Hi all
As some of you know, I started trying to get a bit trimmer and more Superstar competitor worthy during this years contest.
So an update on progress (as we are near the end of another competition)
I had a target to get below 19 stone by my birthday. That was Sunday, I achieved that target by 3 pounds!
BMI - reduced by 4 so far, still a way to go, I want to drop another 4-5 points off that.
Percentage weight loss so far - 5% - equivalent to a small dog!
The pounds reduction stands at - 17 (in the UK, there are 14 to a stone, so that's 1 stone and 3 pounds)
Waist from 46 to 42 - need to buy new trousers already >.<
Shirt Size from XXXL to XXL and almost into an XL now :)
Yesterday, I managed to get into some Jeans that I haven't worn for almost 10 years!
All of this achieved during this year's Superstar!
And it won't be long before the next Blazing 9 thread starts too!
Congrats Anthony that's a pretty nice achievement. Looking forward to Blazing 9.
SuperStar Anthony!
Hope you dinnae mind if I ask. Have you been exercising more eating better, eating less, or just walking the template fu?

Eating better in the main - I use a free diary app - www.myfitnesspal.com - runs on web and on iphone/ipad, so I can scan bar codes, put food in at restaurants and watch my balance between carbs, proteins and fats (and not just be calorie oriented) much better.
Stalled a bit this week, but as it was my birthday week, I'm blaming the triple choccy cake I got for my birthday - back on track now though, so next week the fall should continue.
My wife is so pleased she has made the mistake of promising to pay for a trip to Disneyland, California when I get to 14 stone - and I should be able to get on most of the rides then too!
We've been to them all except the California one, we are kind of amusement park nutters :)

Congrats on the success Anthony! I know what you mean about birthday weeks, mine was last Saturday. I'm in the same boat, trying to improve my eating habits and exercise more. My goal is to be able to run a 5k by summer. I'd love to try one of the adventure-y ones like warrior dash or Run for your Lives (a zombie run)!
For us non-anglophiles how much is a stone again?
