Weight loss


There's an old saying in my family while around turtles and tortoises: "If you hump, you can't feel the lump."

So control yourself. I know that leatherback turtles are scientifically proven to be the 3rd sexiest animals on the planet, but this is no reason to rape one. We now know, after decades of research, that turtles are incapable of speaking any human languages so they cannot give consent. Their heads are also too short to nod properly, as per Michael Jackson vs The State (2001) court filing and verdict.

So while around turtles, never pump if you wanna measure the lump...

If I've learned nothing in the last eight months it's that I'm quite good at under-estimating my BF %. At the start I estimated it was 17-19% range. After a couple months of definitely reducing fat, I realized it couldn't have been 17-19, because that's now how it looked. Repeat for the next couple months.
Similarly I've spent quite a long time in the 12-14 range. :rolleyes:
I now have to conclude I started off in the 24-26 range; I was at border control between the states of skinny-fat and chubby-fat but that truth would've been a depressing thought at the outset.

I've stopped caring about the number. It is what it is, and it ain't what it needs to be is all I know.

On another matter... Arghhhh the xmas chocs everywhere! Once you develop a healthy cynicism for these things, you start seeing supermarkets as very sly. **** 'em, let them stick their ****ty sugar traps on the corner of every aisle and build pretty displays in every spare inch in between, I DO NOT WANT.

It's just weird because last year around this time I went through a pretty bad patch and the amount of sugar I consumed Nov through Jan was hideous. A half kilo of those xmas chocs each night was not unusual :(
If I ever get my hands on a time machine, I'm mostly just going to be going back and finding myself at the shops and slapping myself. Will be much slapping going down.
 
I'm not too fussed about body fat or a six-pack. I just want a frigging flat tummy. Even after I eat! :D
 
Oh I almost posted here recently to ask why Lindt don't print nutritional info on products; then it occurred to me Lindt can probably answer this better than the venerable members of mybb.

So I emailed Lindt to ask why they don't print nutritional info on their products. They responded (next day) and according to them this is not an SA requirement.
Something in the back of my mind said nuh-uh, so I went and searched a bit and found out about R-146 - the 2010 regulation that made printed nutrient analysis a requirement. I emailed them back a link to the pdf on the DoH website (http://www.doh.gov.za/docs/regulations/2010/reg0146.pdf - section 50 being the relevant one).

Awaiting a response still (over a week)... any guesses what their excuse, if any, will be? My money's on "packaged internationally, for international markets". Which fails because I've seen the CT office address on their products.
I need to figure out how to steer this in the direction of free stock. Or decide how much of a nuisance to make myself if they're hoping to just ignore me, as it seems they are. Poor form, Lindt, poor form.
 
Stop fading you bastards, I will beat each of you with a chocolate cake if you don't get active and motivated again
 
I think I'll take the chocolate cake beating.....

I'm more motivated now than when this whole business started.

I've always performed better under pressure :D

Someone posted the nutritional values of a bar of Lindt here somewhere, not sure where they got it though.
