Ok, i think im in for tomorrow. After gym, before studying.

Not drinking though as it seems to ruin my whole week.

You can face the Morleys sober?

Didn't have energy problems. Did have "Oh my god, this saddle is destroying my arse" issues.

In. (Out for SE)

Really? I reckon it would do warp speed.

Daytime rides to the coast are so much less knackering than overnight ones. In.

If you're a mac user, you'd probably like Win 3.1 UI

Until OS X came out, Mac-heads were using the equivalent of Win 3.1. It looked much nicer, but it was just as obsolete and decrepit under the hood. Co-operative multitasking, forsooth!

/me waits for next post from Iain saying "What about now?"

Hell, I often wear a purple LCEF cap with the forum jersey. There isn't much that actually matches it.

Thanks for the cap. Nice to have, particularly since Brixton Cycles new caps are so, well, less good than the old ones.

Balls.

While Atkins is a bit of a fad, most people could benefit from eating less carbs and more protein/fat. Western diets tend to be carb heavy, which may not be optimal for losing fat.

Most people would benefit from lowering their carbohydrate intake, yes. More protein, maybe, but probably not - a lot of people eat more meat than they need to, so get plenty of protein (and often more fat than they need - surplus all round). Higher fruit and vegetable intake would be a better win, for the average slob, providing fibre and essential nutrients and vitamins of which which they don't currently consume enough.

@Starfish: People can benefit from almost any kind of diet, while they're on it. If you "go on a diet", you submit yourself to discipline for the period of the regime. Then you come off and you probably just gain weight again.

Diets like Dukan are particularly bad for this because they have to be temporary. You can't eat like that permanently without damaging your health. Ignore fads like Atkins and Dukan; don't go on a diet, change your diet. Realise that if you're overweight, you probably have bad eating habits which require permanent change.

Yep, all good here. Must post another photo of the Cougar - bar tape has changed as a result of switching the cable routing. Now even less tasteful!

Takes a lot of commute to work off a donut.

The problem with once a week is that you need a lot of patience if you're going for a moderate weight loss (one to two pounds a week). No matter how hard you try, you can't cancel out that variation, meaning that you may have to wait two or three weeks to be sure of the trend. If you weigh yourself more frequenty, the trend will be much clearer but you have to disciplined and not let it panic you into reacting immediately to the most recent change. "OMG, I'm nearly two pounds heavier than last time, no more food today!"

Do you have any kitchen scales? If you can use them to weigh a few items (bags of flour, jugs full of water etc) you should be able to compare your kitchen scales and bathroom scales and establish how reliable or variable the scales are.

I had a set of scales which were susceptible to the slope of the floor and would give different results, varying by a couple of pounds, depending on orientation if there were any camber to the floor (which there is, in fact, in my bathroom).

How much were you expecting to have lost? Remember that your bodyweight will vary by a couple of pounds, sometimes more, over the course of a day; unless you can guarantee to always way yourself while your bowls are empty and your hydration level is absolutely perfect, you're going to see a variation from day to day. Sometimes that variation will mask your weight loss (e.g. you lost half a pound of bodymass but you ate a curry which really isn't shifting yet).

Cup of tea first, though.
