Beer, Breakfasts and back breaking barrels

With the NorJam 2010 event firmly behind me, where I managed bars for the adult volunteers, it was going to be interesting to see whether the physical work of building the bars, shifting the barrels and all the walking involved, would balance out the regular full English breakfasts, and coffee and cakes that became a habit for the mid afternoon breaks.

Add to that, the "essential" beer tasting to ensure good quality product sales to my customers, and a gain was surely on the cards.

Taking into account the four pound loss that led into the event, I am pleased to announce that that loss has been maintained over the last two weeks. No gain, no loss.

So with 7 weeks to go before the target date, I have a net loss of 34lbs with only 9lbs to reach the target.

The final push will be difficult - but I believe achievable.
