    Starting today (well, yesterday)

    Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Will get round to adding all the signature paraphernalia at some point I'm sure! Another 100% day, assuming black coffee is allowed. Felt full of energy today, shame I just work in an office, but I tell ya, that keypad didn't know what had hit it! Still...

    Starting today (well, yesterday)

    Hi all just thought I'd pop in and introduce myself. I'm James and I started the Exante diet on Monday morning. Until then it had been sitting in boxes in the hall waiting for me to finish eating my Father's Day present (a tub of sweets by the way, not a model of a Spitfire or an amusing...

    Well he's persistant, I'll give him that!!

    Back into the dieting saddle I leap, dust off the old dieting chaps and dig the dieting spurs into the horse (dieting horse). How many times must a guy say "right, THIS is it, THIS is the last diet" before it becomes true? Hopefully, this is the last time. A couple of years ago my wife and I...

    Must get rid of tummy!

    :eek: Hey, I just had a thought (and worked it out on my calculator cos I'm a bit of a nerd like that!). My loss so far is 20% of my journey to goal weight! That's a very nice thought. The other thing that my wife reminded me of earlier, is that I am now, according to my CDC, about to become...

    I do believe my right man boob is deflating so as to come in line with it's partner! I also found that a top that was tight last week is now loose on me, which is nice, especially as it's my footy shirt and I can now wear it in the stands when I go to watch the match on Tuesday night. It's...

    Must get rid of tummy!

    So that's what chatterboxes are! Thought i was goin nuts, it's like a weird subconscious bit of my brain that says stuff before i get the chance to stop it! So far I've just answered it back, maybe I'll have to try locking it in a box and swallowing the key, are keys allowed on AAM week? And...

    Must get rid of tummy!

    My left man boob is shrinking! Good news you might think, but the right one isn't! Am going to be all lop-sided for my first weigh-in tomorrow!
