I'm back! Sorry for the long gap between posts. I stopped going to the gym for a few weeks and didnt follow my diet to the letter. Its only in the last week or so I have been exercising and trying to eat clean - but I did go out on Saturday night to celebrate. Since stopping drinking, I have become a bit of a lightweight (in more ways than one) and dont end up drinking much anyway - 4 pints would be a good amount these days.

I did try an walk the Cumbrian Way in 3 days at the beginning of September - we did day 1, 26 miles and camped, but one of our party knackered their feet, and then after a very late start on day 2, we got serious rain and my waterproof gave up - so we decided that walking an 8 mile high level section while I was soaked and someone was limping a bit was just dangerous. Will try again!

I have a wedding to go to this weekend for my cousin - so I may have to partake of a few beers again, and of course there will be a good meal. On the plus side, it will be good seeing all the family again, some of whom may not even recognise me! I saw an old friend who has not seen me for a year, and he actually had to ask me who I was :-) (I have lost a full third of my original weight!). I had to buy a new suit for this - I have gone from 44" chest to 36", and 38" pants to 30". The 36" jacket is a little bit too big, but nowhere cheap in the UK goes below 36" jackets. I dont think theres many short people who are healthy left in this here country!
