Weaver has already made the suggestion I was about to type. Yes, this is a walking city. On the Manhattan grid, as you probably know, 20 north-south blocks equal a mile. Easy peasy to stroll and window shop or look at architecture (trying to avert one's eyes from horrid Trump facades.) Do keep me posted on this travel plan.
I'm going to assume the Prof and you set this up as a motivator, not a power play - and motivation is a good thing. You'll be going no matter what the scale says, I'm pretty sure :)
Just concentrate on going to New York with or without the weight judging by the photo of you giving the speech you look fine just the way you are if you want to loose weight do it for yourself not because of what some one else says.
I had a deal like that with my better half ..goal weight for an MGB! I got it :) and still have it but lost the waistline over time...it's harder to keep off than lose IMHO
You could probably get yourself a very nice patchwork quilt while you are there .
ReplyDeleteThat's a worthy incentive!
ReplyDeleteyou deserve the trip regardless!
ReplyDeleteToo bloody right!
DeleteHope you slapped him for that. I'd tell him I might let you take me if you'll install a new slipper tub.
ReplyDeleteWith a rounded top!
DeleteI have to agree with Donna Baker.
ReplyDeleteGet power-walking there - lose all but half a stone before you go and lose the rest running round Central Park every morning.
ReplyDeleteMotivation is good -- buy yeah, I hope he'd take you no matter what!
ReplyDeleteIts been a few years since we last went, i adore new york......i'd chop my left leg off to lose the weight

ReplyDeleteI'm getting excited at the thought of going again
DeleteShould be a piece of cake.....err....anyway if you come I hope you visit Washington, DC...we will take you to tea!
ReplyDeleteAnd a scotch egg?
DeleteHow Prof loves you!!! Prof wants you be around for a long long time.
ReplyDeleteIf im not, i'll haunt him
DeleteCarrot and stick, I see.
ReplyDeleteKeep eating the carrots, John. Chris will whip himself into shape by wielding the stick.

Awesome! See if he'll take you to comic con for that :)

ReplyDeleteI am really, really looking forward to the posts about the trip. Because you WILL be going.
ReplyDeleteI am only 1 hour from NYC by train; I would be honoured to meet you and the prof whilst you are here!

ReplyDeleteYou are great as you are.. I'll take you if you loose weight could be considered an insult.
