FLESHLIGHT ORIGINAL

*Recommended for well endowed and uncircumcised men.

The original Fleshlight is untextured (it’s completely smooth on the inside) and has a 3/4″ inner diameter. This insert is ideal for well endowed men and uncircumcised men. If, in the past, you have gone a bit overboard during masturbation or if you use a tight grip your penis may be a bit desensititized. The original Fleshlight is a great way to regain some of that sensitivity back in your penis, something every man can appreciate. The original Fleshlight can be a bit of a lube hog, so make sure you keep your lube handy. One really nice thing about this insert is that it’s very easy to hold back your orgasms. If you want to have a nice long self love session this is a great insert to use. Every man is different and you may find yourself in love with this insert especially if you are well hung or uncircumcised.
FLESHLIGHT STAMINA TRAINING UNIT (STU) * Recommended to improve stamina

As the name implies the STU was developed to help you last longer when you are with an actual woman, it is designed to mimic the sensations of actual intercourse with the goal to extend your sexual stamina. In my opinion the STU is the finest of the Fleshlights. The STU is pretty intense, the little nubs that line the interior really do a good job of massaging and caressing your shaft as you slide inside. Where the STU really shines is when you can no longer hold back any longer and finally orgasm. When you are about to cum your penis swells and as it swells the nubs rub and caress your head more making the experience even more intense. Having an orgasm in the STU will blow your mind, it’s really amazing how intense it is. When you first start a sesssion with the STU it may not seem all that exciting but give it time, it gets better and better with each stroke.

Each Fleshlight has it’s own sweet spot as far as the lube is concerned. For the STU try not to use too much, with too much lube you lose some of the sensation of the little nubs on your shaft. You want enough to be able to slide freely but you want to nubs to have a bit of grip on you as well.

I personally think if you are going to buy one Fleshlight, this is the one to get. The experience is increditbly pleasurable, it will help you last longer which gives you more confidence when you are with that special lady in your life.

FLESHLIGHT SUPER TIGHT *Recommended for smaller penises

The Super Tight Fleshlight falls between the Original Fleshlight and the Ultra Tight Fleslhight in terms of tightness. The canal on the Super Tight is 1/2″ whereas the Original Fleshlight is 3/4″ and the Ultra Tight Fleshlight is 1/4″. This 1/2″ diameter is the same as the textured units such as the Speed Bump and the Super Ribbed but here the insert is silky smooth on the inside.

This is recommended to anyone who wants a nice tight feeling but feels that the Ultra Tight would be a bit too constricting. This is also good for those who are a bit on the smaller side, especially in girth, as you will be able to feel the soft fleshy material squeezing down on your penis bringing you to new levels of pleasure. Good one to throw in a “3 for 2″ deal.

ULTRA TIGHT FLESHLIGHT * Recommended for small penises

The Ultra Tight Fleshlight’s name doesn’t lie, this one is as tight as they come. The canal’s diameter is a tiny quarter inch, about the size of a pencil. Have no fear though, even men with above average sized penises will have no rouble using this insert due to the super soft and stretchy material (The same material all Fleshlights are made out of.) This insert is ideal for men below average size, especially girth, or for those men who just likes the sensation of ultra tight penetration.

One bad thing about the Ultra Tight is it sucks up lube like no tomorrow. Keep your bottle handy when you are doing a session with your Ultra Tight, you are going to need it.

THE WONDER WAVE FLESHLIGHT * Recommended for long masturbations

The Wonder Wave was the first textured Fleshlight that ILF brought to the market and it has been a smashing sucess. The Wonder Wave Fleshlight’s canal is lined with lots of ridges which are spaced approximately half inch apart. The Wonder Wave is less intense than some of the other textured inserts such as the Speed Bump and the Super Ribbed. The Wonder Wave was made to closely mimic the inside of a woman’s vagina.

One good thing about the WOnder Wave is that it’s easier to last longer, so if you are in the mood for a prolonged masturbation session then the Wonder Wave is an excellent choice.

