But surely thats not going to work? Just cut down on cake and still enjoy it and take 2 months to loose the weight. If you cut out cake for a month, I reckon you will find it hard not to eat the same amount as before and put your stone back on.
Well, it's either that or buy another suit 🙂
It'll work
I've always been very good at maintaining my weight, I fell over this time as I spent the Winter in Lanzarote doing not much more than eating and drinking
[i]Getting on well enough not to tell us your BF%[/i]
So how do I offer you an accurate figure ?.
I'd ESTIMATE that I'm around the 13 percent mark.
[i]Since whens that a good thing?[/i]
Eerrrr. Since I have time for other things.
Like living, having a life rather than being an ignorant gym rat, counting calories.
😀
[i]Wrong about what exactly? [/i]
As you know.
I asked you about Calories from Protein and Carbohydrates.
You avoided this question.
We know why.
May I laugh now ?.
😆
[i]Solo - you silly (paleo) sausage...[/i]
😆
I see your mission.
Its doomed to failure, something you'll be familiar with.
You are barking up the wrong tree.
But at least you are consistent.
😉
[i]When have I ever said people can eat as much as they want[/i]
Trollin at its best.
🙂
So how do I offer you an accurate figure ?
If you don't have any body fat calipers use an online calculator, they are accurate enough, better than guessing anyway.
Eerrrr. Since I have time for other things.

I enjoy exercising, learning about nutrition, and being as healthy as possible and I'm ignorant! 😆
I asked you about Calories from Protein and Carbohydrates.
You avoided this question.
What do you want to know exactly?
The question must have been so important I forgot to answer it.
LOL - so you won't offer advice on the paleo diet?
I'm not sure I'll ever understand why you appear to dislike people that enjoy exercise? Not everyone considers it a chore.
Solo - I would say you were trolling us now, but you seem to care a little too much and have obviously felt hurt by the discussions on here. Again, I'm sorry about that.
Also, I have met quite a few people who are somewhat overweight rather than obese, and decide to get thin by hitting the gym. They got fitter, stronger and felt better, but didn't lose weight. It's fairly common from what I hear.
If I went to the gym looking like this:

and ended up like this:

I would regard it as a result, no matter what happened to my weight.
Muscle is more dense than fat so if people start putting on muscle, their weight will go up.
[i]If you don't have any body fat calipers use an online calculator, they are accurate enough, better than guessing anyway. [/i]
I used that US Navy calculator that we all had a crack at a few months ago.
It reckoned I was 9 percent.
Good enough for you ?.

Nothing stopped you going back to find it..... 😉
Then it was repeated with no answer......
[i] learning about nutrition[/i]
I suggest you continue with the utmost urgency.
😀

If there is a big-hitter equivalent for being wrong.
Then please consider yourself as granted a special place in the patheon of types who are very, very wrong.
😆
Its an achievement of sorts.
😆
Thats different though isnt it, to become a fast racer you need to alter diet and in many ways become unhealthy, but healthy for racing a bike quickly
Well I will most likely fall short of the point where I need to become unhealthy. I suspect that my body fat will level out at a point beyond which I would have to do unhealthy things to myself to get it any lower. At that level, I would be pretty quick I reckon. Maybe I'll pursue it further, but I don't want to become unhealthy. I'll just take up track racing instead where I don't have to be ultra skinny 🙂
Solo - TBH with you mate, I don't have a clue what your point is.
So your BF% was 9% a few months ago when you had a crack at it, and its now 13% roughly.
Your doing well....
I'm getting on very well thanks.
And I do so with a lot less time exercising
So whos the fool ?.
i might be wrong, but doesn't TSY have different goals to you so comparing your exercise level to his is redundant and to call him a fool, well a little offensive....
yeti exercises cos he loves it, he doesnt count calories, and well... when it comes down to it he was able to enter the trans province and come 11th alongside the worldwide pro's without any training for the event. if his exercise started impacting on his body image, physical/mental health in a negative way then yeah he would be a fool, but the only time i've seen him injured was when he tried a gap drop messing around with jedi and landed short 😆
Oooo.
Theres and edit.
[i]Solo - I would say you were trolling us now, but you seem to care a little too much and have obviously felt hurt by the discussions on here. Again, I'm sorry about that.[/i]
Telling people that they are hurt.
Doesn't make it so.
However, me telling you, that you are wrong about that.
Is indesputable.
But as only you can....
Carry on.
😆
I'm still interested to see you and SW sort out the exercising loads allows you to eat what you please.
A habit for which you have become well known on this ere forum.
You do this.
SW thinks its the actions of someone who is [i]Dumb[/i]
😀
Which is it ladies ?.
If there is a big-hitter equivalent for being wrong.
Then please consider yourself as granted a special place in the patheon of types who are very, very wrong.
Which bit is so very, very wrong? You're one of the most complicated posters on here... I don't find it at all surprising that I don't understand you?
Telling people that they are hurt.

