The results are in...



James has the tough task of going through what are some amazing transformations to pick his winner(s)


This was my first challenge and despite what the outcome is I am a winner.. 


I was always going win.


Thats a bold statement to make isn’t it?! 


Calling myself a winner when so many others have done incredibly well. 


But hear me out...


My weight is something I had come to terms with and accepted the fact I was overweight. 


I was a happy go lucky person, I’d laugh with friends. Confident and generally happy how I was.. or so I thought. 


I started my journey back in November, stumbled across James’s podcasts and then took to JSA.


This challenge has given me a target.. something to focus my attention on and a reason to learn and educate myself.


Overcoming so many fears during the past 12 weeks and managing to complete so many NSV along the way. 


But the main reason I am a winner is that only last week I considered the fact I may not actually hit my bali goal.


I may actually fail.


And for the first time ever the thought of failing didn’t get to me. 


Reason being is that when I look in the mirror I now no longer look in disgust.

I look and see so many changes, I see a work in progress.  


My mindset is something that has changed and improved so much in the past 12 weeks. 


I’ve learn’t that its ok to be on a journey and not already be at my finish point. 


James’s platform is a barrage of knowledge backed up by an outstanding community of like minded people that are happy to help. 


But the thing I take away from James the most is that no one is perfect, and its ok not to be. 


The added bonus... I hit my Bali goal! 31.5lbs lost

Weight-loss Surgery

​ This is difficult writing for a number of reasons. Mainly because by logging into blogging apps it has unearthed my previous blogs. These blogs were at a time I was much happier with my weight. Still very much over weight but very different to where I am in life now!  Never the less I will continue to write and document this process.  My weight has spiralled again, the heaviest I have ever been, and now I intend to do something about it on a more physical basis. In 18 days time I fly to Egypt to have bariatric surgery.  I have decided to document the journey and one day may post it for all to see, This is me, this is my journey

Egypt Day One

So I’m writing this while waiting for the aurgery. Im due to go down at 11:30 local time,  So yeaterday was travel day, we decided to leave home around 1am when our families had gone to bed. This was so as I wasnt to tired to drivining at the scheduled 4am we had planned.  We were at heathrow for 3am and ready to go. The airport was fine a little boring but what do you expect when your 6 hours early for your flight!  Then to Egypt! Even as we came into land the country looked old school. Now once we were picked up, the drive to the hospital was an experience! For a couple of says before coming I had this fear that I may die. If it was going to happen it would be this drive! The roads are crazy! No such thing as lanes or order! Every body just weaves in and out depending how fast your going!  Fortunately we survived! Emad was lovely, he checked us in to the hospital and took us down to the laboratory for blood tests. Then accompanied a porter to take us to our rooms. ...

Daddies day delight

Always time for Dad... Sometimes I to remind myself if that! Today I have adored, woken by my kids. Breakfast out as a family and then visiting loved ones Even taking a trip to the local cremitorium to lay flowers for those no longer with us With all that said and done I had to remind myself to take the time for me. Getting to the gym andhitting that work out Turned out to be a really good session.. plenty ofsweat, and tears Thats right.... tears!  During my slog on the treadmill I doubted myself, I had forgotten my Why!  I was ready to give up, walk away and make an excuse. But the I remembered... I’ve commited to something, I promised myself to create a better me. To work hard and be proudof my achievements!  So how did I pull myself through? I’ve recently set myself a target, not a weightloss target but something to achieve!  I’m going to do a super sprint triathlon 400m of swimming, 10km of cycling and then 2.5km of running All in one go, at one event This pushed...
