Maintained again. Not been feeling too well, so held off on the gym and increased my calorie intake.

The big news is that I fly out of the UK on November 2nd 2006, to spend a year in New Zealand, and possibly Austrailia after that. As you can imagine, that puts weight loss on a back burner, as I want to enjoy myself and be flexible. I will simply aim to maintain, but will have to judge it off my waist, as scales might be hard to find for a while.

I will be posting here still, but it might drop off in volume, while my main blog should see the bulk of the travel posts.

Stayed the same this week - I spent the whole weekend at my cousins wedding, so that involed a meal, some beer, no gym etc. Pretty happy that I maintained and I had an enjoyable time. Anyway, Congratulations to Steve and Kirsty Hammond!
