Diet experiment

[Kyonovice]

Just weighed in with new scales:

weight 11st 6

% Body Fat 24%

% Body Water 55%

% Bone Density 7.1%

BMI 25.3 (But BMI is a load of rubbish)

In the US, we have "Dryuary", which some do in January, after New year's Eve, or my preference, February (it's the shortest month!).

For your weight, I'm guessing you'll lose about 3 pounds just from cutting out alcohol, if you usually do 2-3 drinks/day. There's a lot of calories, mostly from carbs, in alcoholic drinks. Gin is especially bad if you combine it with tonic, because it has a lot of calories by itself.

On top of the diet experiment, I have just ordered myself a new bike on our cycle to work scheme...I will shed the belly and turn my weight into muscle!
