Be Excellent To Each Other

Heh, I had that issue when at Centre Parcs with my family a few months back. I literally couldn't tie my old shorts tight enough so ended up having to nip out to their swim shop and buy new shorts because I was one water slide away from an indecent exposure charge.

Totally nicking this. Wonderful.

To be honest I replaced all my work stuff from Matalan, I spent around £250 and got 6 shirts some trousers, a jacket and some jumpers and shoes

Sure most of it will be falling to bits in 6 months but no issue with that. Will be getting 5 or so pairs of cheap chino type trousers from there next week.



Mine wouldn't stay up in my bedroom never mind in water! Got a good Black Cyber Friday deal as well. Got 2 pairs that were once £21.99 each for £12

I am lucky, my fiends mum is a seamstress and has tailored all my suits.

My neck has only shrunk 1/2 an inch, so all my shirts still fit, as I wear 3 peice suits, hides any bagginess.

I went on ebay and got a load of t-shirts and jeans, as I might be dropping a jean size again.

Yes down from 18 to 17.5 inch

Please to say my swimming shorts fitted and there were no near misses in the pool:)

Didn't get the chance to try the slides as I ended up with complete role reversal, I was asking my son if he wanted to try one of the big slides and he was saying "not yet daddy"

Just after my last 10k.

Nice hat.

Tis my running hat, so folks can't lose me..

Dude! Looking fit, but weren't you a bit warm? Add at least 10 degrees (some say 20) to the actual temperature for your running (once warmed up) temperature. I don't get into long trousers till it's freezing.

Yes but it was cold when we got there, I have taken my base layer off.

Always wear the hat in winter, as folks recognise it

Well, you've got to rock a look. I'm a vest and shorts man. But then, I also disappear into the crowd. Hmm.

My weight seems to have stabilised at 14 stone 10, been this way for a few weeks.. No pic this time...

so far next year I have entered, 3 x half Marathons (2 Trail, 1 Road), 1 x 10k race and 2 Triathlons. That takes me to June.

I found a great weight-loss aid at the weekend - a bug, removed 3 kilos from me. And made getting on a flight back from Copenhagen a bit dicey. But I made it. Now if I can just keep some of that weight off while my stomach is nice and small, I'll be very satisfied.

I've been feeling like a right fat, out of shape, old fuck. So I went out for a run and then weighed myself. The measurements tallied with my observations.

I put on a lb over christmas, now 14st 9

Put on 8lbs over Christmas, to be expected eating more and doing less!

Got rid of 4lbs this week, back on 20,000 steps a day and "normal" food.

Pleased that what I'm doing is sustainable, its also the first time in years that I've not needed by special work trousers that are normaly 2 inches larger that my normal waste size I normally have to use these for 6 weeks or so every Jan. This year I just stayed the same!

Do you regularly shit yourself at work?!

No! It was just that every January I couldn't get into my normal trousers as I had overdone it over the holiday.

I thought that 38 inch was the biggest I ever had to use, until this week when I was clearing out all my old clothes I found a pair of 40 inch!

...

Cras is one to talk anyway, I assume he has asbestos trousers for work to stop the coffee burns.

Week 2 of constant back pain. I suspect it is a combination of picking Shitpants up a lot more over Yuletide, and driving the Ka with the heaters on full. I am treating it with ibuprofen, paracetamol and 5%EtOH. Makes me narky and miserable

Rather than give it drugs, you could just turn the heaters down.

The thermostat is held on by 2/3rd bolts it has holes for, Radweld and hope

Starting running again tonight after six weeks off. It's going to hurt.

Good luck.

I swam for the 1st time in 6 weeks, that was a very hard 68 lengths

Hashtag humblebrag

Are we still doing title of your sex tape?

Only when playing GTA. Like, 60 times a session.

Etc.

He didn't say how big the pool was.

25m, so just over a mile.

A mile is just over 1600m, dude.

Yes 68 lengths is 1700m

Haha, someone got owned by Kovacs - what a time to be alive!

That's not what I've just read.

25m x 68 lengths = 1,700m

What's not to get?

25m is totally not "just over a mile"

He'd already specified the number of lengths though - is it really that hard to put two posts together to get the total?

Of course not, and that's exactly what everyone did. DavPaz's post was a joke based on a purposefully over-literal reading of Kov's post.

Ah that's the confusing part. Jokes are usually funny.

You need a double blind control test to confirm that hypothesis. You can't be the control.

About time you realised that.

Blimey. Sorry Kov

It is ok dude.

Been out running 5k six times in the last week and a bit. I know it's not long but I seem to be finding it way harder than usual to recover any fitness. Either it's because of the cold or just I'm old and useless and shouldn't bother even trying to do anything.

5k is not a short distance, are you having a rest day?