SPEED BUMP FLESHLIGHT *Recommended for all

The Speed Bump Fleshlight is lined with dozens of closely spaced little bumps that fill the 1/2″ wide inner canal. Due to the height of the bumps this is the tightest os the textured inserts. The Speed Bump may be the most intense of the Fleshlight inserts; some find it hard to last more than a few minuts with the Speed Bump before they have yet another mind blowing orgasm. The Speed Bump isn’t too bad on lube. You want to make sure you’re used enough and using too much kills the sensation of all those little bumps caressing your penis.

SUPER RIBBED FLESHLIGHT *Recommended for all

The Super Ribbed Fleshlight is like Wonder Wave only much more intense. Whereas the Wonder Wave has ridges spaced about half an ince apart, the Super Ribbed packs the ridges in leaving barely any room between them, making this one of the most intense inserts you can buy.

The sensation of the Super Ribbed can make it hard to last long because it is constantly stimulating you. Like Wonder Wave, the Super Ribbed works best with less suction (remove the cap for minimal suction.) You want to make sure you use enough lube with this one because if you don’t you may find this amount of stimulation a bit too much.

If you make this your one and only Fleshlight then you are going to be in for some intense fun everytime you break out your Fleshlight (which will be often, trust me.)

And there is no magic pill that will shrink your stomach fat.

On a daily basis, we are being bombarded with gimmicks and misleading ads boasting that the best way to burn fat is to simply DO more cardio or eat no carbohydrate or whatever.

No wonder why so many people do not how to lose body fat.

Life should be simpler, and to lose body fat, it’s all about keeping it simple.

Here are 6 simple ways on how to lose body fat and keep it off -

1) Always Exercise 20 Minutes a Day

Always find an opportunity to exercise.

Try to exercise at least 20 minutes a day, even if it’s a gentle walk.

It’s far better than doing nothing at all.

Exercise improves muscle strength, bone health, flexibility and balance.

Best yet, start a routine of going to the gym, 3 times a week and exercise an hour.

And avoid the long boring cardios and look at high intensity exercise like Turbulence Training Routine that combines strength training and interval training.

Higher intensity exercises have a far greater impact on your metabolism during and after a workout.

If you don’t like the gym, the best way to begin a resistance training program is to use your own bodyweight.

All is needed is just a small space and a few minutes of your time.

Movements such as squats, lunges and assisted push ups are great examples of effective bodyweight exercises that any Busy person can do.

Establishing a place to begin builds confidence, boosts energy levels and in turn increases metabolism.

2) Eat More

Don’t ever think, ‘I have to eat less to lose weight’.

What you should say to yourself is – ‘I’m going to move more and I’m going to eat well’

Look at having six healthy mini meals a day.

The mini meals should consist of of a mix of protein and fiber rich complex carbohydrates.

The benefit of including protein and fiber is to give you a feeling of being satisfactorily full, and prevent any cravings.

3) Never Eat More Than You Feel

Before you have something to eat, ask yourself –

‘Do I really feel like it? And is the taste really good enough to be worth the calories?’

Always stick to 1 plate serving.

And never eat ordinary food.

If you have the choice of between homemade ice cream and a 4 liter ice cream container – which one will you say ‘yes’ to?

The quality homemade ice cream – of course!

4) Don’t Try, Make The Time And Make It Work

The word ‘try’ should not be in your vocabulary.

It’s easy street to ‘Giving Up’.

There’s no such thing as “trying” to do something!

If you are strap for time – make time to exercise before work.

Even if you have to set the alarm one hour earlier to get up — just ‘do it’

Everyone has time to work out – all you have to do is get up before the day starts!

5) Never Let a ‘Slip Up’ Bother You

Last Sunday, My wife and I ate out.

Both of us had burger with chips, and for dessert, Devonshire Scones topped with whipped cream and jam — yum.

Fact is, we wouldn’t have that at home, but we allow ourselves to do that now and again.

