As is already said above, cut out alcohol, drink more water. Drop sugary/man made foods, don’t eat fruit etc before bed. Phone off, TV off an hr before bed, read a book or something. Cut down on caffeine if you drink a lot in the day and make sure your eating enough good food to sustain whatever amount of exercise you are getting.

Edit: missed your last post. There will be things you can do to improve diet etc and it will help. What do you drink in the evenings (dont mean booze BTW), is your bed/room comfy? You might think you are sleeping well but possibly not as well as you think you are

‘little wife in tears’? With a description that derogatory I’m surprised she’s not in tears all the time! That is all!

Don’t be so quick to judge, how do you know that he doesn’t have a ‘big’ wife and a ‘medium’ wife tucked away who haven’t had the upset of a parking fine?! 😆

I’m sort of here DezB. You lot have shocking taste.

Run like you are being chased by a dinosaur, throw your arms about and scream ‘noooooooooo, someone ate my last rolooooooooo’ for the full length of the run, it will burn more calories I promise.
But other than that, what Becky said and start small, build up nice and easy. Or you could do what I did and try a 10k in the heat of summer with rubbing shoes and accompanied by someone for whom 10k is a warm up. Not recommended for a first run but jolly good fun and I survived.

Omg WANT

Is that the technique that has saved the world of many mini horas then?

Not something ill ever relate to and gut instinct was to reply with a ‘MTFU’ but ….. it probably is scary but kids aren’t the end of your life, there are worse things that could happen and although its not the adventure you originally had planned with your wife, it’s a different adventure that you will probably enjoy just as much. I’ve only ever met 1 or 2 people that regretted having their children an they have some other very serious issues. Talk to your wife, she’s probably bricking it as much as you.

Did I say cock zokes? No I did not. I thought all men engaged in willy wars anyway? No? You do really don’t you 🙂

I bet they have willy wars all the time.

Careful you don’t get chaifidge off your pubes! ^^^assuming you have them^^^

Animal balloon making experience day?

Spa day?

Are happy endings the norm these days then?

Haaaaaaahahahahaha Jamie you are being watched!!

Do you feel all warm and happy inside now Pie?

Clearly you know nothing Sturmey, women spend their changing room time massaging moisturiser into their breasts and helping eachother to moisturise eachothers buttocks while making cute little sex noises. 😉

I believe that men have been helicoptering since the dawn of time, or at least since they realised they had a willy to wave

although – doesn’t your willy shrivel up when you get old? There wouldn’t be much to wiggle?

It is quite a magnificent thing to behold, especially when performed by someone quite experienced in the ancient art of helicopterereering.

as long as they aren’t doing the helicopter in your direction I don’t see what the problem is? It’s only a penis?

after dinner drink? I think if you take something to a meal it’s generally to be drunk on the night?

Not really. I didn’t try particularly hard, I hated school and everything about it, including the work. I even dropped a GCSE because I literally couldn’t be bothered with the coursework. I’m glad I’m trying now. Two modules to go with the OU until I finish my Degree with hons. That I am much more proud of than some average to poor GCSEs, most of which I can’t even recall!

it’s the sentiment that’s the key. Stop being such a baby and get your arse off the sofa and practice your iron cross – wimp 😛

We’ve got some but I’ve not used them much, mostly just for pull ups or practicing balance. Don’t listen to all the ‘iron cross is hard’ crap. If you want to get it in 6 months, find out how to do it and get going, what people mean when they whinge about something being hard is that it’s too hard for them.

He’s soooooo lovely *sighs*

Love the angle you are coming from Jamie. Inspired 😉

One more for good measure. Wouldn’t suggest you craft yourself into that particular body. *unless you want to and if you do that’s fine.

Here’s a motivational poster for you to put on your wall:

Just do it as Nike say. But first make sure you:

would it help if someone yelled at you over the internet?

Have a look on YouTube, there’s loads of workouts you can do at home that don’t really need equipment. Do burpees/squat jumps, running on the spot, star jumps, press ups (loads of variations to have a go at), dips, sit ups/crunches etc. Burpees are the absolute best thing ever if you dont have cash to waste, loads of variations and every one of them killer. Do as many as you can in a minute, rest for 30secs/a minute and repeat. Do that 5-6 times and keep a log of how many you do so you can see yourself getting better.

Go for a run, join a running club or a club of some sort that you just pay a couple of quid a go for, have an ask around for a local group that does cross fit or something, much better than some crappy gym!

Exercise does not need to be in a gym, get your head around that, you’ll be fine. You only need to do 30 minutes a day, you can certainly find it in the hrs you are working!

No, not really. I can put both hands flat on the ground, and if I warm up enough, can still do the splits

Same here, but I stretch. A lot. Hubby is embarrassingly inflexible in some parts. I’m sure it can’t be good for you to be so stiff and wound up?

I’ve decided it looks like sick, that’s why not really feeling the love for it

Cumin! Yes. I normally don’t venture beyond carrot & red lentil soup and that has cumin in it. Lovely

Yessssss did all that then shoved a load of veg and whatever else in. Think I shuddve put spices in, reckon that’s what’s missing

Yayeeee! Hate wasting food so will spilt it up and freeze the rest 🙂

Don’t taste of much though, chicken makes rubbish soup

What sends me nuts is when women sneer at us, saying how we aren’t in touch with our emotions, how dysfunctional we men are. It’s one rule for them, and one rule for us. They are totally unsympathetic, but virtually demand sympathy when the boot is on the other foot. A rather gaping lack of empathy on the part of women. Herein lies the problem, if you want my humble opinion!

Don’t stick us all in the same boat-not all women are the same, just like not all men are the same.

Someone who’s husband was a psychiatrist specialising in suicide told me once that death rates are always very high amongst young males, a combination of changing/raging chemicals/hormones etc and the fact that the front cortal something or other in the brain which controls the ability to make judgments doesn’t fully develop until late 20s. Combine that with mental health in general still being quite taboo and it all ends up too much for some people.

Dogs lick their own scrotum, eat shite and all manner of other things out walking so I really don’t think boob milk will do any harm? MTFU.

awww I loved it! Ive never seen a musical before and I’d now love to see it on stage. I just want to sing everything now. Husband is not so enthusiastic about the singing 🙁
