    No loss at all this week, but I did have 2 glasses of wine this week, don't know how bad it will be after a week living on expenses in Brazil.

    Hi Essexian

    your new chain is probably jumping because the teeth on one or more or your rear sprockets is worn down. The old chain doesn't jump because that's also worn.

    As you're ordering a new bike & have fitted the old chain back, I would leave it at that but perhaps would carry a chain tool with me in case of any further problems.

    Still , the walk home probably burnt a few calories !
    Well done on loss so far

    Ta Mike, that’s what I thought. The drive train needed a darn good clean as well….didn’t impress the wife using one of her best tea towels doing so!

    The new bike is a Specialized Secteur Sports but as I need a small frame, I am having to wait for the boat to arrive. Sigh.

    OK so I seem to be going backwards but still well ahead of schedule. Week off next week and planning a few long rides to burn off any potential excesses over the long weekend.

    Hold the phone! I see what you mean about version control. The version above is copied from Mikelyons being the last, but I see that Greg T posted one almost simultaneously. Can anyone advise which is the correct version???

    It's like number-wang out there people!

    No weight lost this bike, ate like a hungry pig and did no miles.

    Next week will try harder 3 out of 10

    Hey! What's going on here? I already updated my stats and they were removed. Does somebody not like the 6lb weight loss?

    I'm away to have a cream tea for solace.

    I have done nothing but eat then entire long weekend....

    In particular I have been laid low by these little calorie bomblets

    GU Rocky Road bites

    gu-naughties.jpg


    These little fellas weigh in at a whopping 72 Cals EACH....

    I had five sitting in the queue at Sainsburys.

    I now have three days to get myself moving and I'm resigned to having (ANOTHER) flat week. Still I get a long run up at next week.
    Fixed gear for wet weather / hairy roadie for posing in the sun.

    I'll give it a go if it's not too late. There are seven weeks and a bit left so I'll weigh myself on Friday and then (try to) lose 7Lb by the 25th Oct.

    I'm 5'9" and approx 12st7Lb.

    I told my girlfriend that we should have two vegetarian meals a week and no alcohol after this weekend, she said yes that means nothing short of a full blown throw the TV out the window argument is going to make her budge on this.

    I'll give it to Thursday then I'll be eating dead skin off my lip and by Saturday full blown cannilbalism...

    For some reason, my weight loss wasn't in this table so I have added it back in. Perhaps we shoud use "version" numbers?

    Ye gads.

    I just weighed myself in hospital and I am back to 83kg. My low point during this exercise was 78.1kg.

    I have been gorging myself big time and doing absolutely no exercise at all.

    Things will probably get worse before they get better as I have been told to do no exercise for at least another week. So I will be sitting at home watching TV and eating.

    I will lay off the sauce though (I'm not talking HP or Heinz). Things should get better in the following weeks as I am planning on a thorough fitness and nutrition regime.

    It is clear that I quickly put weight on when idle and likewise shift it when active.

    (edited to display correct values in table)