We got up this morning, and went back to our normal routine of eating well and exercising.

Cutting out everything is just not living life!

And there’s nothing more boring than steamed chicken and vegies.

Who wants to eat like that?

I don’t.

6) Finding A Friend is the #1 Key to Success

Get a friend to exercise with you.

Social support is probably one of the missing weight loss ingredients that people don’t realize .

A weight loss partner is to encourage you, check up on you, motivate you, keep you in line, and keep you on track.

You need to be accountable to these people — and you need to state your goals to these people.

It is a fantastic network to encourage and support each other.

Hanging around the right people will help you lose body fat.

There you have it, 6 tips on how to lose body fat effectively.

Remember, if you keep it simple and enjoyable — you’ll make it happen.

Now this is how to lose body fat.

There is no panacea for weight loss, but one safe, effective tool in your healthy living arsenal is a dietary supplement known as hoodia gordonii. This plant grows naturally in the desert, and scientists have recently discovered that it contains a unique molecule called P57AS3 whose chemical properties can help you lose weight safely and effectively.

A lot of diet supplements that are on the market today are made synthetically by chemicals in a lab. These synthetic chemicals are not the best choice for your body. Sometimes loosing weight in the short term can lead to long term health problems. The weight loss may not be worth the side effects of unnatural supplements. One of these synthetic supplements was Ephedra. Ephedra is now banned because of its negative health effects. It is best to go with a natural supplement.

Hoodia is completely natural as opposed to the tablets, potions, and other supplements which have been created by commercial manufacturers. It comes from the hoodia plant itself rather than being made in a lab. Many leading scientists, nutritionists, and other health professionals have come out in favor of it because of its safety and efficacy.

Hoodia works to help you lose weight by suppressing your appetite. A compound called P57AS3 works with your brain to stop unwanted hunger pains. It interacts with your hypothalamus, which is the area of your brain that controls hunger, preventing the release of neurotransmitters that stimulate the appetite. Unlike many other dietary aids, this compound does not unsafely “rev up” your metabolism, so it does not expose your body – especially your internal organs – to the risks associated with the overheating caused by a metabolism that is too fast.

Don’t forget that weight loss doesn’t happen by magic, and make certain that you consult with a doctor prior to the use of any supplements. The basics of a balanced diet and a regular exercise routine are imperative for a safe, and healthy, weight loss plan that is sustainable over the long term. Hoodia, because it is all-natural, can be an efficient added tool in putting you on the proper path to safe and responsible weight loss by aiding in the suppression of hunger pangs, adding health and control over your body.

Many people try many of these different weight loss programs and soon come to realize that they don\’t always work as well as advertised. The problem lies in the fact that many people don\’t understand that their body has a built in fat burner, it\’s just a matter of tapping into its power to start losing that weight.

This is why the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet works so well. It works by increasing your body\’s metabolism, which is the rate at which you burn calories. By understanding how your body uses calories as its energy source gives you everything you need to know to see why this diet works so well.

All of your energy needs are met by the food you eat. Protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins and minerals, and fiber all play a role in how your body functions. All these nutrients are used by the body for different tasks but the most important thing to consider if you are overweight is how they affect your metabolism. The nutrient content of food is vital for everyone and the higher the nutrient value of the food you eat the better your body will respond.

This is where many diets fail because they work by cutting out something your body needs. There are no carb diets, low calories diets, high protein diets, low protein diets, and all sorts of other combinations but when you cut or limit one of these nutrients you starve your body of something it needs. In fact one of the worst things you can do when trying to lose weight is cut too many calories from your diet because they are the fuel that runs your internal engine. When the body is starved for energy it slows its metabolism and holds onto its fat stores as it goes into surviving starvation mode.

The Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet helps you avoid this by showing you which foods to eat, in what amounts, and even what times of the day are best for eating certain foods to give your body the nutrients it needs to boost your metabolism and start burning fat. This diet program allows you to tap into your own internal fat burning engine without starving yourself for optimal fat burning success.

