    Having the worst day of my life. According to the Nutritionist exercising for an hour a day and eating home cooked meals is wrong because there's 'sugar in vegetables'. I'll just go shoot myself and live on fresh air so. You wouldn't eat 'a whole packet of tic tacs would you?' Jesus like heaven forbid two calories might upset you. Of course she doesn't believe in calories which are only the most recognised fcking method of judging food worldwide like. I think I look fine and healthy anyway.

    Forget Nutritionists, you should see a dietitian. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist but to be a dietician you have to have a degree. I'd rather take the advice of someone whose done a 4 year university degree instead of someone whose done an online course in bolloxology.

    We've all had gross stuff in our mouths to be fair

    You're right. I'm a trained chef so I have her game with food and she can't catch me out and it's just basically an argument.

    Give me her details and let her assess my diet, she'd be running back to you praising you. "You wouldn't eat an entire packet of tic tacs, would you?" Damn right I would, twice.

    If you paid her money, demand it back. That's a con artist right there.

    I was in a restaurant yesterday for some breakfast. The entire place was empty with about 25 tables. Then soon after I ordered from the menu a woman walked in and sat facing me at the very next table. The whole place was empty yet she walked from the door over to the table right next to mine. None of the other tables were good enough for her, up at the window, the other side of the room, in the middle. No, she had to sit facing me at the next table so I would have to look at her every time I glanced up from my breakfast. I moved.

    My hero. :)

    Ah, that's a toughie. I like to eat - so I run off the calories. With my injured foot the last week or so I've been fairly sedentary and I can already feel the weight coming on.

    Try a dietitian. Or a personal trainer could be worth a shot, they might be able to find some exercises you could do that won't aggravate your arthritis.

    Swimming? Anytime I've lost weight honestly it's like 70% diet. Obviously moving is important too, even just a walk for an hour in the evenings. Since about xmas I've dropped 2 sizes because I lost my appetite/was a bit sick. Don't think there's any quick fixes. Input < output

    Swimming is a good shout actually!

    Thing is, people often say it's mostly diet - and I'd agree - but if you are making the effort to exercise I find it tends to reinforce good eating habits.

    If you go out and burst a gut burning 400 calories running, you're more inclined to look twice at that chocolate brownie and go "Nah, I'll have an apple instead".

    Also, if I'm running, swimming, cycling or whatever, I find I'm more inclined to be active in general. More likely to walk somewhere instead of driving, etc.

    So really, both go hand in hand in my eyes. Plus you don't run the risk of becoming skinny-fat. :D

    When you meet lads you went to school with and they've shortened their first name e.g. it's not Andrew anymore it's Andy, or it's now Art instead of Arthur.

    I'm not going back to her again, she basically called me an alcoholic for having two lite beers a couple of nights. Plus she looks like washed up sh*t so it should be her looking to me for advice. People get a certificate and think they can power trip others.

    Getting older bothers me a lot. At the end of this month I'll be the far side of 26. We have a girl on work experience one day a week, she's still In college so quite young. She told me today I looked too young to be manager. She was horrified when I told her I had a real degree, an engagement and x amount of experience before I became manager. "But how? You're so young!" How old do you think I am? "Mm 20, 21?"

    Now I assume she was being generous or being a lick but my last client this evening started telling me how amazing my skin is , and it's the perks of being young. I say I'm not that young, and she says "you're about what? 21?" So twice in one day I get mistaken for being young.

    And God be with the days when people would say "ah youre still Young" when you'd tell them your real age. Now it's "God you don't look 26" :(

    Old is when you're tucking your nipples between your toes and saying 'back in my day blah blah.'

    There's something about 26/27 though. Only a couple of years ago for me, but that's when I started freaking out about getting old too.

    I think it's because I still felt exactly the same as I had at college, but I suddenly started noticing that people of college age looked young to me. I was something different all of a sudden - a grown up.
