lol no thanks, for the sake of a few extra % points of BF, I'll keep eating what I like. I'm not about gain to much from dropping a bit of extra fat, maybe some satisfaction?

Which I get more than enough of by eating what I like :)

I'm sure it could be argued that there are healthier ways to lose fat than fasting, but I'm not qualified, or care enough, to get into that side of things.

I'll just sit and wait unitl next time, which will probably be within a week, of your change in mind about how you look or your diet.

Maybe you should try it, 'the silly fad', don't really, you might accidently get rid of that fat you dont like.

Fasting actually provides a buttload of health benefits (not just reduction of bodyfat), with next to no downsides. Not pointing at YOU at all here Dan, but I'm actually getting quite sick of the overwhelming ignorance on this subject. The next person to insist that fasting is bad for your health is gonna get a slappin'

The way I see it, I enjoy eating way too much - not specifically the taste of what I'm eating, but more so the volume. There lies my reason for fasting so often - if it allows me to binge out every now and then without being in a huge caloric surplus, then that's all that matters coz it'll keep me happeh

No idea in grams, most of our meals include either staple veggies, corn, carrots, broccoli etc and then other meals have side salads, so lettuce, carrot, red/green capcisum, cucumber etc.

I also have a few bits of fruit of each day.

Even something like a bolognaise will have grated zucchini and carrot in it. Home made pizzas on pitas will have grated zucchini, red/green caps, mushrooms, pineapple etc.

We try and include then in the majority of meals.

If you count shitty frozen veg mixes, then HEAPS. I generally like to pour as much of the shit into the frying pan as there is meat.

FRESH vegetables are pretty rare, unless you count mushrooms and shitty leafy salad crap.

No reason NOT to increase veg intake (unless you're already eating buttloads including carb-dense stuff like potato). The way I see it, just about any veg I consume has negligible caloric value anyway, so I bolster my meals with plenty of them - given that as I said earlier, my issue with food is the VOLUME my appetite tries to have me eat, not so much the taste (hence I can't eat small meals :( )...more veg = more filling, without shiteloads of calories.

Oh and veg is usually full of everything we need outside of the 3 macro nutrients :D

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
