Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: on January 08, 2005, 03:35:17 pm
I'm 5' 9" and used to be 16 stones, although i eventuall (with exercise and dieting) got down to 13 stone 4 lb, which I am now.

I put my weight gain down to a present on my 13th birthday, which was a big carton of chocolate, which must have contained about 100 bars, including Double Deckers, Lion Bars, Cabanas and everything.  My Mum told me to 'let them last me', but the young Bounty ate them all in about two weeks.  Does anyone have any similar stories of excessive chocolate consumption?

I feel podged just thinking about it.

I wouldn't go quite as far as a porker.

Having a girlfriend up the road rather than in Finland is helping too.

Why. Is she cooking for you?
Title: Reason I put on weight

Yes, and she's a good cook.  However I was referring to our frequent and athletic love-making.  Twice last night, total 1hr 20 minutes not including foreplay.

Too much information?

1 hr 40 mins not including foreplay sounds a bit hard labour to me, even for two rounds.


Bounty, didn't anyone tell you it isn't polite to tell tales out of the bedroom???

I said 1 hr 20 minutes.  1hr 40mins would have been a bit much.  No I had no idea it was rude to speak of bedroom things.  it's not like I have gone into any detail, then you might have a point.

An 1hr and 20 mins does seem a bit long...somewhere in between is nice.

But that was over two times.  She didn't complain I assure you.

After that length of time it probably felt like you were using a grater ...Why do men think that the longer it goes on the better it is?

I don't think that.  My girlfriend likes it quick sometimes and other times she likes a marathon.  It just depends on how satiated she is.

That's the problem with buying in bulk - it's supposed to save you money, but all that happens is you eat twice as much in the same space of time!


I've lost a pound since New Year's Day, but have started my diet in earnest this week so I'm hoping for a couple more by Saturday.

Good luck with the diet Smurfboy.  Thanks Choccy Button - I like to think so.

Choccy Button, can you please change your yucky Avatar.  Spiders give me the creeps.

The diet started today....had a bit of a choc binge yesterday! It was nice though!


Breakfast was cornflakes, lunch was a banana, an apple and a nectarine and dinner tonight will be soup follewed by a mullerlight yogurt.

You won't survive on that for very long - sounds fairly drastic but good luck anyway!  I've lost four pounds since new year.

I'll let you know how I get on. After the soup and yogurt I was very full up. It was tomato soup and toffee yogurt

Sorry about my avatar...don't know how I became a spider...as last time I was a smiling face with my tongue sticking out!!! Must be an age thing.  I've nearly finished all the chocolate in our house...ate my daughter's chocolate money last night that Father Christmas gave her...I'm sure she won't complain as she's only a toddler!  I'm thinking about going to Weightwatchers but have to eat all the naughty things first.

Yes, that's lovely except you look more like a fox cub.  Unless you meant something else!

I don't know what you are possible talking about... By the way...how does my chocometer get the chunks filled in...if anyone knows what I'm talking about?
Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: chocolate chick on January 12, 2005, 12:59:17 pm
You need to rate the bars chocolate button.
Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: on January 12, 2005, 01:19:53 pm

What Choc Chick was trying to say, is that you need to start voting on the chocolate bars in the chocolate section of the website.


I'll fill in your chunks any day

Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: smurfboy on January 12, 2005, 01:29:42 pm
It takes forever - I've rated tons of bars and have still only got one square.
Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: Chocolate Button on January 12, 2005, 01:37:27 pm
I'd better get rating then as I'd like to have at least one chunk filled in.  And thanks for the offer Bounty but looks like you've still go some chunks to fill in of your own!!

 I stand corrected he he

Post by: goldencup on January 12, 2005, 01:48:05 pm
It took me at least an hour of solid voting to get my three chunks -that's without cheating and voting for bars I'd never tried!
Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: chocolate chick on January 12, 2005, 03:06:46 pm
it does take a while to build up the votes. bit at a time is the best way I think.
Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: on January 12, 2005, 03:22:47 pm
I'm still on three chunks and struggling.  There's quite a few in M&S and Thorntons that i have to sample and vote on.

Post by: Chocolate Button on January 12, 2005, 03:27:15 pm
I've done one so far and that was an effort...!!!  I suppose this is the point of the website though!!  How come all your memberships say that you joined either on 19 or 20 September?  Did Chocadmin change everything then?
Title: Reason I put on weight
Post by: on January 12, 2005, 03:41:58 pm
Yes, the Forum was relaunched on Sept 19th.  The old Forum was being abused and Chris needed to use a format that could be controlled more effectively.  The rest of the site is the same though.

Did you have a chunk removed for bad behaviour?
