Warwagon what is your daily diet looking like.

Example being.

1)morning...

2 scoops of whey protein/ waxy maize or

8 egg whites and 1 cup of oatmeal

2)chicken breast

3/4 cup brown rice

veggies

3)tuna

whole wheat crackers or brown rice

veggies

4)pre workout about 1 hour prior to

chicken breast

1 cup brown rice

5)post workout

2 scoops whey and waxy maize for carbs

6) fish or chicken breast

brown rice

veggies

7) bed time meal

cottage cheese 1 cup

Also listing gram size per meal help's. If you cut your calorie levels too low it will end up damaging your self.

Something I've learned in my recent efforts to lose weight. Many people are the type that don't have the willpower to diet AND exercise, so DON'T DIET. Not in the way that people would CALL a diet anyway. Make some changes yes, but not drastic ones.. The best change you can make is portion size. I no longer use a full size plate for my meals. Instead I use a "side plate", one you'd normally put a sandwhich on.

This helps greatly with controlling portion sizes so that your body isn't dealing with a large number of calories in one go. It won't take long for your body to adjust to the smaller portions, and you can help the hunger pangs by snacking a couple of times a day on healthy options. Carrot sticks, cucumber slices, a little fruit (not too much! Natural sugar is STILL sugar!), tomatoes (yes, I know they're fruit), that sort of thing.

Dieting is a mugs game. Most people who do it fail miserably as they hit a target weight and go back to normal eating; and on go the pounds again.

Add regular exercise to a reduced portion diet, and weight WILL come off. 4 weeks ago a pair of 46" waist trousers were a snug but comfy fit. I can now pull those same trousers on or off without undoing them, and need a belt. Not QUITE down to a 44" yet, but I reckon another week or 2 and I will be.

Oh, and GO SWIMMING if you can. Trust me. ;) I hadn't been in 25 years and had never swum more than a single width of a pool in my life, I took my son on Saturday and did 3 lengths. 2 on my back, but it's still 3 lengths! I also had a hell of a lot of fun with my boy (he's 9), and HE had a load of fun too! Was a great bonding experience that I'm going to do regularly from now on. :)

That's pretty amazing, man. I had no idea one could lose that much weight just from an exercise bike... I actually like using those things. Maybe I should invest in one, or get a free one off craigslist...haha.

Are you going at a steady average pace, or is it pretty intense?

Wow all of that weight outta exercising in a workout bike? Just comes to show you just need a little effort and will power and you'll go a long way!

Congradz Warwagon, remember to keep exercising not just for losing weight, but to be healthy/in good shape as well! Cheers! :jump: :jump: :jump: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:

#2 speed.

Thanks. On all of the ones I've tried, they don't even have options to change the speed. It's kinda like they're on gear 5, but once you get going it basically pedals itself thanks to some fan / gyro thing. Which I suppose doesn't really help the person trying to lose weight, haha.

This one is digital. Takes 4 fracking D batteries. Though I've only had to replace them Once sense I bought the thing which has been over a year.

Congrats mate - how do you feel now? Like in terms of confidence or anything like that? Have you seen a change in your mood and fitness levels?

Well, I take less naps. Not really helping my social anxiety (or what I classify as that), but that's a whole other problem entirely, heh

Look into Phenibut. I use SNS Phenibut XT a few times a week. Helps my mood and has a nice calming effect which is good for people with social anxiety. Dose it at 500mg to 1g to start and it should kick in within an hour or two. 5-HTP also helps some people, but I find Phenibut to work better or use both.

    • Kdenlive 26.04.2 by Razvan Serea Kdenlive is an acronym for KDE Non-Linear Video Editor. It works on GNU/Linux, Windows and BSD. Through the MLT framework, Kdenlive integrates many plugin effects for video and sound processing or creation. Furthermore Kdenlive brings a powerful titling tool, a DVD authoring (menus) solution, and can then be used as a complete studio for video creation. Kdenlive supports all of the formats supported by FFmpeg or libav (such as QuickTime, AVI, WMV, MPEG, and Flash Video, among others), and also supports 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios for both PAL, NTSC and various HD standards, including HDV and AVCHD. Video can also be exported to DV devices, or written to a DVD with chapters and a simple menu. Video editing features: Multi-track editing with a timeline and supports an unlimited number of video and audio tracks. A built-in title editor and tools to create, move, crop and delete video clips, audio clips, text clips and image clips. Ability to add custom effects and transitions. A wide range of effects and transitions. Audio signal processing capabilities include normalization, phase and pitch shifting, limiting, volume adjustment, reverb and equalization filters as well as others. Visual effects include options for masking, blue-screen, distortions, rotations, colour tools, blurring, obscuring and others. Configurable keyboard shortcuts and interface layouts. Rendering is done using a separate non-blocking process so it can be stopped, paused and restarted. Kdenlive also provides a script called the Kdenlive Builder Wizard (KBW) that compiles the latest developer version of the software and its main dependencies from source, to allow users to try to test new features and report problems on the bug tracker. Project files are stored in XML format. An archiving feature allows exporting a project among all assets into a single folder or compressed archive.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.
    • People in the '50s and '60s had the same attitude, and we're still here over a half century later.
    • So after some fiddling I was able to get it to run at a pretty stable 30FPS. I'm slightly surprised about how much fiddling I had to do to get there though given what I thought was reasonable hardware: Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics Memory: 16 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon 780M Graphics Graphics Processor 2: AMD Radeon RX 7700S I think I could do it better if I use Linux rather than Windows, Windows RAM usage is stupid without stripping the system down. But once I got it working in a reasonable state, it was so awesome! I felt like a new Bond! If anyone has any advice to get things going a bit smoother FPS-wise, I'd appreciate it.
