Jeffley correct me if im wrong but didnt you mock noone because he prepaired for 2 days for going to a pool party but hou are dieting for 8weeks for a holliday in fucking egypt or where it was and you are almost 50 isnt that worse? 
Im dieting because I was carrying some excess weight, sure Im going on holiday, does anyone want to look like a doughnut in a pair of shorts?
It was also in response to all the bro-science that was flying around the forum in relation to a diet book.
Im simply showing that at 48 years of age its possible to get in decent shape without going to extremes.
I hope when people see the results I have achieved in 8 weeks it gives them an alternative idea than simply not eating for days on end.
