I've lost 3kg in the last 3 weeks and am therefore inspired by success.I'm quite astonished that someone as fundamentally lazy and greedy as me has managed to lose weight over Christmas.I'd be were it not that 3 kg are a drop in the ocean of lard, and there's a hell of a long way to go.

I keep peeking in here and thinking "My God! Why do they want to lose weight when they're already feathers?"
Last day of the Old Year and, I hope, Last Day of the "I'll deal with it Some time" attitude.
I'm feeling a tad gutted
I keep peeking in here and thinking "My God! Why do they want to lose weight when they're already feathers?" and then thinking that I ought to do something about my weight. Just looking at McShrooms 122kg made me think a bit more and I just bullied the scales to tell me how bad it is. It's BAD! 127.8kg! Last day of the Old Year and, I hope, Last Day of the "I'll deal with it Some time" attitude. I've done some cycling on four of the last five days and it was made clear to me that the Brooks Bone was feeling it with the lard and gasping for breath on the slightest incline is not joyfull. It's going to be a slow and difficult one but it has to be! Be prepared for some Heavy Duty whining over the next year or so!
I'm feeling a tad gutted having put on a whopping 8 lbs over Christmas, though only managing about 25 miles in nearly a fortnight won't have helped. I have had a few beers & glasses of wine and I don't doubt that the buffet style food that has predominated is deadly. Hey ho, at least it guards against complacency.

It doesn’t matter where you start. Just start.

I think you've also re-elected Edward Heath's government* for the end of June. *For the Very Young, Heath introduced the 3-day week.
Damn! Caught. I went across the road to get the bits for my lunch (pitta, houmous, cheese, yoghurt etc), and someone forced me to buy a chocolate bar! OK, no one forced me. I was weak and stupid and made a mistake based on habit.No one forced me to eat it either. Idiot.
Andrij. I pronounce you Complete and Utter GIT