If I'm wrong, then you obviously just dislike me for another reason? I don't dislike you, I find you curious. Why do you persist with trying to be offensive if you're not scorned. Is this still about SITS... you seemed to get very annoyed that I never organised it?
Oh, and I do eat exactly what I please. 🙂
[i]So your BF% was 9% a few months ago when you had a crack at it, and its now 13% roughly.

You are very amusing.
The 13 percent figure was an estimate.
I wrote the word estimate in upper case for you.
[i]I'd ESTIMATE that I'm around the 13 percent mark.[/i]
Its up there ^^^^ higher up on this page.
So while you have tried to make it look as if I've gone from 9 percent to 13 percent.
You have totally miss read this thread.
I'm surprized your surpervisor has left you in front of the keyboard.
SW.
You have deliberately and consistently avoided my Qs.
miss read my posts.
You're not too bright are you ?.
Think I'll have to ignore you now.
Its your own fault

Oh lordy.
Now both of the B/E Bros are here.

I guess that would depend on what pleases you
Years back when I used to train hard, I had to force my self to eat more than pleased me, just to maintain weight.
So - if what pleases you is eating pig like quantities, you stand a fair chance of putting weight on
Normal eating patterns probably wouldn't though
when it comes down to it he was able to enter the trans province and come 11th alongside the worldwide pro's without any training for the event.
Congrats on that by the way.
LOL @ Solo... Phil - in your professional opinion...
Strictly it was 11 amongst the non-pros. I'm still beating myself up for not running a chainguide... that was foolish.
do we have an opinion on Spelt flour, if I can just distract you long enough from measuring your dicks... 🙄
honestly, get together, play soggy biscuit (or whatever it is you play), which ever wins...wins, ok?
edit: Jota...you fatty 😉 😆
what does B/E mean solo?
Bell End! We should probably get it removed. I'd consider it more offensive that 'winker'
Am I the only one who doesn't know what the **** Solo is arguing about?
Does he even have a valid point?
i asked solo, not you. dont make me come and intimidate you with my muscles, i can do 1 pull up without stopping for a rest now 8)
How on earth do you measure your body fat online?
[i]I'd consider it more offensive that 'winker' [/i]
Thats not what you posted earlier.
You've just promoted yourself to coq du jour.
😆 😆
[i]How on earth do you measure your body fay online[/i]
You don't, accurately.
But that hasn't stopped SW making a complete ass of himself.
coming on here.
Telling the OP to count calories as the end all be all.
While also ignoring my Qs, while I have tried to answer his accurately and faithfully.
so solo, what does B/E stand for when you type it on here referring to myself?
please answer my question "accurately and faithfully" as you expect others to do so when you ask them questions.
skywalker, out of interest, how old are you?
How on earth do you measure your body fat online?
Very easily and quite accurately.
Work out your lean body mass (involves lots of measuring) and subtract that from your total weight, leaving your BF%.
Alternatively buy some skin fold calipers off Ebay for £3.
Its not as accurate as skin fold calipers, but a lot more accurate than guessing like Solo does.
What has my age got to do with anything?
But that hasn't stopped SW making a complete ass of himself.