1. Your favourite jeans does not fit anymore. You can’t even zip it up.

2. Busy body relatives think you are pregnant. But you are not.

3. Your doctor tsk tsks at your weight.

4. The dresses you love would look amazing on you only if you lose ten pounds.

The list goes on.

So you want to lose weight but dieting sounds expensive.

Diet bars, diet shakes and meal replacement soups and plans don’t come cheap. Then there are the vitamin supplements to ensure you stay healthy even as you drop the pounds.

Many people have lost weight on the atkins diet or diets high in protein but low in fat, but protein rich food like meat and fish are very expensive compared to carbs like potatos, rice and bread. If you replace carbs with protein, or at least eat enough protein to fill your stomach, you would end up spending far more than if you were to live on your usual fare.

One quick way to lose weight is to use diet pills. These pills help you lose weight by boosting your metabolic rate, making you feel full or buy blocking your body’s absorption of carbohydrates or fat. Unfortunately, these miracle pills, herbal or otherwise are expensive.

So how can you lose weight if you are broke?

Just think out of the box.

To lose weight, you need to burn more calories than you consume, or consume fewer calories than you burn.

If you eat less of whatever you are eating now, you will lose weight.

No need for fancy aids, though they may speed up the process.

What you do need is plenty of discipline.

1. Drink plenty of water before your meals to fill your stomach before you even eat. 2. Stop eating when you are 80% full. 3. Don’t upsize your meals no matter how much the fast food people might tempt you. Save those few cents and lower your calorie intake. 4. Drink water instead of cola or soda. You will save money as well as calories.

Your everyday clothing can often get a bit boring. After all, the clothes you wear when you go out to work or school are often designed to help you blend in to the mainstream. As a result, your everyday wardrobe often lacks any real excitement or embellishment. If you are looking for a way to create some excitement in your clothing, fantasy clothing provides you with the perfect way to inject some creativity and imagination into your standard attire. Along with your standard everyday clothing, and sometimes in place of it, fantasy clothing has taken on an interesting and growing niche as more and more people use fantasy clothing to draw attention and interest to their own appearance.
One thing that is great about fantasy clothing is that you can pick and choose from styles suites to a variety of social classes and cultures. Men’s fantasy clothing includes styles of dress commonly worn by lords, warriors and knights. Women’s fantasy clothing includes the lady court and daily wear of Medieval times, as well as the peasant and wench. Whatever you want to dress up for, you will find some fantasy clothing for your tastes.

Fantasy clothing throughout the ages

Wearing fantasy clothing is not just a recent phenomenon. In pre-modern times, ancient peoples would wear fantasy clothing influenced by the natural environment: fangs, ivory earrings, rings, talons necklaces, feathers, masks, and tattoo or body paint were common. As a general rule, the more important you were, the more ornaments you would adorn yourself with. In the middle ages, Europeans weren’t the only men in the world who loved to go this way. If the fantasy genre is inspired by the European medieval history, then there were the Turk and Byzantine people and Chinese along with the Japanese who followed suit.

The Range of Fantasy Clothing

Fantasy clothing comes in a wide array of wigs, hats, masks, costumes, props, decorations, make-up and accessories for any fantasy setting. For a long time, such dress has been the choice of individuals, professionals, non-profit organizations and corporations during certain holidays and for other special events. These outfits are brought out for parties and special events, trade shows and fundraisers, theatrical, television and movie productions.

Common Fantasy Clothing Options

Deluxe fantasy costumes may include such fantasy clothing as that designed for angels, vampires or genies. Angel costumes are popular fantasy clothing options that feature full-length gowns, wire supported lace and organza wings, with a gray rose halo. In some fantasy dress, lace and organza have been frayed and tattered through a special process. Batavia costumes contain a full-length velvet and shimmer-satin robe with attached mesh cape, fingerless gloves, and jeweled tulle bat choker. Vampire costumes often feature a velvet vest with attached shirt sleeves and scarf collar. It also comes with a full length lined satin cape with white gloves and medallion on ribbon. A genie costume could contain gold trimmed glimmer vests with organza sleeves and a hat with a veil. Gothic costumes are full of lace trimmed panne and satin gowns.

