You know somethings happened when you have to go hunting for a new belt and whatever it was you where wearing just slides strai off you ass....I dont own a set of scales at this stage.
Yeah, its ok....

I have had to buy new jeans 3 times so far....... and add 2 additional holes that didnt exist to my belt... which means I have moved about 7 belt holes from when I started....

Barrabob - seeing as this topic is titled 'Way off topic...' I just thought I'd add -> Relativity and quantum mechanics I think will help exaplain what would happen if you were travelling at the speed of light and you turned on your headlights. I think time has to distort to allow for that to occur ... ?

I speculate that light will work in a very similar way to sound... it will simply appear to bunch up in the same place (just like sound does when you break the sound barrier)...

Einstein sort of disagreed ;) Depends on whether you are watching the bike, or on it.

No but see sound actually *does* constructively interfere when sourced from a vibration travelling at the speed of sound (in a specific medium i might) whether you are able to hear it or not .... light doesn't behave the same way in all situations.

22 Movember

Starting weight: 136.4
Current weight : 106.5
Lost this week +0.8kg
Total weight lost: 27.7kg

Next milestone 30kg lost (2.3kg away)
Next milestone after that 100kg

Unfortunate result.... But last week I lost 3.2kg.... I think part of that was probably dehydration or something, which affected this weeks result.... The overal trend is that I am losing almost a kilo a week, so I am not worried....

On average I go for a walk every two days, usually between half and hour to an hour and a half....

I did a trackday on Saturday and thought that would make up for it and more, but it turns out I was wrong hehehe

Hmmm I think a trackday tires you out more mentally than physically...
Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD

Bit of a messed up week....

Drank too much on Friday (Well... you just HAVE to sometimes)...

On Sat night we had a dinner party with my old boss... probably ate a bit much, and had too much wine...

To make up for it I went to the gym for a few hours on Sun and yesterday.... also did loads of excercise.... Behaved myself foodwise for the rest of the week too...

Keen to see how I go.....

Keep up the good work mate - I have followed this story with more than a bit of interest myself :oops: ....

Went from 85kg in 2001 to 90k by 2004. Gave up smoking in Sept. '04, and within 6 months had pegged out to 95kg. By the end of '05, was up to 100kg. During this year, continued getting *fatter*, finally plateaued at 112kg :shock: :oops: :oops: in September. Have been making an effort, due in part to how succesful you have been..........dropped to 110kg by drinking less JB&C, and after a couple of weekends riding that 750 trailbike in the mountains, have now dropped to 106kg :D .

At this rate, riding a dirt bike (albeit a big fat heavy pig) up in the mountains for 4 hours every Sunday morning, I should be down to 100kg by Xmas :P ........and back to normal 85-90kg by the time the next PCRA season starts :twisted:

Keep the updates coming along. I am sure you have inspired others here to also have a nudge at losing the love-handles :P :wink:
