    Its a bit lame, but if it works it works!

    I like looking at the fact I'll have sorted my health out and my fitness will have improved as opposed to focussing on how I look, because, at the end of the day, its what's inside that counts.

    I just like it because I never feel like a pound a week is going to ever add up but when you look at it in those terms, it really does.....
