A short account from one of our members, David. He’s smashed through his 15% and shows no sign of slowing down. 💪

“I thought i would share a little. I went from this to this. 15 and half stone to just under 26 stone. I started training for the London marathon. When I ran that i was around 20 stone. I am currently 17.9 on my last man vs fat weigh in. Whilst I spend the majority of the week in pain after running around on a Monday night( due to old injuries) I can see so much benefit and can see the change in my habits. If I could get back down to 15 and half stone I would be so happy. But I'm more than happy with the progress made so far.”

Week 3 - CUP WEEK!

What a great start to the season. We've hit 17.8% so far this season after only three weeks. With many people on their summer holidays this is a really impressive figure.

Results -

Man T***y 7 - 7 Inter Row Z
Borussia Munchen Flapjack 8 - 8 O.B. City

Really close scores on both games! It was the work done off the pitch that contributed to these scores. Well done all!

Hat trick heroes!

Paul Hutchinson, Robbie Jalal, Mark Houston, Rod Walsh.

The percentage club! Some big numbers posted here.

In week 2 we had Mark Houston reach 15%. This is so impressive and Mark's renewed focus and determination is really inspiring to see. Mark commented last night that he got into his original blue shirt from when he started his Man v Fat journey a few years ago. These moments are the ones that inspire us to keep going. Well done Mark!

Noah Hutchinson sped towards his 5% award in the same week. Noah has had such a fantastic start to his career with Man v Fat. Consistency is key and Noah is really focussed. Top work Noah, keep it up!

Last night, and week 3 saw some big awards too! Rich Berry smashed his 5% award. Rich has really been switched on and very nearly hit his 5% at the end of last season. On towards your 10% by the end of the season Rich! You can do it!

This next award almost goes without mentioning. We've all seen the results in-person. Dave Chapman smashed his 30% award. The first one we've given out as a league. This is absolutely incredible work. Dave is our poster boy for the league and someone who we can all aspire to imitate. Well done Dave, you've fast become a legend of the league!

Week 10 round up!

Last week will be remembered as the Dave Chapman week. Not only did he lose 3.9kg but he also hit his 25% weight loss. Under my tenure as coach it's the first I've given out and I'm confident it won't be the last. A quarter of his weight! An unreal effort. Dave has made some amazing changes to his behaviours and relationships with food. I was inspired by a recent post he shared where he chose a healthy meal option in his hotel whilst away with work. Rewind a few seasons ago and this wouldn't have always been the case. It can be so hard to make the right choices in those moments when a takeaway is the easy and stress free option. Dave's approach inspires me and hopefully you all too.

Honorable mention to Paul Hutchinson with a 3.8kg loss and Ben Kidd with a 3.0kg loss. Truthfully, the list of special mentions could go on and on. Week 10 was a fantastic week across the board and I'm incredibly proud of the lads for the effort they have made.

This effort has resulted in another league record being smashed. A whopping 15.9kg lost in a week. This is outstanding. It brings us up to a total of 95.8kg for the season. Amazing stuff.
