I bought one online hour or so ago just gotta wait for it to be delivered now, they do seem to be exactly what I need to strengthen my back. Just gotta keep it away from my cat

Anyone got any experience with the physio balls you can buy? those big inflatable balls you balance on to exercise? Any opinions? I'm considering buying the Gymnic Physio Roll Plus 'peanut' shaped ball but wont if its just another fad.

I was born with Spina Bifida which basically means no balance at all, very limited sensation from the knee down, basically almost paralysed from the knee down, cant move my feet at all. When I walk I mainly get pain in my hips, i'm almost certain its made worse by my weight and my advancing age no doubt cos I used to walk everywhere when I was in College. They have a GP referral scheme here where they send you to a gym to be trained by a personal trainer for next to no cost, i've been asked to be sent on it 3 times it's like talking to the wall.

According to Google 3 stone is 3 stone = 19.0508795 kilograms:tong: always forget that people outside of the UK have no idea what stones is. My movement is not great but it could be worse, i'm not in a wheelchair, i'm able to walk about (although I find that pretty painful after 10 mins or so, probably made worse by the weight), I never had any problems using any of the cardio equipment at the gym except for the treadmill due to total lack of balance. Its annoying because I know if I went to the gym for around 90 mins or so 3-5 times a week, which I am more than willing to do, I would lose it in no time, they just all insist on you signing a contract so they get there money whether you go or not. which from past experience is a nightmare to get out of. I would love to be able to just get up and go walking of an evening for an hour or so, but its very uncomfortable bit of a vicious circle.

thats the big thing with me, I havent done any kind of exercise for probably 3 years. Which I am more than aware will have a major effect on any weight loss..or not in my case. I did used to go to the gym 3-4 times a week and I loved it and have proabably never been in better shape in my life than I wa then, but I just cant afford it these days, nor do I want to get stuck in a contract. I'm disabled and carrying excess weight, at my guess probably around 3 stone, has quite a serious effect on my mobility i'm hoping somewhere along the line to be referred to a physio where I can get at least some kind of physical exercise.

That sounds great I stopped myself last minute ordering Pizza last night, havent eaten one for weeks, big thing for me I would usually eat the equivalent of one a week. Not had pizza, chips/fries for over a month and havent lost any weight whatsoever Seeing a Dietician next week, starting to think it will be a waste of time and he/she is just going to give me a sheet printed out from the internet

I'm actually in disbelief and cant work out why Swansea lent Dobbie to Blackpool, he scored again last night and set up every goal of the hatrick. I know he fell out with the manager here, must have been one hell of a falling out. Looking forward now to the Cardiff game tonight, think its pretty much a foregone conclusion but you never know.

Wormwood scrubs & then Derren Brown investigates

I'm hoping now for a Blackpooll vs Cardiff play off final and for Dobbie (on loan from Swansea) to score the winner and knock Cardiff out Why we lent out a striker who has been scoring for fun to a playoff rival whilst we couldnt score at all is beyond me.

That wouldnt bother them though, their future literally relies on them going up, they need the money to clear serious debts rumoured to be around 30 million. If they dont go up they are a

Leicester wont beat Cardiff on Wednesday, cant believe i'm saying it but they have a really good chance of going up this year considering the other teams in the playoffs who essentially are not that good, the only team that would concern me would be Forest, but on a one big game basis, neutral ground they are more than beatable.

Well Leicester were poor, Cardiff were lucky (as usual). Lets hope Chelsea can stuff Wigan and make Roberto Martinez cry a bit

Na the swans fans dont have any problem with the Wigan fans, we just hate their manager, the abuse he would get for the whole game would be brilliant

I would happily lend Pompey all the money they need for the chance of playing Wigan in Swansea. It would be insane

The only way I would be happy to see Newcastle back in the championship is if Swansesa were replacing them in the premier league Just sod off the lot of you

And I hope Newcastle lose every game next year and go straight back down..on second thoughts no i've had enough of the Toon in the championship

Sousa was a defender so he's coached them all in a defensive style, none of the strikers could score regularly if their lives depended on it. Trundle has the will and determination bless him, just not the skill or stamina If they had put Trundle on earlier last weekend I think we would have won. Kuqi is our most expensive player, a striker, and he's feckin useless

I hate Roberto Martinez, I wish nothing but bad things for him and any team he takes charge of. He is after scalping our team again in the Summer, he's after our Captain now.

You are relying on Wigan and Roberto Martinez? I hope Wigan get stuffed, another 9 goal game like it was at Spurs. There is no chance of them getting anything at Chelsea. I'm totally with you on the media bleating on about England winning the World Cup, I love talksport but when they start its unbearable. When does the World Cup start? I cant see England getting past the Quarters, and they will do well to get that far. Teams like Spain and Argentina will rip them to shreds.

Leicester City Leicester City FC Are the greatest team in football! The world has ever seen! Come on you foxes!

Channel 4's alternative election. They will probably make it much more entertaining than the other channels.

I've watched this episode of Glee 3 times today, one of the best for me Britney and Sue Sylvester should have their own shows, the lines they have are just briliant. Not much on tonight, might give Disturbia followed by Family guy a go on BBC Three

Yea sorry, didnt notice that it couldnt be a Jack London book, thats what you get for skim reading!

The latest episode is great, I love how Britney seems to be getting more and more in on the scenes, she cracks me up. 'I dont know how to turn on a computer':lol:
