You're obsessed man.

Nice work though. Will be interesting to see how this compares to your Ed30.

It's relatively easy - reduce portion sizes.  Eat less.  Keep exercising.  The weight WILL come off.

Don't view it as a mystery - it's a simple less in = need to remove fat to keep running.

Be prepared to feel a bit hungry and a touch wobbly at times though.  :grin:

I lost 1 1/2 stone over the summer.  Put nearly 3/4 of a stone back on in the last couple of months though.  Took my eye off the ball and enjoy food too much.  :undecided:

Weight's where it's at for human and vehicle performance.  :cool:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I simply stopped eating chocolate, went to diet carbonated drinks, started using low calorie sugar and weight train for 20 mins a day on a multipurpose exercise machine. The only thing I miss is the chocolate!!!

Fitting on Wednesday when I have the day off. Popping the alloys on tomorrow before work. Pics to follow. :cool:

Weighed the car today on the works weighbridge with the spare in and half a tank of fuel. Weighed exactly 1,200kg. Target is to knock 100 kg off that.  :smiley:
