@matt-wood I went off Prison Break quite early on. The story seems a bit ridiculous right from the beginning.

I went off Prison Break because that Dr was really annoying. She was annoying in Walking Dead too he haha!

I have never seen LOST or Prison Break for that matter, either of them worth a go?

LOST is one of the greatest shows of all time until the ending, the storytelling is brilliant just don't watch the last couple of episodes

@lee-woodman Power is on my list. I couldnt get past 3rd season of Breaking Bad. Loved the 1st season but lost it after that. Doesnt help that I cannot stand Aaron Paul

Lost was potentially amazing but got rather ridiculous for the last couple of seasons which let it down massively, i probably wouldnt recommend watching it for that reason. Prison Break was good and i definitely think its worth a watch.

My two favourites were Power and Breaking Bad!

Watched 'Plead Me Guilty' the other day. Based on true events. If you like a court drama its pretty good. Also actually have some respect for Vin Diesel as an actor now

Midnight Special bit disappointing, lots of lovely special effects but bland as shite characters.

Lost deffo. Never watched Prison Break. @Keith-Anderson told me it gave him PTSD. Apparently he can’t go into a shower anymore...

@john-folan On my list and near the top now. Fingers crossed for a season 3 then

Finished off lovely, but set up beautifully for another season

Great Lets hope there is someone with at least half a brain in the Netflix meeting about a season 3.

The Boys Season 2 was awesome!!

@adam-williams
There is a diet/fitness thread now so feel free to continue the conversation there

Adam

I'll go ahead and recommend The Magic Pill before we leave the keto conversation behind

Might be good to watch it at the same time as Game Changers though in an attempt to get a balanced perspective as they're both massively biased in opposite directions (Game Changers is a pro-vegan doc).

Matt Wood

Bringing this thread back on track lol

If anyone has not seen the film 'Upgrade' I can recommend it. Currently on Amazon Prime.

@daniel-mills Usually with most people that subsides in time as your body adjusts to the lower carb intake.

Some tricks to help can be to lower your protein intake slightly and drink more water. Not all things work for all people though so bit of trial an error needed.

@adam-williams Interesting to hear first hand from someone who has been doing it long term. I did it for a bit and got terrible bad breath. Had to knock it on the head, couldn't be around anyone at work. Didn't mind all of the other aspects of it!
