I joke, but need to sort for health reasons - Weight balooned when I stopped smoking and despite the cycling efforts, have really struggled to shift it as have been guilty of snacking and too much wine with meals…

Pivotal to the success of my challenge will be surviving a playing comeback tonight after three months out injured.

And not eating a load of shit afterwards.

Fuck michael mosely. I was doing hiit years ago before doctor bandwagon jumper decided to financially milk it 😉. I finally convinced Bletch that his way was archaic (he’s 50) and he embraced it. I made him basically.

RC - so, if you built him, did you also programme in his goddam awful dress sense & very dubious choice of beer?

Gents I can only offer apologies. That said most of his clothes came free with the beer. I had no dealings in that.

ah yes, the _Bletch Diet_ - though if I’m tight on making my target I might have to do like the boxers do at the weigh-ins and slip out of my 1960s flowery blouse.

For purely motivational purposes I just wondered how life was going for the shameful fat swine amongst you? Any progress from behind the flabby walls of shame? Surely someone is making good progress…

It’s time Gentlemen… Post your results and I will do the points for Jan… Very simply your score is the percentage if your target achieved multiplied by the difficulty rating… Illustrative examples: . Losing 1kg against a target of 1kg (100%) would have a 0.1 difficulty… Scoring 10 points

losing 4kg against a target of 4kg, (100%) would have a difficulty of 1.35 and so score 135 points

\_…and points make prizes! \_

Post results today

Fat Fereet average lost has been 2.6kg with current average at 105.4kg… Not hit target , but not hideous either

I think I’m the same, but don’t know. The cycling has gone off track, because of illness. Still have an inner ear infection, but hoping to cycle on Friday… getting behind now!

It’s not going well - I need to waddle down to the weighbridge at Botley to see what’s happening…I’ll get back to you.
