“Pernicious”?

Aye that to

[Count Steer]

Currently having this debate with myself.

I'm reasonably sure I have a virus, but I'm not "ill" . I'm bloody knackered for no reason and had some headaches, but that's it. But that's how I've felt with viruses in the past . And, I've been doing two days of transfers each week to a bus full (or half full!) of tourists that are often coughing and spluttering behind me

But, I'm not ill, so can't stay home. I have stopped "bisous-ing" colleagues but TBF, by the time I feel like this I suspect the contagious time has passed !!


Hey ho

When i went to the doctors for always feeling knackered after a few tests it turned out i have a B12 deficiency and panacea anemia.

Side effect of going gluten-free? Lots of typically high gluten foods are good sources of B vitamins.

Unless you are a coeliac, why are you going gluten free?

Maybe:

'Despite growing numbers of people reporting such symptoms, gluten intolerance remains hotly debated in terms of its causes and management. Currently, the only recommended approach is to adopt a gluten-free diet.'

Unless you're Matt Damon of course. He's plugging it as a weight-loss diet. (You tend to lose water in the early stages so, yes, your weight can go down but....).

"If you can, get nitrate free bacon".

"Okay, but whats nitrate"?

"Time and half me old Son"!

Who decides what's dangerous?

Just nipping into town in t-shirt, shorts and flip flops?

Or out with the crazy boys on Sunday in full protection?

Your Govt apparently!

None of the scooter folk wear anything apart from helmets. Often with straps undone.

[weeksy]

Just how much harder it is to lose weight than it is to put weight on !!!!

And in some ways, less enjoyable.

I'm working on dropping some lard and fuck me, i nearly died on the indoor bike today... Was a struggle to even get upstairs for a shower afterwards !

At Portimao I'm riding like a loon at 175 every lap without a worry in the world.

Nipping into town in sunny gear, I ride with a lot more care.

It’s a hotly debated topic because like so many allergies and intolerances , they are self diagnosed. It obviously doesn’t make them not exist. But it is nowhere near the levels that fashion currently dictates.
And yes, if you are coeliac you have to exclude it. It’s an auto immune disease not an allergy

Yes, well, if even the experts don't agree, what's a person to do apart from giving gluten-free a go? (Or go through the tedious stages of an exclusion diet). If it works for them then, it works for them.

Inevitably there's a bit of 'band-waggoning' and the food industry is only too happy to satis£y demand. (See also high protein 'diet' - 'high protein' doughnut anyone? ).

Hi protein is truly bollocks. It was an American fad about 10 years ago when they produced hi protein Mars bars and Snickers amongst other laughable offerings. In the Western world very few people need more protein- esp when they are fat and American. But hey, it’s added value!
Meat substitutes is another great one - looks like meat, tastes like meat, and it is seriously the most processed food you will ever had.
Just like exclusion diets, it you want to be vegetarian or vegan look at it as a lifestyle change - not as a reason to eat Impossible Burgers.
Then there is low carb - when folks forget alcohol is a carbs …

Oh we haven't forgotten, we just drink spirits with no carbs, and no sugar laden mixers either.

Coeliac. Bloody love Gluten. Gregggs sausage rolls. Cakes. custard slices, proper bread. Lots of nice beer rather than IPA's and shit Lagers. Plus Free from foods are bloody expensive.

But i shit and feel better

Hey ho

When i went to the doctors for always feeling knackered after a few tests it turned out i have a B12 deficiency and panacea anemia.

I know what part of it is (hormone that the french won't prescribe because it's a "male hormone" FFS) but this last week has been a lot worse.

I do need to restart my vitamins etc that I'd stopped (which includes B12) but I stopped them before December, so I don't think the last week is that either - but I do need to get restarted then get checked !!!

I think high protein is silly unless you are full on strength training and managing it properly.

But, a lot of people do not get the 'right' amount of protein per day. It's interesting to see how much an adult 'should' have and then see exactly what you eat and how much actual protein you do get

You're lucky - a few of the coeliacs I know have it come back up rather than go through fast!!

I dont see my brother but my sister tells me that is sometimes how he is but a lot of gut pain also. I really could go out and scoff a steak bake but it would have to be a Friday night and a stay at home weekend

Who is it here who is a patisserie chef in the Savoy. I am sure i read he was Coeliac and Lactose intolerant. Now that is cruel

These sort of rules aren't there for your benefit. They are there for the benefit of people who don't consider their attire when riding !
Kinda like "do not drink" labels on bleach.....

I now feel bad - I read you post, was in town, and bought a custard slice.

Please forgive me!
