    AFKA - Even worse if you are a smoker going to the game tonight - the whole stadium is No Smoking.

    There goes my finger nails and better get down the shop for a few packets of chewing gum!!

    No such thing as a no smoking stadium. Reading was no smoking and the concourse was like a fog. At Chelsea away last year i felt like a naughty schoolboy hiding in the toilets.

    I'll be on the concourse tonight giving out patches. Giving up smoking is easy anyway, i don't know why more people don't do it....

    I'm not that bothered about losing the weight as I've been fitter but heavier then I am now, so getting the fitness back first, and then the weight will look after itself

    smokers / dieters etc. how is everyone getting on ?

    Day 4 now. Like to to tell a tale of woe regarding the fags but the truth of the matter is its been ridiculously easy so far, unlike any of my previous 78 attempts. Occassional pang, a mouth full of sores and a bit of a sore throat is the only flip side i've had so far. Been drinking beer and going to football as well, so haven't avoided any events that might trigger a fag. Nottingham may prove a bit more tricky. Tried the patch for one day but found it uncomfortable, like having a needle in my arm, so haven't used again.

    Diet went a bit out the window last night though with a McDonalds. My dirty felt dirty and used after....

    Smudge, if you want to see Cornwall why don't you do LEJOG this year..

    I am back on my regime. Cycle to work every day which is about 14 mile round trip, then skip two evening meals in the week, lose about 2lbs a week.

    I really would love to, was inspired reading about it. But don't think my knee could take it.

    Plus i don't have a bike....

    Its not actually that much strain on the knees believe me - depending on what you've done to it of course? Get a cheap bike and do some riding, and see if your knee has problems.

    Did someone actually post the words 'Skip two evening meals a week' ? I missed a meal last night and went out for a few beers with no food after & this is the worst I have felt all over Christmas & New year today.

    yeah, but have breakfast and a decent lunch.. and don't do two nights in a row. Oh and don't booze on those nights either.
