In Which Fatso Misses Her Enell

If there’s one thing that I really hate about losing weight, it’s going down clothes sizes and being too small for clothes that you really, really love. Right now, I have a few pieces in my wardrobe that will still fit me until I’m maybe a size 26, but they’ll just look really, really loose; [...]

Weekly Weigh-in #26: June 24, 2012

±0lbs 24st 8lbs(344lbs/156.04kg) (-3lbs/1.36kg) Another week of maintaining?! I’m going mad. I think that’s the problem. I think I’m going – or have already gone – mad. Considering the kind of week I’ve had, foodwise – one of those very bare weeks where I’ve literally been raiding my cupboards for something to cook, and I’ve [...]

In Which Fatso Has The Best Spin Class Ever

I don’t know what happened to my Spin class last night, but it was like… KARAOKE SPIN. Last week, Lisa, our instructor, told us that she was gonna make a “GREATEST HITS!” compilation, and did any of us have any suggestions? I was the only one who did; I wanted Europe’s The Final Countdown. A [...]

In Which Fatso’s Thinking of Switching Things Up

So, I’ve been Spinning since March, 2010. I’ve added two classes on since that, so that my schedule is: Sunday: Spin; Tuesday: Zumba; Wednesday: Spin; Friday: Spin. I did, at one point, add on Aqua Fit/Aqua Zumba on a Wednesday morning, and when Gillian, my Zumba instructor, went off on maternity leave, I changed my [...]

Weekly Weigh-in #25: June 17, 2012

±0lbs 24st 8lbs(344lbs/156.04kg) (-3lbs/1.36kg) Oh well, the ascent into madness has stopped, but I didn’t lose anything this week, either. My general mood this week was good (except for one blip in the middle, but family and friends saw to it that I didn’t dwell on matters) so I didn’t even feel like going over [...]

In Which Fatso Is Free

When I was walking home from Spinning the other night, walking in and out of Sainsbury’s to pick up some liver to make more pâté (my latest hobby and obsession – I’m still annoyed that I can’t pick up pork liver in either ASDA or Sainsbury’s! Gotta check Morrison’s, I suppose…), a thought occurred to [...]

In Which Fatso Talks about Georgia Davis

You’ve either heard of Georgia Davis, or you haven’t. Georgia Davis has the unfortunate title of Britain’s Fattest Teenager. She reached 33 stone (462lbs) when she was only 15, got a scholarship to the Wellspring Academy (a weight-loss camp) in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, USA, and lost more than 14 stone (196lbs) [...]

In Which Fatso Gets Back Into The Beat

I was supposed to be going back to my usual Zumba class last week; it was Gillian’s first week back at that class since giving birth in March – our first class since January. Last week, what happened? I got hit with The World’s Worst Headache™. Last Tuesday was a Jubilee Bank Holiday, to make [...]

Weekly Weigh-in #24: June 10, 2012

+2lbs 24st 8lbs(344lbs/156.04kg) (-3lbs/1.36kg) Obviously whatever I’m doing isn’t working. I’m going to have to look at what I’m doing, change some things up. Thing is, I’ve been working like a fiend this week. I’ve hardly sat down, except to take a ten minute break every half hour because my back’s been killing me. I’ve [...]

Product Review: FullFast Sublingual Spray

The FullFast company were kind enough to send me a sample of their product in exchange for a review. I used FullFast for almost the full month of May – it arrived on May 4th – and it lasted me until June 2nd. First off, an explanation: FullFast is a sublingual spray, meaning you spray [...]
