Lardwatch #31 (Rest In Peace)
Rest in peace? Whaddaya mean, rest in peace? Let me explain, gentle reader. You see, yet again I am reporting only another small weight gain of a pound (but that’s very good considering Paris and the lake of Budweiser I drank at our Halloween party last week) – next week no doubt I shall be reporting another small weight loss of a pound and the week after that I shall probably report another weight gain of a pound and after that… I feel that if you are becoming as bored as I am (and Mrs K is) of reading about this on-going pound ping-pong, instead of massively motivating weight-loss, followed by a best-selling book, book tour and maybe a workout DVD, then it is time to end Lardwatch. I cannot lose the weight I want as my commitments make it impossible to take regular exercise and I don’t want to give up what few foodie treats I do have. And I think that if I’m keeping at around 12 stone, that’s a whole lot better than 12 and a half or indeed 13 stone. So until I launch a new weight-loss regime anytime, this is the final Lardwatch of the series, folks.
However, if you want to follow somebody’s weight-watching progress, check out Tom Haczewski’s brilliant One Fat Git, his innovative way to help him shed pounds. I should’ve mentioned this fantastic site weeks ago when it first launched – an experiment in (anti) social weight-loss, he invites readers to leave comments, the nastier the better, to spur him on to to lose weight. It’s a beautifully designed site and really funny too.

Lardwatch has become a national institution. Can you just drop it? Doesn’t it have to go through the proper channels. Has it been put to the Prime Minister or indeed the Queen. Shocking!!!
