the stomach and small intestines. Brain sends a signal to the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream. So while the diet soda may contain very little calories it may interfere with a weight loss effort, by stimulating an unwanted insulin response. There were tests done with people swirling energy drink around in the mouth for a second or two before spitting it out and rinsing the mouth with water. Just the brief taste of something so sweet was strong enough signal for an insulin response.https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/261179.php Not only that, but carbonated drinks are known to stimulate appetite. Even carbonated water. Rather stay away from carbonated drinks if you find that you are not losing as much or as fast as you like.

In my opinion points to miles is just a lot of hot air. On my hospital plan (esential core), R7500.00 and higher pa puts you in the high claimer category. That is about half a day in hospital per year. Ridiculous!
