RIU Weight loss Support Group

Hey! Where's the weight gain support thread?!? I'm looking for 3kgs ASAP!!

If you want to lose weight do the opposite of what I do. I never drink whilst eating so I don't get waterlogged. I drink only a bit until after. Try a glass of water before eating.

Secondly , don't eat late at night. I have to. Just ate chicken and mushroom Pie and am going to bed soon.

Also, cut out bread. I have to eat loads of it for carbs. Had 3 croissants for breakfast con cafe.

''Step into my world I'll show you the meaning of mean!'' This ones for your Ryan!

I wanted to throw a kettle ball at his crotch….

When my ex was learning how to swing a kettle bell it once slipped out her hand flew all the way to the balcony window/door and broke it. Cost 400 euros to replace the fucking glass.

Grow your own food and sell some surplus like an OG. 5 euros now thats gangsta! Still prolly enough to buy enough legumes for a month, cant complain!

In that case i shall promise and promise and totally fail to deliver, like a good politician!

FINALLY I excelled at a crossfit workout ! I am feeling pretty good. It was some insane shit, doing massive reps of all diff, kettle ball swings, rowing machines, etc. 10 different drills for time.

I have been feeling so inept this past month with all the dead lifting, cleans, presses, blah blah blah. I always came in dead last. Which was okay, since it's all new, but after a month I was like, "okay, Can we have a work out that I can actually DO?"

Today was the day. It involved running, jumping and endurance. Before X-fit my workout was running for an hour and a half and dance. Both came in quite handy for today.

I finished first!! (even the men) Smoked 'em all in the running part. I may not have the brute strength (yet) but i am like a diesel. Once warmed up I can go forever. It's not so much being first,(though that did give me a much needed boos of encouragement) but the high of asking my body to give more, and dig man. And it did! It's great to be able to surprise yourself every now and then.

Good for you man!

The kale in my garden is kind of ready to pick leaves off so i tried kale for the first time after reading how good it is etc etc. So made a juice with cucumber from the farm as well and i went and nicked an apple off the neighbours tree just so i could say its 0 cost juice. lol



Kale is the best tasting leafy green ive tried juicing

Seriously? I find Kale to be very strong tasting. I eat it anyway (grow it too) b/c it's so nutrient dense. but it is loud. LOL

I eat at least 4 cups mixed greens in my smoothies each day. BTW, read that adding a hunk of lemon peel to your juices/smoothies is very beneficial. Lots of bio flavanoids. Just finished my greens for the morning. I always feel like Superwoman when I eat them

I didn't climb to the top of the food chain to eat spinach. I enjoy my slaughtered, bloody, masticated cow meats.

Dunno maybe the strain i have is a bit less loud? Mine doesnt look like most piuctures ive seen online. I can tell it doesn t like much more than 4 or 6 direct hours of sunlight, perhaps having it more under the sun only cause superfluous chorophyl propduction altering taste?

Ye man small citrus fruit peels are THE SHIT. I usually put half to a whole lemon in the juicesdepending how big. I usually put literally everything they sell at the green grocers into a juice but now that its summer i try to live off my farm as much as possible.

Oh i also foliar my kale with molasses, maybe that could have an effect on a quieter taste.

In winter im planning toi dedicate at least half my land to growing kale and se if i cant sel it in the region to those posh refugee shops for food.

What does kale go for in your neck of the woods??? I think spain has never seen kale, ive asked everyone. Might even have to make a information pamphlet when giving out samples at shops lol. Sucha stoner

Oh yeh my kale are pretty small, could be. Kale chips? I was just planning to eat it raw in salads or in juices. Planning to give it my chicken too see how those eggs turn out. Im not a fan of chips (io think thats the american version of crips right? awfullness in a bag?) though sounds interesting. Id imagine one would heat the oven with two trays in it and spread seasoned kale leaves and have them betwen the two hot trays?

no need to press, just season and bake. I think there is a small bit of oil used. The thing is that there are tons of receipts, but some call for slow oven bake at low temp others call for higher heat, flash baking. Just curious if you ever made them,

Naw man, I mean How long to bake? Some call for low temps, others hi.

I dont know i dont cook like that I hover and check

here is a similar recipe just take out the cumin and sprinkle parm instead (unless you want to smell like cumin stank)

lightly covered in shredded parm
1/3 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp cayenne (add 1/8 tsp for spicier chips)
1/8 tsp salt
2 Tbsp olive oil
½ lb kale (about ¾ a bunch), large stems removed, cut into 2 to 3-inch pieces

How to make it:
1. Preheat the oven to 275ºF. In a medium bowl, combine the spices, salt, and oil. Stir to dissolve. Add the kale and toss to coat.
2. Spread leaves in a single layer on two baking sheets. Try to flatten any folded-over pieces for optimum crispness. Bake until the tips of leaves are slightly crispy, about 10 minutes. Use a spatula to turn the leaves over, and continue to roast until the leaves are crisp and slightly golden, 8 to 10 minutes more. Makes 4 servings.
