Well done. Any tips you've found helpful? I'm trying desperately to find the motivation but in my current situation it's hard to just get through the day.
Well, at least I can fart without bending over. The latter is getting too difficult anyway. Yesterday in Waitrose I dropped a packet of Patna rice onto the floor and rather than simply pick it up had to get down on my hands and knees - khaki-shorted arse in air - then hoist myself up again using the shelves as leverage. What a sight! Though at least it was accomplished WITHOUT farting - I think.
Even at age 80, my sweet MIL could easily get down on the floor. As she said, "Getting up isn't pretty, but given time and something to hang on to, I can do it!"
Raybeard ... I will be 78 next month, farting is just part of life and, if we are lucky, they smell like roses! LOL I have 2 replaced knees, so I can't even get down on them. I would have to have help getting back up!
Go for it, John! It is the smallest most significant victories, the sort no-one ve r tells you about, that make all the differencd. And most of all let the inner you know the difference. Well done.
Had to look it up ... 8.3kg = 18.2983677613lbs! I never did know and still don't know the metrics ... thank goodness for Google and the Web! OMG ... just shy of 20 lbs off ... CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🎈🎉 It's true ... the older we get, the more difficult it is to drop the weight, unless you are sick and on the way out of living altogether!!! And, we sure don't want that!!!
Wow! I won't ask what the time period of your weight loss is but that's a great result. And I think you'd appreciate it much more if, like Joanne above, you used lbs rather than kgs. Congratulations!
Well done John !! It's getting beyond 5lbs without giving up is hard because no one notices 5 lbs but going on 20lbs everyone tends to cheer you on still do it for yourself not someone else.
Very well done sir!
ReplyDeleteGood job!
ReplyDeleteWell done. Any tips you've found helpful? I'm trying desperately to find the motivation but in my current situation it's hard to just get through the day.
ReplyDeleteGreat Work. It is amazing how much better you feel when you are eating healthier. I battle the bulge too.
ReplyDeletegreat job!
ReplyDeleteWell done John, when you get into a pattern it becomes slightly easier. Don't go too far!
ReplyDeleteWay to go!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It is not easy and you are doing great!
ReplyDeleteThat's brilliant, well done. Xx
ReplyDeleteGood News Indeed
ReplyDeleteWell, at least I can fart without bending over. The latter is getting too difficult anyway.

ReplyDeleteSo sorry ... but I had to laugh at this ... not in a mean way, however, I could just picture it all!! You are lucky if you didn't fart after all that!
DeleteYes, it was funny, Marcia - though for me only in hindsight. When JayGee gets to my present age in 15 years' time he'll know how it feels. :-)
DeleteEven at age 80, my sweet MIL could easily get down on the floor. As she said, "Getting up isn't pretty, but given time and something to hang on to, I can do it!"
DeleteHugs!

DeleteI'd never have guessed, Marcia, but now I know what well could be in store for me too just round the corner. [Gulp].
DeleteAnd hugs to you too, Barbara Anne. 'Ta' for your visit.
Well done, Sir! It gets harder each time I need to do it, but at the moment I'm loosing the battle. So, VERY well done!
ReplyDeleteWonderful Job!

Well done John.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations !
ReplyDeleteAs Cro said once you get into a routine.
Well done! It must just make you feel so much better about everything too.
ReplyDeleteWell done. xx
ReplyDeleteWell done. It's not easy, but you've obviously found your groove. xx
ReplyDeleteALL good reasons to be proud. That’s a lot of potatoes!
ReplyDeleteAlmost a stone and a half! Fantastic going, John. You have inspired me to start losing my lockdown chocolate biscuit weight - thank you! x
ReplyDeleteMatron pulliing down the front? Elucidate.
ReplyDeleteHopefully John's front not her front, but one never knows.
DeleteWell done , but now I have a mental picture of Hattie Jacques adjusting your uniform .
ReplyDeleteThat's brilliant John, losing weight is a mammoth task and gets bloomin harder the older you get. Jean. x
ReplyDeleteThat's very well done..gives me a good example to follow! (Only 3 kg down so far here)
ReplyDeleteIt does make getting up hills easier too, cycling or walking!!
Go for it, John! It is the smallest most significant victories, the sort no-one ve r tells you about, that make all the differencd. And most of all let the inner you know the difference. Well done.
ReplyDeletegood for you, that's great progress xx
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine you not farting.
ReplyDeleteSee below
DeleteI always thought that old age brought on uncontrolled farting. Maybe you will go back to it.
ReplyDeleteI never really left it…pressure farts have been succeeded by 24/7 farts…..a product of eating a stir fry daily
DeleteExcellent progress!
ReplyDeleteI so badly need to lose some poundage! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteYou are always the perfect you.
ReplyDeleteWell done chuck. It takes determination and self control and you clearly have that.
ReplyDeleteYou will soon be a slip of a thing John-but be careful your loose trousers don't surprise you and slip to your ankles univitedly x
ReplyDeleteLol I’ll. NEVER be a slip of a thing xx
DeleteApplause, applause! You perhaps can also take a bow without farting!
ReplyDeleteHugs!
Had to look it up ... 8.3kg = 18.2983677613lbs! I never did know and still don't know the metrics ... thank goodness for Google and the Web!
ReplyDeleteOMG ... just shy of 20 lbs off ... CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🎈🎉
It's true ... the older we get, the more difficult it is to drop the weight, unless you are sick and on the way out of living altogether!!! And, we sure don't want that!!!
Bravo!
ReplyDeleteGood on you! In more ways than one.
ReplyDeleteThat is great. As long as you are feeling good and eating healthy, that is what matters most.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant. good for you
ReplyDeleteWell done John x
ReplyDeleteI don't know what 8.3kgs means ... but it still sounds pretty good to me. Congrats!
ReplyDelete18 pounds
DeleteOf ugly fat
ReplyDeleteSpeaking about yourself?
DeleteRude! Keep your opinions to yourself anonymous.
DeleteYou Are ridiculous-I'm quite sure no one here is interested in your twaddle troll-so just Go away
DeleteGo go go! 14lbs down here :-)
ReplyDeleteAn achievement. That's going on 20 lbs for those of us who disdain kg's. That's two clothing sizes, or one front pull.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! - good on you John😃
ReplyDeleteWow! I won't ask what the time period of your weight loss is but that's a great result. And I think you'd appreciate it much more if, like Joanne above, you used lbs rather than kgs. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteWell done John. My downfall in the summer here in Canada 🇨🇦is having an ice cream cone often. I have put o 15 pounds of Covid weight.
ReplyDeleteWell done John !! It's getting beyond 5lbs without
ReplyDeletegiving up is hard because no one notices 5 lbs but going on 20lbs everyone tends to cheer you on still do it for yourself not someone else.
Fabulous effort, well done you. Bet you are chuffed.
ReplyDeleteJo in Auckland
Well done John . . .
ReplyDeleteFeeling cheer sounds great too!
