Hi David. You are welcome to stay over with us. Johan Kleynhans

Heard the farmers almost want to give it for free for the next few months. Buy direct and cut out the middleman who will be the only one benefitting. Source 702 this afternoon.

April stinks. Back to 98 kg from 96. Trained about 60% from what I wanted to do. On top of that ate too much and also had a beer or 2 over weekends. Anyway back into discipline again having to redo all I have done the past 2 months. This was a total waste of valuable time and effort. It is amazing how quickly you pick up the weight again. It is like throwing a bottle into a pool. It pops right back to the surface. Eek

Weight is up to 97.1 from last week. This is not good. Will have to focus again. Also only managed to train once last week. Eish

Well well. Weight this morning 95.3. I must admit that I had a running stomach for a few days this week which probably helped as I ate nothing for 2 days. I also did not train the whole week due to not feeling well. I still take it however. So I am very close to 95kg which is one of my mini goals on the way to 80 kg.

I can also testify about the reading glasses. At 55 I started wearing glasses for reading. I used them for about a year. Weight was 106kg and I had a coke and chocolate just about every day. At 56 I drastically cut back on sugar and middle of 2016 I started training again. At the time I misplaced my glasses and realized I could see again. I am 59 now and I dont use glasses at all. My phone font is on the second smallest and I read it easily. I struggle a bit in low light however to read. During all of these years my blood pressure and blood sugar were normal. Only had a bit of colestorol. I believe it was the sugar all along.

96.4 this morning. Only lost 200 gram this week. My body is fighting back. I will have to hang in there. In the past I always started to pick up weight from this level. But to be honest I only trained once this past week where I normally train 3 times.

LOL if I dont believe it then I myself will never make it. My point is that I tried last year reading what you guys achieved and yet I tried but not fully committed. Always had a back door open to find an exuse to have a coke and a chocolate or a slice of bread. I was just getting tired of myself being over weight. Not once after having a chocolate was I happy with myself. Sometimes even before I ate it I was already cross with myself simply because I knew I was going to give in to the temptation. Going alone it is only human to leave a back door open. Thats why helping each other here and keep each other on our toes goes a long way to help break bad habits. Mine goes back 40 years. I believe for me to resist sugar is more difficult than to resist an glass of red wine or a nice beer. At the end of this year I am sixty. For me it is not a delayed midlife crisis. I am desperate. If I dont change my lifestyle now I might not be able to ever change it going forward. I have no choice anymore. I just wish I had somebody a number of years ago to get me out of this rut. We work ourselves to death. Eat badly, stress about life and abuse our bodies in the process. I want to be healthy, look healthy and be able to enjoy riding my bike. I see what some of my work mates are going through and I think I was there 2 years ago. Some of them only knows one thing. Work, work and in whatever time they have left they partie to make up and relieve the stress. In the mean time they are busy killing themselves in the process. I was almost there. I need everybody here to keep me in check. Years ago I had the will power to carry on. Now it is more difficult

I always had many excuses not to train after a hard day at work. I have now told myself that no matter what I train 2 days during the work week. If not on the bike then the spinning bike. I always feel satisfied after training. Tired but satisfied.

And as always I am talking to myself just as much????

Come on Miles. You can do it. If I can you can. Make time don't slide back into the rut. Make some life changing decisions here. No more this and that. Just do it!
