"This is the End" (Jim Morrison)

so here we are and like Charity i am not really sure i have too much i really want to say. but here goes!
firstly Chazza, i beat you to it. went to Zuma on Sunday and discovered my drinking prowesss has gotten smaller like everything else. gonna have to rethink drinking. kamikaze approach wont  work anymore.

the start seems a v long time ago. frankly it's hard to remember. middle month can get quite dark at times. but i always knew this would take a while. well, three months. final month when the food goes up is such a relief.

need a bit of a rest i think. i am somewhtat debilitated now. i guess i hobbled over the finish line.  my knee gave out on the 21st May and my surgeon's advised a montths rest. this advice i ignored. i double skipped for about 2/3 of the program. doing this for a week of 21min sesssions "broke" me. left heel and right foot gone. have called the doc to organise xray. so took to swimming but that has aggravated the knee. Anybody read "Catch22"?

i have learned a lot about diet. ssimple stuff. this is good as i can only remember simple stuff.
i have looked at this whole this as an experiment on myself. the fat burn aspect is an eye opener and also how much you can change in the final week or so. Radical.

so thanks to the gents for devising this plan. but have to give biggest thanks to my helper who prepared  most of my food and did most of my shopping after informing me she didnt "do" cooking. So Evelyn, V big thanks to you. Thx to Shaona for settigng up the blog and loading photo. and thanks to Chazza for "technical" help. They know i am lazy. i know i  am lazy. lazy is ok.


two thoughts (dont usually have more than 1):

i seem to have a crazy sweet tooth at the moment. never had one before. hope this is not permanent.

it really is quite weird to spend your entire adult life believing you are a size "medium" only to find you are a "small".  i am having trouble assimilating this.

thanks to all who helped and supported me through this!