Ok....
Tell me what your point is, you don't seem to have one.
What has my age got to do with anything?
Grooming? 😯
The reason I ask is that age has a pretty major affect on body composition. Very often younger people are blase as they are still on the way up, as it were.
[i]please answer my question[/i]
😆
Come on TSY, tell us about the skin fold calipers and measuring BF.
[img]

😆
You need help Solo, I actually think you have lost the plot.
Don't tell me, skin fold calipers aren't an accurate way to measure BF.
i'm going to eat a boiled egg and think about whatever it is i'm meant to have done to upset solo, i'm a very nuaghty boy....
*is open to offers of punishment*
*COUGH TAZZY COUGH*

Solo, you look like an endomorph.
Are you short by any chance, it seems you have small man syndrome.
Being short and fat must suck.
Mmmm - I also think the age question is relevant...
[i]The Southern Yeti - Member
If I bump this will Solo see it and tell me whether I'm allowed milk after exercise on the iDiet?
[/i]
[i]The Southern Yeti - Member
Well done Molly... what pace?
Also, can you answer my milk question?
Hmmm... I think we need Solo's in depth analysis...
Solo I promise to read it all... no matter how lenghty the post or how little it looks like a poem.
[/i]
😉
No, I'm not bothered.
But this is just the tip of the iceberg of an ass you've been.
Trying to gee me up.
Proud of that ?.
Wonder why people might call you a B/E ?...
Theres more, Phil this time:
[i]i'm still scared to admit i have the odd sandwich, biscuit and chocolate bar incase you come round my house and beat me to death with a hard-bound copy of the iSolo diet[/i]
[i]The Southern Yeti - Member
I have some of those scales....... 17-18% fat.....
Professional with callipers <14%.
[/i]
[i]The Southern Yeti - Member
Someone said they missed this topic so I thought I'd start it up again.
I had my bodyfat measured with calipers the other day and [b]I'm disputing the results because it said 18%.[/b] They only took one set of pinches which is why I'm dismissing it... that and I'm skinny as hell.
If it's right though then I've got about 5kg to lose...
[/i]
You see ?.
The B/E Bros.
They're soooo funny.
[i]iDave - Member
it takes about 300 uses of skin fold calipers before someone is proficient.

EDIT:
😀
You need to calm down Skywalker. Your posts are now getting out of order.
Solo
Seriously
Step away from the Internet

wow, for that you're calling me a bell end.
hmmm i think this has all got a bit out of hand really. can you children not learn to play nice together?
it takes about 300 uses of skin fold calipers before someone is proficient.
So taking 3 measurements from each part and averaging them is less accurate than guessing.
Ok...
You seem to do a lot of guessing.
You need to calm down Skywalker. Your posts are now getting out of order.
Who appointed you referee?
I've been nothing but nice to Solo and all he has done is thrown abuse at everyone.
He shouldn't dish it out if he can't take some back.
Reading over this thread, TSY and Skywalker are coming across like quite the pair of internet bullies.
[i]wow, for that you're calling me a bell end. [/i]
What ?, you want me to list all your [i]comedy Material[/i].
😯
Solo, I apologise sincerely if you're read into my posts as being purposely offensive towards you, they've never been intended to upset you.
being called a bell end feels a little disproportionate to myself inferring that you're a little obsessed with nutritional science, especially as you regularly infer that TSY is obsessed with exercise.
but i dont expect an apology as it appears you're calling me a bell end for a reason, and i can only assume its because you feel i've gone out of my way to be nasty to you.. so i think i understand, i'm trying to anyway.
No, I'm not bothered.
Clearly.
EDIT: I would still like to know about the milk thing... you have some knowledge. I ask a question, you call me a bell-end. Well done.
