    Oh my God, I just had my first outdoor jog in a year (maybe because I felt guilty for the 700 grams of potatoe chips yesterday), and I thought I was gonna die at least 14 times. Quite embarassing, running through the park full of families and casual walkers, and looking like a 80-year-old geriatric in terms of shape.

    Geez. shame

  4. I've been on a health kick recently, trying to lose some weight and get fit in order for me to play competitive football for the first time since I left high school. So I've been cutting down on my calories, drinking Slim-Fast shakes, and I've lost about 12 pounds in weight in a little over 6 weeks.

    I played my first game 2 weekends ago - and, boy, was I out of shape! Fortunately, the league I play in allows unlimited substitutions, so you can roll on-roll off at will. I played about 50 minutes of the 90 in total on the right side of defence, and we won 4-3! I was tired, but I really enjoyed it smile

    And then, on Saturday (2 days ago), I was out and about running some errands for my wife, and as I was leaving a shop I dropped a coin, and as I bent down to pick it up I tore the thigh muscle on my right leg. So now I'm on crutches, taking painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs, and can't play for 6 weeks. Grrrr! angry

    it's good to see so many people getting or trying to get into shape. Sad you'll have to be patient now for about a couple of weeks. Speedy recovery!

    but it does give you ample time to listen to music instead smile

    the problem for me is, staying into shape. I love it when I get a healthy boost, but after several months I don't want to continue doing all those workouts because I lack the enthusiasm and the character to continue. But I know I love it when (after a workout) I take a shower and feel myself refreshed from all the physical workout

    I agree.

    But tell me, where in Thor's own confessions do you read "small dosages"?

    I eat chocolate every day too, usually one of these bars:

    http://veg-veg.no/media/bocca_70.jpg

    70% cocoa, so not that bad.

    Sometimes, however, I go for the milk variant instead, which is not as healthy but which tastes damn great.

    As for potatoe chips, I try to steer clear during the weekdays, but then usually go crazy in the weekends.

    I'll cling to this habit to the day I die; it's one of those things that makes life worth living. Like beer, travelling and a good party. If that means I'll cut my lifespan short with a few years, so be it. Those extra years would just be spent working out anyway.
    I am extremely serious.

    I picked up the weights for the first time in well over a year today, starting very lightly and when I say light, i mean light, I've learnt from many years of experience how picking up weights that seem easy can leave you in a lot of muscular pain the next day, so it's easy going for the first week, just half an hours excercise today.

    Just goes to show, despite taking it very easy yesterday I am aching a little bit. Today I'm going to do some aerobics and stretching.

    Ozzie slang for "afternoon"

    It's the one thing that stuck in my mind after utterly overdosing on Neighbours morning TV when I was young, jobless and depressed.

    Strangely, I'm also now having this debate over at FSM, in which my anti-Healthy Hysteria stance is in play again:

    http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/p … ;archive=0

    Also strangely...just a few years ago, when the focus in media and social settings wasn't so intense in relation to health, work-outs and firm bellies, I was pretty pro-workout. Then today, when the focus is greater than ever, I'm becoming more and more anti-workout. :D

    Must be my allergy to majority opinions and consensus.
    I am extremely serious.
  30. Sectarianism seems to be raising its ugly head again in Scottish football with parcel bombs being sent to Celtic manager and prominent Celtic supporters.

    Big Celtic v Rangers match at the weekend (Easter Sunday) and they have announced that children will accompany the players onto the pitch as a sign of "integration".

    My first thought (pessimistic) was "human shield" rather than as a sign of integration.
