It is Christmas, not the best time for dieters. However, Becoming Thin is of a journey than a destination. One thing I have learnt over the last few months is that &quot;self denial&quot; does not work. I have to want to not eat something rather than say to myself I can't have it. A subtle but imp ...

Stepped on the scales this morning and even though I am not as active as I normally am by any means due to the flu and the sedentary lifestyle that has been hoisted on me I managed to finally break the 3 digit barrier.  Yes I am now - according to my scales - under 100kg so I am very p ...

I feel a bit Nelson like being deaf on one side and a bit wobbly on the pins.  I have no energy and the wretched automated telephone marketing companies keep disturbing me as soon as I manage to get my head down for a nap.  Thought I  ...

Unfortunately there is no listing of carbohydrate content on the package.. A whole bunch of other stuff regarding side effects and symptoms etc, just so long as it doesn't have the same effect as some Amoxicillin I was prescribed in my you ...

I predict that I will break the 100kg mark sometime in the next 10 days.  At the official we ...

For the last 3 weeks I have managed to shed over a 1kg per week - something that I am very pleased with.  I think the secret has been focussing on the target 90kg, and sticking to the programme.  As I ha ...

Although half my allotted time has past I have resolved to continue this programme until I hit my goal of 90kg.  However, I am pleased to say that people are beginning to say I have lost weight.

It seems that 1 BMI point is worth about 3 lbs. I am currently 32BMI so I have another 6 lbs or  ...

I have been meaning to write for a few days, but jet lag has been taking its toll. Normally I have no problem getting back onto local time but this return has been harder than usual. I guess my body just didn't want to leave Miami. For the previous 48 hours I have been awake, got so bad in the eve ...

It is amazingly hard to eat healthily while travelling.  I arrived at Miami International and got checked in last night and looked for something to eat. My options where Pizza Hut, or Burger King.  Or some sugar loaded pastries from a ...
