Y’all will be saying what have I got to worry about, but hear me out. When I first moved to the UK from NZ I was a trim toned 11st. I had been in physically active jobs (and the Airforce before that), I had completed a self-build house on 3 acres with ¾ acres of lawn to look after, and had an active outdoor lifestyle with plenty of trail-riding etc, and I rarely drink alcohol. It wasn’t long in the UK before I had jumped up to 12st - a more sedentary job and lifestyle, and age played it’s part. I’ve also a sweet’n’pastry tooth, and someone at work has always got cake/biscuits/chokkies in. It was a slow, steady increase up to Jan last year when I topped out at 13st-4 - which doesn’t sound like much to some, but it’s 20% none the less. I’m now back down to 12st, and a major contributor to that was having a substantial project on the go - I’m so busy and immersed with my camper truck build (to the wife’s chagrin) that I forget to snack like I do when I’m bored. Also, the cost of living at the moment, means we are less likely to have random snacks in our weekly shop. So I guess that’s my recommendation/contribution - have a long term project or hobby that gives you agency and activity, and takes your brain somewhere away from superfluous food and drink, and mental fog (and in my case, home-sickness). I have always got some sort of project or pastime on the go in the garage - just don't neglect the missus, or a few extra pounds will be the least of your worries!

Hope you are OK and looks like it's time to practise your fibre glass repair skills!

I'll be over and in the westy if weathers OK 👍

See if I can get over, still a bit of a trek for me. Won’t be in Westy though, not yet!

See you there can’t wait 😜 been too long. Not sure if I’ll be in westfield as weather doesn’t look great 👍

All places have been filled, no more space available. See you on the night!

Two more is perfect , that’s all the cars we need I think

First day off with dry roads for a good while. Couldn't resist a quick blast
