david's college days part twenty two
It was now the New Year, David and Sarah had both put on a few pounds but David didn't really care what size he was seeing as the fat had saved his life (see chapter eighteen) but Sarah did and cared a lot.
David was now getting a bit lazy if it was too hard he would do it but only if there was a coke a cola afterwards and if he was working hard he would sweat a lot and be out of breath, and when he had only moved one thing he'd sit down and say I'll do it in a minute which soon turned into tomorrow or next week I promise.
Sarah too she had been eating to her heart's content over Christmas and eating lots and lots of unhealthy foods and she too was looking a bit fat around the edges but she never noticed until the day she weighed herself which was a Sunday.
In the afternoon Sarah weighed herself to see if she had put on any weight on over Christmas, she had gone up a dress size and was wondering if she had put on weight, getting on to the scales she let out a huge scream, David rushed up thinking Sarah had hurt herself or found a big spider, he found Sarah crying on the toilet seat and she said this;
"David I've put on 4 stone since I meet you"
"Well what's (pant) wrong with that?" he said just out of breath and on the scales
"You don't understand I've been pigging out over Christmas and eating too much, you've put on Wight as well, look".
David looked at the scales they said 16 stone David had also gained 4 stone,
"But how?" David said now looking sad and with his breath back but still panting a bit,
"You pack shelves and do a lot of walking around the store all I do is sit at the till"
"But that's it I haven't done any since we left for Christmas break that mouth of missing shelf stacking and all that walking plus we haven't been skip rummaging for ages" she cried some more and David comforted her.
It was now time to get into shape, David had gained 4 stone and Sarah had gained 4 stone and now they had to get down to their original weight witch for Sarah was 10 stone and David down to 10 or 13 stone as well just to get a bit fitter and not be fat.
So on the first day of losing weight the first thing they did was throw away any left over Christmas foods but it didn't go to waste no, it was placed on the main table in the staff room in the pound store any opened food they cooked and gave to the poor place where they had stayed.
All the people who worked there loved the food and thanked David and Sarah seeing as the food there was either too big or a multi pack.
If David felt peckish he would grab a quick bite but Sarah would come in and count the number of biscuits and treats and packets of chirps, if any where missing Sarah would give David a telling off, after asking everyone else just in case because sometimes people don't like to say.
David had got broad on the till so switched with someone else and was now packing shelves and walking more with Sarah which was more fun and looked healthy.
Plus if it was a nice day David and Sarah would take the bikes, well Sarah would David took the three wheeled bike seeing as he never learned how to ride a bike when he was young, he was more into his cars than anything else.
Now they were also riding Joey thanks to the money jolly had sent them they went out and brought a whole load of riding stuff and they were getting less food when they went shopping, they where saving loads on food and David had cut down on the coke and crisps he was now only having one per day two if he was a bit rushed and needed some sugar in him and had discovered a thing called chaises and roast potatoes which are very healthy.
After a mouth or so David and Sarah looked and felt thinner and fitter they now wanted to know how much thinner they were.
Now at the end of the mouth it was time to weigh themselves Sarah went first naked and making sure David had not touched the scales and she weighted 9 stone she had lost more but now she had a confession to make to David she had stopped eating food and that's why she was always looking weak and tried and had only been eating some stuff that she cooked.
Now it was David turn he had been riding Joey and de-weeding the garden and mowing the lawn and also walking to the shops for a takeaway only one per mouth and so David stepped on to the scales and he weighed 13 stone
"WOW! That's good"
David was now 13 stone and he felt a lot fitter now when he walked up the stairs with something heavy or just walking up the stairs in journal, when he got to the top he didn't fell like he was out of breath and needed to sit down he now ran up the stairs and was not quite out of breath but only a little bit but it was a lot better.
David and Sarah both hugged each other and now it was on to a more series matter, Sarah missing out on foods she was given a whole big bag of crisps and was told to eat the whole bag and she did and after a bit more food she was back up to 11 stone which was okay in David's books a lot better than 9.
David was now getting better at what he ate he now knew that some foods are nice to have but only once per mouth not every day or on a weekly basses, but for now Sarah and David loved the fact that they had lost between them 6 stone and still losing weight, David was now on to 11 ½ stone and Sarah had gone back up to 11 stone and now they both felt fitter and more active and so did Joey he was more thinner then he was when they got him but they watched his weight just in case but he never went off his food or anything else always eating the grass and the trees.
David decided to treat Sarah to a fun day out and that's what they did.
