For those not watching the football, have an episode of Murder She Wrote directed by Stanley Kubrick :D
I made this!
Jessica Fletcher visits the Overlook Hotel to write her latest novel. Little did she expect that she would go on a murderous rampage between chapters 2 and 27!
Will she slaughter the child on the tricycle? can her editor decipher her ramblings? All will be revealed in this Stanley Kubrick's classic tv detective show.

Hi b3ta. So I've come up with a nice sounding synth riff for a band I'm in, but I've started to worry: Have I subconsciously stolen it from some late 90's trance tune?
Your challenge then, is to listen to the clip, and let me know of any tunes you know of which it sounds suspiciously similar to.

Try not to paint yourself into a corner
It's just a few chords, relax and do what feels right rather than worrying every step of the way. More than half the pop industry is just ripping off the pachelbel canon anyway.
I mean I wrote a track a few months ago that turned out having the same chords as Aimee Man's 'wise up', but that's her problem not mine. Either way I'm the only one so far that's noticed.

Basically by eating shag all carbs.
Didn't change my calorie intake and I've always worked out. That sounds a bit like Atkins but that diet goes a lot further into Ketosis and the like. The main thing for me was realising the following: Carbs raise insulin levels and insulin puts fat into cells. I keep carbs low (no bread, cereal, pasta, chips, etc) to prevent this happening and the weight is literally falling off me. For two of those five weeks I was injured and didn't get to the gym and the weight loss remained constant.
(, Sun 27 Jun 2010, 11:26, Reply)
Mmm,
interesting. A colleague at work went on a wheat free diet, and the same happened to her.
I have found it very good, that little video. But there are lots of things in it when I said to myself 'well, that can be explained, possibly through evolution and such'. such as the distribution of fat between males and females. And carbs are well know for being bad for you, and wheat free diets tend to work. But if you go wheat (carb) free for too long, your body can reject them when you do eat them again. and when you try and do a carb free diet again, you body goes 'NO WAY!!!' and is harder to do so.
This colleague of mine was basiscally anorexic doing that, now she is overweight again, and finds it hard to shed the pounds long term.
My diet is very cal determined, but I also limit fats and carbs. But dont cut them out completely, believe me. You will still lose weight :-)

Ok
I'm not carb free though. I've just limited them. I don't want to feel like I'm on a diet because people fall of diets. Also the problem with reducing calories is that your body will lower your metabolism when you do and will also raise your insulin sensitivity permanently so you're doubley screwed. This is most likely what happened to your colleague - she cut grain but did she replace the lost calories with protein or fat, I doubt it.
I don't agree that it's well known that carbs are bad for you. I still hear about low-fat more than anything else when it comes to public health although I believe the screw is starting to turn on that one.
I'm glad you have something that works for you, but the evidence is compelling when there are obese people living on bread and coffee that there is more to the equation than calories in vs calories out.

The think with fat (from a colorie perspective)
is that it is harder to burn. Calories are easier, but it you dont burn they turn into fat.
I shall take what this guy says on board, but I will have to research more before I go head on into it :-)
edit: the thing with his compelling evidence, is there is no counter evidence, really. There can be two sides to it also.

As I mentioned below
my diet has not changed but my exercise level has. I am now quite sedentary and have gone from a lifelong lanky git into a tubby bastard.
Stephen Fry recently lost loads of weight by simply putting an audio book onto his mp3 player and going out for long walks.

There's more to it than diet and exercise.
Having constantly high blood sugar will keep your insulin levels elevated which will eventually render you insulin resistant, or, will knacker your pancreas.
That's how people get Type II diabetes.
EDIT: I'm sure if Stephen Fry is putting effort into going for long walks he has probably altered his diet too. Another problem with calorie restricted diets is that you lose weight in the ratio of 60/40 fat/muscle but because they raise your insulin sensitivity you become more likely to put the weight back on. It has been found that the weight usually goes back on 80/20 fat/muscle. This is why people yo-yo diet.

Everybodys different
I will admit i made it to tubby bastard levels a couple of years ago by eating and drinking too much shit.
My ideal weight when i was 19 was 9 1/2 stone at 5'5"
I trained day in day out and was built like a proverbial (small) shithouse due to doing karate, gymanastics, football, rugby, you name it i've probably put my hand to it.
After starting working in offices i gradually started not exercising and putting it all into my job.
I got married at 13 stone when i was 25. I have now found that when i want to do it, i can drop my weight between 10-12 stone just by training and eating a varied diet, no cutting anything out, or limiting myself, but just by being generally healthy, or unhealty. Just think about ricky hatton. Does he lose all that weight and chunk by not training and just dieting. i hope not. training is what you need to do, and have a balanced diet.
Flame me all you like, but i'm healthy, fit, can still enjoy my food without having to listen to people who consider themselves experts.

Hi, me again,
i have come to the conclusion that this is kinda a theistic approach to dieting. Where as it may work (for you) and calories work for others (me) it still sounds like slimming world or many other diets patched together. I did not find any of these lectures rational. It is a very 'point finger at facts that confirm my belief.' However, I am willing to do further research into it. If it has been accepted by any others scientists, and if there has been any studies providing evidence to its effectiveness. This really needs to be scientifically tested. And yes, I know I jumped on the calorie band wagon, but I have looked into it very deeply.
Any who, lets catch up in a few months time and see how we are both doing, I may be wrong, and you may be spot on :-)
Good luck, off for a sunbathe...
