Operation Whippet
Right - following on from YD FIT CLUB of 2007

As some of us seem to be outgrowing dry suits, weight belts, undersuits etc...Post Christmas diets and exercise will soon reduce us to the YD Scuba Whippets

For me :-
Zero booze on school nights and none at all over January
Carol Vorderman Detox Diet Book (is that an anagram?) dusted off
Juicer dug out from the depths of the kitchen cupboard (carrots, Apples, grapefruit)
Back to the gym and pool and sauna

Weigh in on Boxing day and off we go

didn't operation whippet used to be the trip name for the annual YD farnes gig ?

well I will have a knackered liver if I drink all of the alcohol I have in the cupboard before end of january so it looks like a slow start for me although a journey of a 100 miles begins with 1 footstep.

Started Diet
2 Jan - supermarket shop for loads of fresh fruit and veg..juicer dug out of cupboard...Carol Vorderman book dusted down and off we go.

Not encouraged to find out from an online health site that 10st 10lb and 5ft 6in equals BMI of 24% and therefore ideal weight for my height...so my man boobs must be offset by skinny ankles???

No wheat, dairy, meat, fat, sugar, alcohol for 30 days and back to the gym to turn flab into firm flab!!

Boxing day was 15st 12lb
2nd Jan am now 15st 6lb
Plan is, lots of steamed veg and any meat will be grilled, loads of fruit, skimmed milk instead of semi skimmed, no more cheese, low fat spread, and no carbs after lunch!!! walk/jog/weights every evening and maybe some mornings. As I get fitter and lose some of the belly I'll extend the exercise program but need to get some weight off first. I don't drink a lot but will cut that down too.
FWIW BMI of 29
