155.3lbs today.  Still maintaining, haven't been running much but walking a good 20km a week.  Seeing COVID cases going up again here since the kids went back to school and folks went back to work.  Seems the 25-40's are socialising enough to spread this and get things locked down again so expecting to see the gyms go bye bye and be off limits.

Has the second lockdown fatted us all out?

Anyway ... weight (just checked) is 78kg so ###### diet and daytime laziness being balanced by still going out running.

Also up to 1114km for the year, which I'm pretty pleased about.

156.6kgs.  It's not been a great year.  

That has been a rough month. Much happened?

Nope, hence the increase! 🤣

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

Interesting how these things work out. My wife has lost about a stone this year, she's now thinner than when we got married 20+ years ago and her wedding ring is slightly too big. My weight has stayed the same. I'm over 2000km running for the year so far, definitely going to be less than last year.

I welcome its return!

Since March I had turned into a fat wheezy blob. I had stopped running and gained 10kg. On October 12th I decided enough was enough and started on the regime that helped me lose 35kg 10 years ago.

In the last month and a bit I've lost 6.5kg (3lbs per week) and am running 3 times a week. I'm hoping to get a 10K training run in on Sunday. 

My target weight is 72kg (currently 78.5)

Entries are invited for the 2021 weight reduction matrix spreadsheet.

Weighing in day will be Wednesday 

I'll endeavour to publish each week apart from when I don't.

If numbers drop below 4 (including me) I'll stop it.

Would love to see this going again, not looking to lose much, just the Xmas increase but sure as heck not looking to gain either.  More accountability can't be bad, can it?  LOL

Goal weight is 160lbs, currently 163lbs.

Dude, that’s pretty pedantic, but disciplined... Some people lose 3 lbs just from a visit to the bathroom every morning 😊

I always make certain I weigh myself post ablutions

That's why I'm at 163lbs after all the Christmas food 🤣  Where's a McWhirter when you need one?

Only ever weigh in after the constitutional visit to the porcelain thunderbox.  Got to stick to the SOP's 😉😆

I've been on the case now since October 13th. Exercised (walk or run or both) every day since then, got the food intake back on track.

I was 85.1kg on October 13th, yesterday I weighed in at 74.1kg

157.4.  I wish that was pounds but it isn't....

I have invested in quite a bit of new gear, real weights (no more York specials), olympic bar (they are longer than I guessed), rack, bench, kettlebells.  Safety squat bar is ordered (only after getting a real bar did I realise my shoulder mobility is so poor I can't do bar squats) and rowing machine is due in a few weeks (was a 15 week wait list).  

My living room is now a gym, so it will all watch over me as I have a KFC...
