Well – my weight has reduced from 14 stone (January) to 12 stone 10 pounds – my aim is to reach 12.5 stone in the next week or 2. I can now fit in to a size 34’’ trouser whereas prior to the weight loss I was convinced all 34’’ where of a small fitting. My knees have taken a pounding but I’ve been on the Cod Liver oil to aid joints and cartilage, a poster at the gym sings the praises of Gluto something phate for added cartilage renewal, I’ll have to investigate.
