I had a weigh in earlier today & to my amazement I've actually lost almost a stone. As you should see above I've done a comparison picture but I can't see much difference. I'm also not entirely sure I matched the picture dimensions(do'h!) but in future I shall be more careful. </p> <p>My diet has been better the past week but this month I plan to knock it up a notch & hit the weights with a bit of aerobics for good measure. </p> <p>I'm also regularly cycling 18 miles a week despite the cries of pain from my bikes rear wheel. And why is it that some motorists seem to speed up at roundabouts when they see cyclists coming? Either that or they don't see cyclists at all. </p> <p>Anyway, now for the quote of the week : </p> <p><strong>"You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine"</p> <p>Tommy Cooper</strong></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/02/03/in_the_pigg_house~1675037/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>cyclistsdietthe-piggweek-4tpp-updatepigghttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/02/03/in_the_pigg_house~1675037/#commentshttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/25/quote_of_the_week~1621486/tag:thepigg.blog.co.uk,2007-01-25:/2007/01/25/quote_of_the_week~1621486/Thu, 25 Jan 2007 19:41:14 +0100 <p>Today's not been entirely bad diet wise. I've managed to eat 3 portions of my 5 a day and no sweet foods so far. Now if I can only keep this up for the next 6 months...</p> <p>And the quote of the week is : </p> <p><strong>“'You are drunk Sir Winston, you are disgustingly drunk. 'Yes, Mrs. Braddock, I am drunk.

Unable to cook pretty much anything unless it's nuked I couldn't bare the thought of anything healthy(it just all tastes so unexciting to me!) so resorted to <a href="http://www.takeawayfever.com.">http://www.takeawayfever.com.</a> </p> <p>Food aside I've uploaded a picture of my father for all to see. He's hit that age where things start falling out & I think it's quite funny. I do however realise that baldness can be hereditary which is why I got the Santa's wig. </p> <p>Lastly I just wanted to add another site I found...interesting.

I believe the cycling is helping me not to get much bigger but I feel next month will be the one where I actually start making some serious effort. </p> <p>I also had another idea on how to solve obesity(it came to me in a dream - recreated for your pleasure above)...simply put all the bad foods on tiny islands forcing overweight people to swim out to them!

I'm doubting the scientific value in this because to be honest I've not been dieting at all...unless there's a new chinese & pizza diet that I'm unaware of?<br> However, due to work commitments I've managed to clock up 18 miles a week on the bicycle. Any willing sponsors for Le Tour de France??? You may mock, or even laugh but last night I was whizzing blissfully along on my trusty silver steed at an amazing 31.8mph & I have the electronic proof to prove it.<br> Now if only I can learn to run faster than 3mph... </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/13/pigg_plan_update~1548452/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>silver-steedbicycleupdatepiggpigg-planthe-pigghttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/13/pigg_plan_update~1548452/#commentshttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/09/quote_of_the_week~1534377/tag:thepigg.blog.co.uk,2007-01-09:/2007/01/09/quote_of_the_week~1534377/Tue, 09 Jan 2007 19:13:25 +0100 <p>As an attempt to tie in the quote with the time of year I've decided to find one on depression as a lot of us do suffer around this time...or is it just me?

I hear the screams of "Noooo" but choose to ignore them. In the interest of science I will take more tomorrow. I don't think it'll show any change as I've really not been dieting at all. As I'm in a transitional period between jobs I think it's a matter of establishing a routine. On the plus side I did cycle a whole 6 miles this week.</p> <p>I've also come up with a rather splendid idea to solve the worlds hunger & obesity problems all at the same time. Simple plan really, every 6 months all the starving people in the world swap their lives with all the obese people in the world. Then 6 months later they all swap back. I call it "The End Obunger Project"...new name ideas welcome. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/07/pigged_off~1525092/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>pigged-offpiggthe-pigghungerdietobeseobungerhttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/07/pigged_off~1525092/#commentshttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/04/piggressed_do_you_see_what_i_did_there~1511789/tag:thepigg.blog.co.uk,2007-01-04:/2007/01/04/piggressed_do_you_see_what_i_did_there~1511789/Thu, 04 Jan 2007 01:43:43 +0100 <p>I found out earlier today my girlfriend is a cheat...so any girls that fancy an ever soo slightly overwieght guy who looks pretty damn fine in a santas beard leave me a comment!

In order to rectify this I’ve decided to create this blog/diary of my weight loss. I’ll be updating pictures once a week but due to space issues probably only keeping them up for a month at a time. I hope anyone unlucky enough to stumble upon this page will at least have a chuckle at them.<br> And to add a bit of thought for this first post I’ve added a comment about a film I saw a few weeks ago posted by a very right and obviously intelligent woman. </p> <p>“It blows my mind how many people find it incomprehensible that the fat guy is the nice guy. Heaven forbid a pretty woman take an interest in someone who isn't as pretty as she is. Do you people know why there is such a severe obesity problem in this country? You. That's right, I said it. The problem is not that the fat people in America are too lazy and content to lose weight, the problem is their neighbours, friends, co-workers, etc. look down on them and assume they will never amount to anything because they're overweight. After enough abuse from society anyone will just submit to the pressure and hide in their old, bad habits. "Well if they're so upset about being fat why don't they just change?" Oh it's that easy is it? What are your vices? Smoking? Drinking? Watching too much TV? You change. Right now. Just give it up, you know it's bad for you, what's so hard about that? No, you don't get any support. Everyone thinks they're better than you, why would they want to help you?<br> I'm sorry about this rant, I don't normally go off like this. It just amazes me how many shallow, superficial and intolerant people exist in this world. I apologize if I offend anyone, but this drives me NUTS!! Personally, I was glad that she picked the fat guy. Now if Hollywood could only pair a hot man with an overweight woman.…”</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/01/the_beginning_of_the_beginning~1499820/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>fatpigghumourthe-piggfunnyweight-losshttp://thepigg.blog.co.uk/2007/01/01/the_beginning_of_the_beginning~1499820/#comments
