ROLL AWEIGH THE STONE

Roll away the Stone was a single recorded by MOTT THE HOOPLE and released on their 1973 album, The Hoople.   Ian Hunter handles the vocals with Lynsey de Paul handling the 'vocal bridge.' 

Roll Away the Stones was released as a 'single' in 1973.

Since December 24th, 2014 I have been rolling away the pounds, the kilos and the stones.   So far, I have been lucky to avoid having any 'plateau' weeks - with definitive results each and every week, although this week was very close to a plateau.  My biggest weight loss was 9 lbs one week and my least weight loss was 0.6 lbs.   When I started this journey I weighed 309 lbs (22 Stone)    Before I stepped onto the scale this morning, Saturday, I had previously reported that I had shed 88 lbs - which was 6.3 Stones that I had rolled away!

There was an 'elephant' statue at the Indianapolis YMCA.  I don't know why.
Nevertheless, I took a photo of myself with it after my workout.
