feeling very heavy this week dont know why i think i look fat but my other half said i look a lot bigger, I never see this i just see me. i am wearing XXXL tee shirts so i must be getting bigger, but as i have started at a new gym that has lots of cardio / fat burning machines, i have started doing 3 x 40 min fat burning, and see how it goes will weight in again on sat and see the results. 

Well what can i say at weight in today i went 17st 7lbs, how did i manage that ive done three seassions of cardio this week on top of my training was expecting a drop or to stay the same, only differance was i used Bulgar wheat instead of pasta and took some papaya enzyme to help with digestion, just to see if it does, and it did,

Well more of a fat burn program on the static bike or the walker, i am open to ideas ! never been one for a lot of cardo not really into running, other halfs a runner half marathons and 10k runs but i just watch and support from the side line, it bores me running and going nowwhere.

At weight in on sat i weight 17 st 5 lbs dropped 2 lbs in three weeks

Hi ya, got some good lifts going on there mate. How's it going at new images? My brother went down there sunday said it seemed alright, has been trying to talk me into going!
Just a quickie, noticed you where buying quark, do they sell it at Gosport ASDA? had a look in newgate lane but couldn't see it.

Crying Freeman yes they do sell it in gosport asda thats where i get mine from,the milk end of the cheeze ailse if that makes sense second shelf up from the bottom with the soft cheeze/ goats cheeze. dont take it all, will be in tomorrow to get some more.Its ok training there but if you catch all the standing and talking crowd it can take some time to complete your work out, but you just have to move them along, My workout dont take long so i am in and out quit quickly, apart from the cycling twice a week, got me a free exercise bike today and i will be doing my cardio at home i think from now on, first thing in the morning.
