      23st9lb is 150,14kg or 331lbs

      Cycling 15miles of the bat like that seems a bit much to start with but hey, if you think you can keep it up, have fun with it

      I average a 3-5 lb drop each week doing insanity original and been on that that streak since the 5th of july. Way to go with the drop! I'm sure there's more to come
