Gramsci wrote:Okey doky. I’ve lost 7 kg –that 14 pounds to you Imperials- over the past few months with ease. And I’ll tell you the secret, but if requires a little discipline. I’ve passed this on to a few friends and it has worked for them.

Firstly, a little breakfast, cereal with soy milk etc. If you’re like me you work in a job that requires very little physical effort so during the day ONLY EAT FRUIT. Eating a lot during the day if you do nothing is pointless and why when you hit 30 you get fat.

The next bit is important, when you finish work etc. Get off the bus, subway etc so you have at least a 15min walk ahead of you and walk to fast –if you drive walk quickly away from your house for 10 mins and then walk back. As soon as you get in the door, head straight for your room and do 100 sit-ups. -The sit-ups bit is hard at first but gets very easy after a couple of weeks and gets rid of your beer belly.

Dinner, -or turning Japanese as I call it-. Convert to a Japanese-Asian diet. Fish, rice, noodles etc. NO BREAD.

Now, the best apart of this whole thing, the reason it is so easy to stick with is…

You only do this Monday morning to Friday evening, Friday night to Sunday bedtime eat pizza, drink too much and do no exercise as usual.

Trust me, this one works and is painless.


Fuckin' beautiful, Gramsci!!

Great ideas.

Now, you never answered me about the difference between American chewing tobacco and Swedish Snus. I'm still curious. Thanks!

taekwondo has worked wonders for me. i don’t have a weight problem. never have. but it just overall makes me feel better. plus, i feel safer too. i think a big part of exercising is just learning how to breathe right.

I'll let Wikipedia give you the answer to that one.

Oh, and thanks for the positive comment, "the Method" works. It's a shame it's so fuckin' basic or I could make a million!

Salut

Not "too fat", but rather "too lazy".

do this

you may find that your desire to smoke and overeat is naturally curbed by yoga

this is what i found, though i was never a heavy smoker

when i don't go regularly (like the last four months), the old thirst for grease and sugar comes back. and i'm more likely to want to smoke when around smokers.

plus: yoga with your wife? this is great for many reasons.

Think they must be one and the same, the Scandi names are a give away, although the European version doesn't have any flavours apart from tobacco.
