			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few years ago, I looked at how unspeakably lardy I&#8217;d become and resolved to do something about it.  What was going to be difficult at 30 was going to be far harder at 40 and impossible at 50, so I needed to get my finger out and stop eating the pies.</p>
<p>If you remember that far back, it ended up with me losing 30kg.  I didn&#8217;t feel like I looked particularly different, but I did notice I had a lot more energy, and I was able to buy clothes from normal shops for the first time in years. My weight bounced back a little, but nothing particularly worrying.   I was happy, and got on with my life.  </p>
<p>Which is why I didn&#8217;t count on the goalposts shifting.  For some reason, being smaller than I was is no longer enough.  I&#8217;m not sure if it&#8217;s being down in London. where there are a lot more Beautiful People, or if it&#8217;s that my eyes have reset to something approaching normal, but where I am isn&#8217;t good enough any more.  I&#8217;m still right at the top of the sizes in the shops &#8211; OK, it&#8217;s just that the shops I&#8217;m going now to have a considerably smaller spread of sizes, but that&#8217;s not the point.</p>
<p>We were at a friend&#8217;s BBQ this summer, and I was horrified when I saw the photographs.  In my head, I remembered how much I&#8217;d lost and thought as myself as OKsized now.  And yes, compared to how I was, I&#8217;m in great shape.  But, I&#8217;m still lardy and oh, did those photos ram that home.  BetterThanItWas isn&#8217;t good enough.  Now I want RightWeightForHeight, which means losing 15kg.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve been on holiday this week and eaten a hell of a lot of lard.  That stops NOW.  And it&#8217;s back to the gym to try and finally get myself running for more than 1km at a time.  Wish me luck.  I suspect this time is going to be hard.</p>
