The fat boy antics continue. I’ve consistently lost a kilo a week for the past 6 weeks and actually it’s going pretty well. Trying some intermittent fasting (i.e. nothing after 7pm and brekkie doesn’t land until 11am) and getting in a walk/run/cycle during that fast. Going for about 1,300kcals as a baseline, topped up with whatever I’ve burned that day and even on a rest day that gets you porridge and a banana for breakfast, a decent sarnie for lunch and you still have 6-700 kcals to burn on dinner.

Just read Mickey 7 (which is great) and they get budgeted kcals on their little beachhead colony as pay. I wonder if that’ll work in this house…

We’ve got a little holiday booked later in the year and it’s occurred to me that literally the only thing about being away that makes me annoyed/fidgety is not playing guitar for a week. I am problem solving this. Don’t actually want to take a travel guitar with me (I think) so have started a project to make a Risa plank-a-lele fit into the Rothco M-51 engineer’s bag I use for travelling. Lighter tuners (GraphTech Tune-a-lele plastic rotary ones are the current candidate) and maybe round the ends off it a bit with a sander.
