    Whomever manufactures the Mr. Tickle mug will soon see an increase in profits to a degree that it will impact the GDP of the exporting country. This was a perfect Friday afternoon laugh!

    I've been logging my weight daily for some time and plotting it on an excel chart. I know that my weight fluctuates so I decided to log daily so I could see patterns that emerge - it would help me do the right thing day after day.

    I added my calories to help with pattern recognition after a few weeks
    Then I added exercise
    Then my water consumption.
    Then my macros instead of just calories
    Then categorised exercise as weights vs. cardio
    Then quality of sleep - then quantity

    After several months of logging I've concluded that:
    - protein shakes and cardio on tuesdays lead to a weight loss as long as I have less than 7 hours of restless sleep.
    - however if I have brocolli or it's a full mooon then my weight goes up.
    - If I lift heavy on a Tuesday then I will gain weight the next day but lose weight on Friday as long as I don't have scrambled eggs on Wednesday - having them on Thursday is ok as long as my chicken salad has cherry tomatoes.
    - 4 cups of tea a day are ok as long as they're from my Mr Tickle mug, if I have them from the blue mug then I'll gain weight.

    I think I need to put this down in a secrets of weight loss book, this stuff is gold dust, I could make a fortune from this scientific research.

    bwahahahaha! :)) brilliant findings!

    Haha, I love this.

    I'll be buying your book for sure. I have a purple water bottle and a black water bottle that I use for my workouts. I'd like to know which color would be better for my fitness goals.

    Pre-order DVD - check
    Send email outlining my very great disappointment there is not a Mr. Tickle Mug Crack Gap chapter.
