Sweet Sixteen

[Rat Catcher]

Weighed in at 16-13.0 today - first time I've been under 17 stone since I got fat. Dropped 9Lb since the beginning of the month by trying to exercise (mostly 30 mins on the exercise bike but sometimes a swim or a walk instead) daily. Hope to be down to 15 stone by Christmas!

Thank, DM. It was actually your post a couple of months ago about the heart attack victim that rekindled my motivation to lose the excess.

I was about your age when I started piling on the weight. Before that I could eat pretty much anything I wanted with very little exercise!

I was lazy before I took this job on.All those symptoms yis list are the same as if ya were drinking lots of cider.Just saying.

Well done, but if the focus is primarily on weight loss, as opposed to general fitness, diet is more effective apparently. The arbitrary 80/% diet 20% exercise for weight loss. The exercise builds muscle also.

A 'gentleman' told me one time cider is great for hiding the smell of beer if you've been drinking all night.  He was all in.  He had 2 cans of cider in his coat pockets as I dropped him off to work one morning.  Management job 'n all.  Last I saw of him as I did a U-turn was him taking a piss in the bushes before he went into to work... 

Sometimes I think I picked the wrong career path