Fantasy clothing the kids will love

Kids love dressing up in fantasy clothing. After all, fantasy clothing is all about fun, imagination, and creativity – things that are always great qualities for children. One thing that boys and girls of all ages love dressing up as is superheroes. It is not surprising that one of the most popular fantasy clothing outfits for kids is Batman. However, adults also may enjoy the thought of dressing in this type of fantasy clothing. Adult Batman fantasy clothing is also available, and comes with a headpiece with attached cape, muscle chest jumpsuit with attached boot tops and vinyl belt. Also popular with kids and adults alike, Elvis fantasy costumes include jeweled eagle high collared shirt trimmed with gold studs. These also feature satin-lined sequin scarves, detachable capes with sequin lining, belt with gold glitter eagle crest, and flared pants with red sequin insets. The whole outfit is trimmed with pretend bullion studs and is an officially licensed Elvis costume.

Modern Prospects of Fantasy Clothing

Each one of us is familiar with the standard clothing in developed nations; however in some parts of the world, history seems to be frozen in the bygone eras. But barring these obscure regions, now almost the entire globe is in the same league. Modern sci-fi and fantasy films are depicting the same fantasy glory and a future that is certainly going to look a lot different. These depictions in fantasy genres have caused a spike in interest in fantasy clothing.

These ideas mean we may start to see Medieval fantasy attire combine with future ideas and concepts in fantasy clothing. The coming age will witness cybernetic arms, strange clothes, chips and cables everywhere. There is an absolute freedom to create clothing of any sort, and as such, those interested in fantasy clothing will begin to incorporate their own concepts into their attire.

Knowledge can give you a real advantage. To make sure you’re fully informed about fast or slow, keep reading.

To each her own; and that applies to what a woman wants in bed — either a fast thrust or the slow, smooth kind. However, it seems that most women prefer the sensual approach rather than the pound-pound-pounding away.

A slow, smooth approach will enable you and your partner to employ your senses and experience all the bliss related to the sexual experience. Feel her soft skin, see her lovely face, hear her moans, taste her mouth, and smell the scent of her body.
True, most films favor and highlight the fast and hard thrusting. But that’s just on film, silly! That’s the way it’s supposed to look — quickly and vigorously. How else can they sustain your interest if they otherwise took the slow road? It’d be rather boring, wouldn’t it? So, in order to get that wild and exciting impression, the porn stars are instructed to take the fast road. That’s why men have created the illusion that this is just the way it is supposed to be done. Well, sorry to disappoint.

Besides there are advantages to the slow approach. One is that you get to explore her body more. It’s not just her breasts and her twat that matters. Have you tried licking her ears, touching her nape or the back of her knees, or massaging her foot? Well, you should. These are highly erogenous areas of the woman’s body’ and it’d just be too selfish of you if you don’t provide her the pleasure.

Women are turned on with kissing, caressing, licking (slurping even). It just sends her to the edge as you masterfully rein her back. This only makes her even hornier! She’ll want you more and more if you tease her; building up the aching need inside her. Don’t you just love hearing her moan and feel the tingling down her spine?

Build up her longing with romantic nuances like flickering candles, rose petals, fresh sheets, sweet music, kinky underwear or sex toy. This whole romantic package is important for her, so don’t you try to shortchange her. Try out various foreplay techniques first before taking the slow plunge. Intense and increased desire only makes way for numerous orgasms.

A slow approach also conserves your energy for that surging crescendo. If you thrust harder and deeper, you are in a rush to get there. You’re only forcing it; and it’s not as satisfying as it should have been otherwise. It could also give your honey a stiff neck or sore back, for that matter. Several seconds of frenzy rewarded by a quick orgasm is rather limiting. Why not extend your pleasure even more?

