… I am now officially no longer a fat bastard According to the scales at the gym, which I trust, I weigh almost exactly 13 stone¹ with all my gym kit on. This means that, nekkid, I would weight 12 stone²! This is the upper end of my new Happy Weight which means an end to the severe All Salad diet and the beginning of the slightly less severe Some Salad diet. I celebrated with a BBQ, ice cream, bag of chocolate, large fizzy drink and more ice cream³. Hopefully, after all that, the next time I weigh myself I won’t be back in the fat bastard zone and, therefore, back on the all salad diet. All being well in 5 weeks time I’ll be bang on perfect weight and can go on the Very Little Salad diet

¹International and metric readers feel free to use Google to convert stone to lbs/kgs

³Not all in one day I should point out, and there was a gym trip and two games of squash⁴ to counter it

⁴More on that in a bit
