Joe Davison
When did you join the club?
I joined in January 24 but officially started in season 9 in March 24.
What made you want to join?
My goal was to lose weight & have fun so was my reason for wanting to join.
Do you have a target weight or health goal?
My target changed throughout my journey. Originally was to lose a stone or two, then to hit BMI & then to maintain. To be around 78kg is the goal.
What’s your favourite MAN v FAT achievement, so far?
I’ve a couple of achievements that are up there including hitting BMI & being awarded Clubman of the season/year at the end of season MvF awards. To be honest just being at MvF & meeting some top blokes who are good friends now is the biggest achievement.
What position do you play?
I play in goal but happy to play on pitch to help the team when needed/required.
What’s your biggest challenge when it comes to weight loss?
Food! Food is my biggest challenge. Keeping motivated can be tricky at times.
Who’s your favourite footballer?
Steven Gerrard when he was playing. Now it’s Mo Salah.
What’s your go-to healthy meal or snack?
My go to healthy meal is a nice salad with prawns or a meat of some kind. Burger in a bowl is a good one. A nice apple or banana goes down well for a snack.
How do you stay motivated when it gets tough?
Motivation can be tricky at times especially at Christmas, Easter & special occasions. I just try to remember that one bad day isn’t always an issue it’s about the next day getting back on track & not beating yourself up for it!!
Do you have a favourite film?
My favourite film is Rocky. Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Con Air & Titanic are definitely up there as well.
What’s a fun fact about you outside of the club?
I collect coins. I collect special editions of 50ps & £2 coins.