Learn how to control your urges. Build up her longing with slow, deliberate thrusts, pausing curtly, and constricting your inner muscles. Touching fosters a stronger connection; the more you are familiar with each other’s bodies, the more intimate your sexual encounters would be.

Every sexual experience means so much for a woman. So, try to approach your love-making with sincerity, confidence, and respect. You can show her this by making her feel special and by considering her needs. She may not say it out loud, but she needs more than a hard penis inside her. She needs more than that, and you should know better.

Getting the proper exercise is always a good thing to put into your weekly routine. Exercise can be used to relieve stress, lose weight, or build muscle just for a few examples.

First way- be creative- use your mind and use a little bit of think before you making sex. Think about how you and your partner will produce the maximum enjoy in the sex. Sex without using mind makes us to be like animals, and everybody knows that sex is much more than that.

Second way- discuss with your partner- when you discuss before and after the sex, you and your partner show that you taking care about your sex life, you use thinking in your sex life, and that’s what will do not make you as sex robot.
Third way —giving- something that robots and machine that doesn’t have is giving. Giving is what make us, the human, unique. You will give, and you will get back, that’s how it works. You can give everything you think will be helpful to your sex life. You will invest in good foreplay and you will get a good sex after that, and so on.

After overcoming my weight problem after spending 7 and a half years of my life yo-yo dieting, I thought it would be fun to write down on paper the things I struggled with most. These 10 factors are the ones that more likely than not, caused me to ruin my diet.

1. EATING SMALLER MEALS

This was extremely difficult for me. I like to feel content and full after a meal. I found I could only do this if I was really busy. However, if I had nothing else to do after finishing my diet meal, I would get irresistible cravings to splurge, and more often than not I did in a big way!

2. EATING DISGUSTING FOOD

I found this the most difficult. Not only did I have to give up my favourite foods, I had to eat the most blend and tasteless food imaginable. Even if a diet did sound good to start with (the high fat diet) the lack of variety soon made me hate those foods. I still cringe thinking about how I used to force myself to eat tuna in spring water and egg whites. After a while I was dry reaching every time I put them in my mouth! To solve this problem, I would take a mouthful of tuna, then take a mouthful of water and drink it down! Yuck! After having this meal for lunch at work, I would get home and eat half a box of Nutri-Grain cereal with nearly a litre of milk!

3. CUTTING CARBOHYDRATES

This drove me crazy! Whenever I did this I felt so drained and weak. I was always tired. I found it hard to string more than a few days of consistent dieting together without pigging out on cereal, pasta, juice and sandwiches. What I realize now is that whatever I wasnt allowed to have, thats what I craved.

4. CONSUMING LESS FOOD AT NIGHT

I dont like to admit it, but one of my favourite things is to eat a large, almost challenging-to-finish meal for dinner that will leave me stuffed. I dont know why but I love the feeling. Maybe I like the challenge and almost like to show off how much food I can eat. Also, night time is when I am unwinding and I would like to have a snack or two while relaxing and watching T.V before going to bed. Many diets actually want you to eat very little from 5pm onwards and not eat for 3 hours before going to bed. I obviously struggled with this one. My most common time for pigging out and ruining my diet was (and still is) at night time.

5. EATING A TON OF PROTEIN

I found this the hardest in my day to day activities. Some diets wont let you even have an apple without having a piece of protein with it. I couldnt stand to eat so much meat, blend meat at that because it had to be lean. Do you know hard it is to get a lean piece of meat when you are out and about? I would have to carry tins of tuna with me because this was the only portable meat. I couldnt always leave the house because I had to eat protein every 2-3 hours! (I know thats a bit extreme but I felt like that some times!) This is where supplement companies must be loving it, because the most portable source of protein is, protein powder, which leads me to my next point

6. EXPENSIVE SUPPLEMENTS

I personally found that the most restricting diets were the ones that recommended that you use supplements to make the diet easier. Maybe they made the diet so hard that you had no choice but to buy their supplements? I dont know. All I know is many of those supplements (predominantly Meal Replacement Powders) were disgusting and extremely expensive. I would fork out over a $100 for a few weeks supply. What I find amusing is that they also say that you should follow their diet for life (I wonder why?!…$$) Besides how can a powdered mix be more healthy than natural from the ground real food?

