If i can get a professional makeup artist to paint my skin to look all ripped and vascular i'll look thoroughly mahoosive, then hire a professional photographer to make it look convincing and winners podium here i come.

Hmm - probably best not to post the details of my fiendish plan on here. Did i learn nothing from bond villains!
Awesome pic, but Tony you're not doing yourself many favours posting up tips on preventing the gag reflex and then a picture of a guy touching his toes - Ak

    Thanks for that Fi, I would say I'm out.
    I've done what I said I would do but for a shape up comp it's not worth the effort and I'd be wasting yours and everyone elses time.

    Cheers.


    OK if you're sure, I hope you have made some personal progress that's the most important thing



    I'm sure, I've dropped 5 kg in weight which puts me in the 90 kg class.
    I've also competed at 2 Power Lifting comps, qualifying for the British in both that'll do for now.

      Here starts the trotting out of excuses .....    


      Wish I was making excuse.  Felt rank for 3-4 days now.  Still, up at 6.30am tomorrow for more cardio - won't let some pathetic bug beat me!

          Nope

          Really really gripey guts.  Tender and sore.  Know its not my stomach playing up as it right down in my intestines.  Not good.

          Stomach is bloated and distended.  Still, meant I couldn't over eat at the weekend!

              It's got to look convincing Hazel

              I may just use my extreme photoshop skills instead!

                    That's the wonder of male illnesses - they have an incredibly quick onset, burn brightly (as do our mentions of them), but then mysteriously disappear to never be heard of again - almost as though they didn't exist

                    Womens illnesses however have a similar description, only tales of them hang around forever

                        Nah, i've had the sh1ts for about 4-5 days, just the day or two before was just uncomfy, the weekend made me feel like junk too

                        Somehow cleaned itself up as today progressed

                        Back to cardio in morning

                          Low carbing last week actually worked....dropped 3lbs down to 13stone1lb now total loss is 16lbs

                          About another 2 or 3lbs should do it.

                          I like to think of myself as Papa's serious competition

                              And so the end is nigh!   

                              Just a reminder folks.....

                              Competition ends on Monday 27th July and you have until midnight on Sunday 2nd August to get your pics up.
                              As with the before photos - at least one of your after pics must have the date displayed in it in some way.

                              Look forward to seeing the pics!

                                Thank fook for that.  I'm desperate to be able to eat carbs again.  I think on Monday morning, I'll have a Maccy D's breakfast, KFC for lunch, Burger King dinner and a Pizza Hut for the evening.

                                  PL - that day is called Wednesday

                                  I'm going to take a few sets of photos and try and pick the most flattering ones to post up.

                                  I'm looking to the new competition already as i want to be in a better situation by then. This one has been more of a warmup
