Is anyone else on here attemping to get fit? It seems to me that a lot of people are trying to get in shape for various reasons, I thought it was generally girls that were concious about themselves but I've recently discovered several male friends and even my brother are watching what they eat and exercising more (I feel quite bad- me telling my brother he'd put on weight caused him to join a gym).

Anyway, I'd be quite interested to know if anyone on here is already trying to get in shape for summer, and what they're doing about it. I'm doing a lot more exercise (even if it does mean getting up at six and going for a run) and thinking about what I eat as well as cutting down portion sizes. I've signed up to do three miles for Sport Relief, and I'm hoping that after that I've be able to do longer running sessions as they're quite relaxing. I've got two holidays and my school prom in July so I'd like to be looking my best for then, but just generally I'd like to get to a (still healthy) weight that I'm comfortable with, without losing my curves.

[sinister]

I'm already in shape, unfortunately that shape is round:oops:

[Danishgirl]

I ought to try to get fit. I'm not overweight or anything (rather the opposite actually), but I reckon I could do with some more exercise. But the motivation is missing, I'm too lazy. All that I do is "dancing" when I listen to music. I try to use various dance moves, but seriously I can't dance at all I don't think it does much to me...

[Jono]

I'm trying to get a fitty if that counts?

[Emma]

I'm trying to get a fitty if that counts?

No Jono, no it doesn't. I'm alright foodwise becauuse I have really high metabolism, but I should do more excercise. I used to ice-skate, play hockey for my school's team and go to running club, but I do none of that now.

[Ema]

I joined a new gym last week and I love it. Although im quite injured and cant do much at the moment its great and I have my own personal trainer and he's nice . Since Christmas I have just eaten crap and I need to get back into shape plus, Ive seen the most gorgeous dress I want so Ive told myself that if I get back into shape ill buy myself it.

Ive tried to cut out sweets and stuff(given up chocolate for lent) and I keep on getting cravings for it-argh!

I thought Jono said "I want a fifty" as in a £50 note!

[dstrkzn]

I have a fold up walking machine thing, i sometimes walk on it. If i could be bothered id join a gym, but i can't.

I go through fazes of wanting to get fit, but they don't last.

[Serin]

These image conscious times really do sadden me.

[Lucinda]

Nope, it's too cold for exercise.

I eat the healthiest diet of anyone I know (not through choice - fat and junk food don't agree with me - I used to eat chocolate all the time) and I walk for at least an hour most days including some pretty fast walks up big hills when I'm late for lectures. Despite all this, I'm too ill to do any more exercise, so go figure.

My male housemate keeps going on about the calorie, fat and salt content of things, it's getting a bit annoying.

[Bumble_85]

Nope, far too much effort. It's enough trouble remembering to eat meals and go to uni.

[Timsk]

I do it not so much for the self-image, just for the general well-being - it really does help in life... Eating healthily always helps too.

[Geezer7348]

I think I am probably a sterotypical Scot, too keen on eating junk food and exercise as little as possible.

[Timsk]

I've never sampled the delights of a deep-fried battered mars bar... Are they worth the risk of coronary failure?

Can't say I have ever tasted on either!, I tend to have deep fried cheeseburgers in batter though

I think they're an urban myth, I NEVER encountered one single deep fried Mars Bar during the four years I lived in Glasgow.

I could do with a bit of exercise, not to lose weight - I eat very healthily, just to feel a bit more chipper in general.

[Geezer7348]

Looks absolutely repulsive anyway in my opinion.

[Grace]

Oh my word, that has to be one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen. Why would someone eat that?!

[midnight]

Gotta agree with you there Neil. Never tasted a deep fried mars bar and cant say its high on my list of things to do but nothing beats the taste of a deep fried cheeseburger in batter.

[DC]

good god it looks like a bad infection.

Yes.

[Lucinda]

Till I came to uni I'd never heard of chips and cheese or chips and gravy. I was uninitiated into the world of dodgy takeaways. They make me feel sick though, just looking at the kind of stuff my friends manage to eat while drunk.

Whats wrong with chips and cheese? Chips and coronation chicken is good as well.

[Bumble_85]

Chips and mayo. Yum.

[sinister]

Chips cheese and mayo mmmmm

[kiki03]

My friend likes those disgusting mars bar things in batter

They look.. less than yummy though!

Cheesy chips however..

Heavennn
