I have flirted with the Weight Watchers Diet.
I borrowed the books off a girl at work and read them, but I am not doing it properly or counting the points.

I eat 2 meals per evening, as I would rather have plenty to fill me up rather than a little portion of something fattening.

I am not going to a gym or doing sports, but I walk one way to work (one mile) and get the bus home.

And I write everything I eat in a book.

That's cracking progress imo talking book.

Weighed in on Thursday. Same weight :| Can feel a bit of extra muscle though and didn't do an awful lot as was busy working and readying for the weekend.

Then the weekend :_| Friday night was to be the abstemious night. 10 pints later and that's my 2000cals taken up before weeven start on the food! Then a pub lunch on Saturday, followed by the 40th which I can't even calculate drink-wise. Had to finish off Sunday when I got back with egg & *****to soak up some of the shiit which was surging round my body.

Broke myself back in gently yesterday. Got back into the sit ups, press ups etc but had two big wedges of baguette in the afternoon.

Now got 4 days to salvage things before next weigh-in. Nothing to eat so far today. Plan to get a chest expander, a sit up bench thing, a skipping rope, and those weights you get to put around your ankles and wrists.

lost 3 kilos in the last 5 days due to a stomach virus, so going to try and knock a few more kilos off by the end of the month. Bought a couple pairs of cycling shorts today and am planning on doing an hour a day on the bike atleast 5 times a week.

Week 1 (2-9 Jan): 12st 9lbs (3lb loss).
Week 2 (9-16 Jan): 12st 7lbs.
Week 3 (16-23 Jan): 12st 6lbs.

Was weighing myself on different parts of the floor

When I started I was 14st 10lbs and I done that when I got down to 13st 10lbs in the first two month or so. I was adamant that my scales were playing up.

Well done on the loss so far. Lets keep it up. :D

wd Banquo. 14"11 here, 14"11 and a half in truth probably, but a definite move away from the 15 mark, which does me.

Couple of 6 mile walks this week, and got some weights that go 'round your wrists for a bit of extra resistance when I do my dumbells and other stationary exertions.

Am toying with the idea of going swimming. Haven't been for years - partly because I'm a lazy slob, partly because it is hugely embarassing when Norwegian whalers come after me at the deep end. However, think I could just about get from the changing room to the pool without causing too many people to faint, so that's the aim for the week ahead

You lads are doing it wrong, you want to eat loads of milk tray, that'll sort you out.

Good going so far, Jomo.

Just get in there and get swimming, fucck what anyone else may think (although, in truth, they're probably more interested in concentrating on their own swimming). It's a means to an end and excellent exercise, as you already know.

I have just purchased myself a new cross trainer, which I'm in the process of building just now (in between taking breaks to potter about on here), and that'll be going out into the garage. So I expect to be making a bigger dent in the weight losses each week, rather than the 1 or 2 pounds here and there. Consistency's the name of the game, though.

How are the eating habits coming along? I'm finding that I'm not missing eating foods that are bad for you at all. Additionally, I've discovered that I'm now altering my eating habits unconsciously, opting for things which are far and away more health for me, like different pastas and fish instead of, say, burgers or ***** Furthermore, I've almost exclusively started drinking water rather than any other drink and feeling all the better for it. If I can just add the extra exercise (via the cross trainer) to this I think I'll be on my way quicker than I expected to be. I've been doing exercise on the bike but it just doesn't give you as good a work out as running would, although my stamina has increased a lot.

It's really slowed down now but I am building up muscle nicely, lines around my shoulders, biceps etc coming through.

Anyone watch that BBC show that told the truth during the week ?

I'm meeting up with some pals for a Superbowl all-nighter Sunday, so next week could be interesting :^0

^ vwd btw Talking Book. Cracking progress

Cheers JOMO.

Seems to have been a good week in 'MO towers. Not sure why, as I haven't done an awful lot bar the usual weight and resistance regime.
Still not been swimming. Also want to move on from flat walks along the same route to hill walking. There's hills barely a 15 minute drive from
where I am, and there are a couple of 2000ft hills thatwill require more cardiovascularilyismishment, and more resistance on the leg
muscles, but at the same time can be mounted by any reasonably able eprson without the use of crampons etc.

what? walk there you idiot.

20 mile round trip on top of a coronory-inducing icy hill scramble is not something I am currently considering.

Good going, Jomo. Well done so far. Keep it up, mate.
