      Thanks Jaco - on the NHS they'll be free, however, I'm not sure whether 'demanding' treatment is the correct course of action!

        it is not. the system fails if that is the plan.

        find a good doctor that you can trust, be honest, follow through, that's the best you can do

          So after a short discussion I have to provide 'samples' and more bloods.  😞

                Note to self, dropping a 16kg bell during Skogg ladders was not one of the wiser things I have done.

                    Congrats y'all!

                    Haven't made it to the gym in two weeks on account of work. Feel like shit!  Deadline comes and goes today, can't wait to get back in there.

                    Think it, be it.

                      I dropped a 20 in our bedroom the other day.  Luckily, Julie hasn't noticed the black tinged divot in the carpet yet…

                      That 60 must have done some serious damage to the floor.

                          Surprised the 60 didn't go right through.

                              ah yeah head's up Finn, once you stop eating bread your stomach gets used to it and totally fcks itself if you magically start eating it again. Same deal on milk (different process, same fck out). I eat bread once in a blue moon and boy do I pay for it :|.

                                Turns out the body doesn't like poison when it's not used to it 😉

                                Though I never had problems with dairy even after periods where I stopped it.

                                  Started this journey February 10th. As of this morning I have dropped 76lbs and now weigh less than 250. Kinda of crazy what you can accomplish when you put your heart and soul into. MikeC thank you again!

                                      well i had bread because i had pretty serious stomach problems right after waking up (had the flu/shits and wasn´t able to keep anything in me for more than a few minutes!)…needed sth. to stuff my stomach with, so bread was the only thing i could think about that time! think it was because of having a strong cigar the evening before. not used to smoking one and i might took a too strong pull too many so that things kicked in in the morning 😉
                                      feeling way better now...was a weird feeling having bread after almost 6weeks! ^^
