Yes, but You'll not like it. Salad. you know the big leaves from a cos lettuce. Wrap your filling in the large outer leaves, make them like little parcels. (think Doma Stuffed vine leaf) Cos or Romaine work well, and have so few calories you could eat three times as much filling for the same calories as a Boring sandwich.Bread is my vice, it's always wholemeal or seedy, is there another sandwich-outer that could be more helpful to weight loss?

Have you tried wholemeal pita? I find it nicer and more versatile, anyway.

Thanks for the advice guys. I still drink far too much so that's an easy one to cut out/down. Watch this space 
The NHS website is very good on lots of stuff, including this, and people should use it more often. http://www.nhs.uk/LiveWell/loseweight/Pages/Loseweighthome.aspx

I know what I should do, it's doing it that I find the hard bit...

Some of the pages are, some aren't. It's a bit contradictory in places.
Have a look in health and fitness for many threads on this where we all go over the same arguments as to what's best for you to eat
. I obviously rise above it all and don't make things worse 
.Loads of good advice here already. Cut the junk, you basically know what's not healthy. You need to change what you eat if you want to change your physical make up.

If you are exercising hard eg running or cycling regularly for a reasonable length of time, you need carbs. So don't cut them out. Wholemeal bread is one source.

I've been cycling 100+ miles each week for years and have lost no weight, despite being several stone overweight! I'm clearly consuming too many calories.
Most people agree that the secret to weight loss is something like 80% diet, 20% exercise.

he surely can't see his penis, or even reach it easily. Funny that the shorts are actually quite baggy in the leg! At least he likes cycling and not Darts, so there is some hope for him
