"Weight n See"

Many years ago in fact 30 to be precise I published a book with well known Nutritionist Catherine Saxelby and "Life Be in it".

The "Weight n See" booklet was based on the excellent nutritional information provided by Catherine and a system I had used to lose weight in an effort to be the fittest and leanest I had ever been IN MY LIFE!!  I had set myself a very ambitious goal as a squash professional and there was no way I could achieve it unless I lost a LOT of weight.  It was quite simple really, I would weigh in every day and plot the result on a large sheet of graph paper.  As with most graphs it had it's ups and downs but the most important result of all was whether I could reach my goal or not.  The good news is I did.

A few days ago I came across my last four precious copies of the booklet that I had tucked away in a very safe place.  The timing was fantastic as once again I have set myself another ambitious goal of climbing the Eureka Tower in November with my friend Debbie Shiell.  Now I'm by no means same shape I was way back in those days so once again I have to lose MANY kilos if I'm going to be successful with the climb.  

Well the good news is, one of those four copies is now hanging on the wall and it will stay there until I achieve my goal.  

When the booklet was published in 1985 many thousands were sold in newsagents throughout Australia.  In reading through the contents again I realise that not a lot has changed in all those years.  Healthy diet and plenty of exercise and you can't go wrong.
