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

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