7. DIETS THAT CUT OUT AN ENTIRE FOOD GROUP

These diets were the hardest ones to follow. Whether it was a no fat diet, a no protein diet (all fruit, or soup diets) or a no carbohydrate diet I couldnt stand the lack of freedom. I personally found the no carb diet the hardest, I felt like a zombie and I was talking as slow as Rocky Balboa! Any diet that cuts out a whole macronutrient (whether be protein, carbs or fat) was just way to demanding for me.

8. EATING LOW FAT

Many of the high protein diets also recommend that you keep your fat intake to a minimum (some allow us to have a tablespoon of flaxseed oil a day, Hooray!) This is what made high protein diets unbearable for me. Not only did we have to eat a ton of it, it had to be as lean as possible. Only the egg white, grilled chicken, no fat, nothing on it, or tuna in spring water drained. Yuck! If I was lucky some diets would even grant me the luxury of no fat, watery skim milk! No fat = no taste = no chance for me to stick to it

9. NO FREEDOM OR FLEXIBILITY

This drove me crazy. Most, wait actually all diets had an authorised food list. If a food you wanted to eat wasnt on the list, you simply couldnt eat it. Problem was the authorised list normally contained no more than 10-20 foods, that was it! Typically it was: chicken, tuna, egg whites, fish, protein powder and oatmeal, brown rice, whole-wheat pasta and some allowed whole-wheat bread sparingly, along with plenty of vegetables.

What if I was away from my house for more than 2 hours, where was I going to cook this food? Why cant I just have a chicken burger at McDonalds? Cant I just have a bottle of Orange Juice at the petrol station? No, No, No if its not on the authorised list you cant eat it!

These damn authorised lists also stopped me from dining out altogether…so my girlfriend suffered. At first I tried to dine out and stick to the authorised list, but I would spend half an hour explaining to the waiter what I wanted. Not only this hassle but the temptation of delicious food all around me made me to simply give up dining full stop.

This drove me crazy because I love dining out. Taking people you care about out for a special night and delicious food. Depriving myself of this right was probably one of the hardest things to cope with. This lack of flexibility with the diet caused me to pig out on so much junk food (I dont even want to think about how much money I have given to ol Colonel Sanders) I think subconsciously I might also pig out because I am a bit head strong and rebellious. (Ill show you for not allowing me to eat my favourite foods!)

And last, but definitely not least

10. NOT BEING ALLOWED TO OVER-INDULGE OCCASIONALLY

I have a ridiculously large appetite. I love to eat until Im stuffed and feel completely satisfied. I almost show off with how much I can eat sometimes (I know that sounds bad but I am proud of how much I can put away!)

All diets were a huge culture shock to me because of how little I was allowed to eat. I probably could have stuck to them if they just let me let my hair down occasionally and indulge a little. Many didnt allow any leeway though. So the pressure of depriving myself of overeating just kept building up and building up until it became unbearable. Then guess what happened. Thats right I OVER ATE and in a big way. At first I felt good about it, but then felt really depressed because I had done the wrong thing by the diet I was following.

I honestly didnt and to this day still dont see the harm in pigging out every now and then. If you stick to your diet and train hard, a large pizza to yourself or a visit to an all you can eat buffet once or twice a week will definitely not hurt your progress, in actual fact I believe it helps you. I believe it actually speeds up weight loss (Ill go more in-depth in another article) but more importantly it helps keep you sane, and keeps cravings down, which enables you to be more consistent for a longer period of time.
