Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 31, 2016 Share Carbs... carbs is my problem. It is difficult to be on a low carb vegan plan. While soya, beans, lentils etc etc have a good protein value, they are also high in carbs. I need to probably change to a more plant based type diet to really see a big difference.MEAT....

My diet was a steers burger every day combine with fries. Going vegan has a very limited range of foods one can enjoy. Gave up the Vegan way when I worked at Spur. No way you can tell a client what is good on the menu when you are a vegan... Veebee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all varying degrees of "meh" Only one I'd reaaally consider is the bacon / avo / cheese burger with onion rings on top, and then maybe a steak on the hotplate, rare.

(2004 there round)Remember as a waiter you get access to some of the stuff that patrons do not have access to. just think... 500 grams of steak with a BP and sour cream... Stuff to drool for. We got the option to buy some of the stock that was about to be tossed at a very low price. Think a 500g steak and chips was some R15-00. Oh and getting the top waiter also had a reward... But thinking back, living on thinz, smokes, brandy and coke (or any liquor for that matter) and drugs did not help a lot. Alcoholism can screw you up big time.

Cois Posted June 3, 2016 Share Got on the scale. 0 movement.on 90,9 kg from Monday Been one super crazy week where I am under constant stress and worry due to this economic times, and seeing that my job might be in jeopardy. Had no Coke but had one bottle of flavour water (only water the shop had) and Sunday was the last day chocolate touched these lips. Had no fast food. A few Naartjies and 3 Apples for the week. Been taking vitamins as well (broad scope and 1000 mg of Vit C) So will see this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eccc whippet Posted June 6, 2016 Share If only there was simple solution...yet there is...it's all in the mind...but to try get it to focus on what is probably the most important task...your health...because without it you have nothing...it seems to find more trivial useless tasks...like worrying about a rattle in the Di2 lever...we won't go there. People outlay thousands on contracts...equipment special food...tablets and *** to get fit and loose weight...yet if we go back to basics....eat fruit an vegetables and exercise for 30 minutes a day your problem is solved...can someone send my brain the memo [emoji57] I have watched hours and hours of how to loose weight and get fit...no matter if the clip is 2 minutes or 2 hours long they all say the same the thing in a round about way...some spend 10 minutes telling how...by just buying some miracle information you will achieve results...yeah right. As I sit here preaching with my fat gut hanging over my pants sipping on my coffee with 2 sugars [emoji57] Please don't tell me my weight hasn't changed because the fat has turned to muscle...that must be the lamest phase I am yet to hear. Or that if I cycle faster and further I will loose weight...don't be fooled by that phrase either...I sit here heavier than I was at the beginning of this year with almost 3 000 km recorded on strava...since 1 January... PRs on just about every ride recorded...a block of high intensity training at cadence...which included 90 km on the trainer during the week and sometimes over 100 km over the weekend on the bike.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 6, 2016 Share Really, REALLY frustrating. Don't know if it's a water retention thing or something else, but I went up this morning. Gah! If it's water / moisture / whatever, it should be gone again in 2 days. Only thing I did differently was had a couple of beers after a 90 minute ride and putting up a wendy house. Ramping up the training again this week. Last week's was an easing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
