    may need to stop training/logging. my mam told me not to get as big as i was before i got sick last christmas (though i'm heavier now...), cos apparently i was too big, and had 'thunder thighs' and had looked like i was 'on stee-roids'. and that if i'm going for job interviews i don't want to look 'obese and unhealthy'.

    damn. game over.
