Well.. it’s been a long and difficult journey, which started some time in September 2008 when I looked in the mirror and said to myself “You’ve gotta lose some weight, you fat bastard!”. At 13st 8lbs, the finishing line seemed so far away.
Today, I weighed myself, after 6 days of being under 22 BMI, and I came in at…. (more…)

I don’t believe it! I just don’t believe it! I’ve hit my next target! When I worked out my average weight for this week, I was shocked to find that it was: (more…)

Just a quick post. Today, I have successfully hit the first of my last three targets! I weighed in at:
and I’m well chuffed! This means that I am now officially 11 stone!
Time to tick it off and move onto the next one…
| • Reach 22 BMI or below |  |
| • Get a weekly average of 22 BMI or below |  |
| • Get 7 consecutive days of 22 BMI or below | |

It was a year ago today that I bought Wii Fit after hunting all around the shops in Middlesbrough, only to find it in the very last shop I was going to check (Argos). Now, a year later, how have I done? (more…)

It’s certainly been a short while since I had any diet updates for you all! Then again, I’ve had my birthday, bonfire night, christmas AND new year to compete with since I was no longer declared as overweight. Over Christmas and new year I didn’t follow the diet because… well… how can ya??! Over those two weeks alone I’d put on 5 lbs! 😮 (more…)

Yup, it’s that time again for another DIET UPDATE and I’m especially proud of what I’ve achieved today!
Wii Fit informed me this morning that I am now within my IDEAL WEIGHT range! Only just, mind, at:
but it’s not overweight anymore! Excellent! That’s 12 stone 6 pounds!
Here’s hoping the next milestone comes along in good time…

I’ve been neglecting again! Here I am getting bored now and then, when I could be making a post on my blog! Oh well… Here’s a quick update of what I’ve been up to: (more…)

I haven’t been on the diet for absolutely ages… and sadly it shows! When I first bought Wii Fit a few months ago (just before I moved) I was at 25 BMI at the lowest, now I’ve weighed myself in at 26.16 BMI… that’s just over 13 stone!

Guess what I went and bought today…
Go on… guess… * (more…)

Yup, just come back from Birmingham after having an inverview there. After reading all of my FHM, playing Hot Pxl for an hour and listening to music all the way back home on the coach, I’m ready to hit they hay.
I managed to take some time to take a browse around the Bullring, a (or perhaps THE) shopping centre in Birmingham. I had a Starbucks, I bought Hot Pxl (see above) and I had a go at GT5 Prologue on the PS3 in a CurrysDigital shop. Peeps were asked to compete to see who could get the fastest time. I got 2’25.472 in total for my time round the London track, and I was .009 seconds behind the leader! Darn! Still, silver ain’t bad and, being realistic, if I could waltz in and get that close to the top then in all likelyhood someone else could too. I didn’t walk away empty handed though. I got a free PS2 t-shirt and GT keyring along with a couple of brochures so that’s not bad.
Oh yeah, no weighing today because I’m knackered.
