    Man, The new guy at work has handed in his notice and is leaving on Wednesday.
    Apparently, he feels like he's just not able for this job (he joined us right out of uni), which is a shame, i've been there before and he seems like a good guy.

    Still, impromptu midweek leaving drinks! Followed by an increased workload, but still. Drinks!

    "Farah beaten in Great North Run".

    If I'd just won that I'd be fuming.

    I ran the Stockholm Half marathon this saturday, but I hadn't ran at all since june 1st so I was 10 minutes slower than last year. Got 2.15.
    And I had to step into a portapotty to poop at 15km, so really I might have gotten an equal time this year. Decent improvement in base physical.

    Edit: Half Marathon. Of course.

    also i will now be the fat guy who gives weight advice but ultimately none of these decisions or anxieties are as important as eating better

    if you eat like a typical gorging person in the western hemisphere then realistically no amount of exercise will help

    in my experience (and I've come to realize from all the health forums I've visited that there are at least dozens of different body types in terms of what produces results) if you continue to eat taco bell by the party pack and exercise and you are a person who's prone to weight problems and not an elite body builder, your body will employ lots of great little defense mechanisms like prompting you into sleeping more or slowing you down ever so slightly or increasing your appetite to make it very difficult to sustain

    For me the two biggest factors that make sure my pants from age 15 are bigger than my pants now are giving up sugared soda, completely, forever, and eating a lot of fiber (idk the specifics of why but it seems to make me a lot more full and fibrous foods take longer to chew)

    It sucks there's no magic bullet, as of yet, I'm hopefully science will pull a "turn into an athlete" pill out of their beakers someday

    I really need to start working out again. Its just depressing how bad my cardio is at the moment, but the real issue is that I'm just straight bored by the enterprise at this point.

    This is why I desperately want the omni-directional treadmill to become real. I want "I need to work out" to be synonymous with "play online deathmatch until my legs stop working".

    Like the time I went bodyboarding in the freezing but excellent surf, felt myself getting tired and then fell over when I tried to run out of the water because it turned out I'd just been paddling and wading constantly against the waves and not realizing it.

    Eating out with people you don't know well is terrible. One of them is always a cheap fucker who clearly hasn't put in enough cash. So you end up in a really tense situation where you're somehow £40 short and suddenly everybody has to throw another fiver in.

    This happened at a friend's birthday a while back where she invited a lot of B-team friends. It was clear that the cheapskate was in that section. Nobody really wanted to go for a drink afterwards as things had got quite unpleasant.

    when we've come up short at pax it's mostly been because people haven't considered tax, which adds up on a $1600 ticket.

    also some people are cheap. that too

    You get a prix fixe every year?

    What I've found depressing is that I'm eating and working out about as well / much as at any point in my life and I still can't keep weight off. I was at 180 for years while I was dating / newlywed, but now I'm well past 210 and creeping towards 220. If things don't turn around, I'll just need to start buying 36" waist pants.

    The stupidest thing is my cardio is the best it's ever been. Ah well, guess that's part of hitting 30.

    Wait why do you feel dumb talking about dieting and working out? A bunch of us are trying to do both. No one's going to poop on you for taking care of yourself.

    Buying exercise equipment is the quickest way to ensure you will never exercise.

    mostly i just feel dumb as hell even thinking about going to the gym

    i don't know form i don't know much of anything I guess I can go and walk on a treadmill

    frankly I feel dumb just talking about dieting and trying to lose weight especially in [chat] because i basically feel like everyone is laughing and making a jerkoff motion

    but if I had a thing in my apartment at least i could turn the tv on and look dumb in semi-private

    Wait why do you feel dumb talking about dieting and working out? A bunch of us are trying to do both. No one's going to poop on you for taking care of yourself.

    Having your own treadmill is cool (but they are pricey and take up space).

    It is only day two and I am a stupid fat fuck about to get strong as fuck
