Joy - my treat has always been Iron Maiden trooper ales and you must be aware of the high calorie kick alcohol gives you; I hit my target weight in c9 weeks and without the gym.I have GoFigure bar and or shake twice daily now instead of 3 or 4 times and found this maintains my weight. According to BMI I'm still over weight for age and size, but its a weight of my choosing because I have always maintained a stocky build.

Feel like I'm in the Big Brother House....

Day 9 on the Go Figure Diet!

Ok, first week LOST just under a smidge of 3 LB
I'm delighted!
Will carry on for another week.

A friend told me, if you're on a diet, you must have an end of week luxury treat to look forward to or you'll just cave in and ditch the diet.

So, bearing that in mind, I thought ok, I will have a bar of chocolate when I complete first week.
But, when it came to it last night, I didn't want any chocolate and that for me is groundbreaking! I opted instead for 1 cracker with cheese and a few sips of Snapps!

I can only conclude so far my taste buds have changed....
I no longer feel hungry and am happy with small evening meal with a cup of tea with milk.
Rest of the day shakes made with water, 2 bars, apple, pear and/or nectarine, loads of water and herbal teas.
First tea of day green tea as I think that's a good detox for system.
Last drink of day, a Camomile tea.
And I feel stuffed after all that so evening meal portions are definitely decreasing in size...

Okidoky, that's my update on diet, just off for afternoon walk, with my go figure bar for snack and bottle of water.

Oh yes, the whole institutional stuff, I'm weiry if they come on board because if they buy a large chunk they may sell that large chunk when they've made a tidy profit...
I think SOH may be mindful of that, the fund managers can...allegedly...make or break a share price...
Just my humble unprofessional ramblings on the subject.

Good luck all on the diet and shareholders too.
Please DYOR

P.S.
I feel I'm in a win win situation, being in OPTI and loosing weight!

Well if that be the case JJ he could always get em on board at a premium.

Personally I can't see a placing.

Sounds like numbers for year end will surprise anyway and with imminent rollout of further products it would be a major own goal to investor confidence just to let instis in.

I suspect they will have to stakebuild in the market.

Don't forget any placing would dilute soh as well.

Would be fun form once to watch the instis scramble for stock.

Sounds like times against them too as there could be more insti interest after the presentations first week in Feb!

Hopefully no more top up opportunities in the low 60's
My only slight concern is that if he does want instis onboard then a placing seems the only way for them to get a substantial holding
Can't see how they can acquire a decent insti type holding any other way myself
There not gonna get them with a few 2k, 5k or 10k sells

A quick comparison to the other UK listed microbiome focussed company.4D Pharma: years away from commercialisation.Optibiotix: products on the shelves already and massive roll-out expected in 2017.4D Pharma major shareholders (top 2):Woodford Investment Management - 24.1%Invesco Asset Management - 14.1%Optibiotix major shareholders (top 2):Finance Yorkshire Seedcorn Fund - 15.4%Stephen O'Hara - 12.9%4D Pharma MC: £400M Optibiotix MC: £60MWe can only imagine where the share price would end up should a major II like Woodford or Invesco decide to build a major stake as the company progresses.

W2hl 2017 2018 2019 then sale.

[shrewdmole] 21/1/2017 23:22

Fincap been on the offer for days keeping the lid on it.....

[parob] 21/1/2017 21:12

Cheers Neft.

TW:

"You can now see that OPTI is attracting institutional buying and it's possible that finCapp will be pressurised, since there are no large blocks of stock available, and will now have to start going hoovering up smaller blocks on the secondary market to feed that institutional demand. Sentiment in this stock has changed rather dramatically."

[whl2] 21/1/2017 20:58

Cheers for that neft - confirms what most of us suspected, insti's starting to climb on board. Well they won't be getting mine (or others here I suspect)on the cheap - if they want stock they can pay top dollar for it. All of us kept faith with the company last year despite what some perceived as a lack of progress.

Well things are changing - FAST
2017 really is going to be our year

GoFigure doesn't need to spend £20k (regional) for primetime adds. A household UK retailer did not need adds to discover GoFigure. The UK retailer may promote GoFigure for its own markets, thus save THWLC bottom line.

[shrewdmole] 21/1/2017 18:25

Rodders

Do you appreciate how much prime time to advertising costs?

Would need to be a far more developed brand before that happens.

Someone on lse really kicking off about Jim laird!!!

Do we eventually see Go Figure being advertised on TV to announce the science on a much quicker and bigger scale or is that way further down the line

[judijudi] 21/1/2017 11:31

Sanguine :)

[lodger] 21/1/2017 11:11

I think we might see it hit 80p and then come in for some selling pressure, a slight retrace, consolidation and then next leg up to a pound. Not worth trying to trade though for a few %, far more risk in missing the next step up.

I must say, it has been a very gratifying week, the last year of trading sideways and trending down appears to be out of the way, onwards and upwards to who knows where....

[elrico] 21/1/2017 10:56

Has anyone else grated their GoFigure bars with porridge? It certainly holds off the hunger longer and a great way to consume the bar.

[parob] 21/1/2017 10:03

Let's hope so Elrico, and if THWLC need more funds from OPTI to help with any further expansion/capacity, it would be great to see our stake increased further whilst the company is in its infancy.When SOH states..."We've made a very good start in building revenues as people will see when we announce our end of year results"....I think GoFigure will play a big part in this, but I also think he's referring to revenue from joint development agreements - I think we might be surprised by the amount this is generating.

[elrico] 21/1/2017 09:50

Back in October, Max provided some info on UK production capacity for GoFigure;Our UK manufacturers ­are able to make up t­o 3 million bars a mo­nth and up to 30+ ton­nes of shake powder.They also have room t­o expand should we ne­ed more capacity.We now have a more ro­bust forecasting syst­em in place with a st­rong focus on supply ­continuity.EndWe know THWLC need additional funding to meet production needs, etc and SOH suggesting YE would be encouraging, I would not bet against capacity needing to be increased this year.

[onedayrodders] 21/1/2017 09:44

I thought it was more appropriate first time mike

;o)

[f3rdinand] 21/1/2017 09:39

Will be very interested to see the EOY results! SOH seems confident they will show the 'very good start' that the gofigure product has had! Remember this was launched with virtually no advertising and the slimbiome division is the one with the least potential!

[mikerobe1] 21/1/2017 09:31
