Not really been posting in this thread, but will now as I'm feeling rather pleased with myself. Forgive me for that

11th Jan 2010: major health scare/blue light to hospital, off work for 10 days, etc - 13st 11lbs (height = 5' 11.5")

Decided that I needed to look after myself, get fit and lose a stone.

Today (and every day this week) = 12st 9lbs

How:

1. No calorie-controlled diet as such, just made sure that I ate a huge bowl of Jordan's Super Berry Granola before leaving for work (great stuff - highly recommended)
2. Only one fry up per week (Friday at work) - no lunch that day
3. No chips at lunchtime - bread/roll or rice only
4. No alcohol Monday to Thursday inc
5. No burgers

6. Ride my bike*

* from a standing start bike-wise on Easter Monday I've done over 600 miles on the bike, done the 81-mile Dragon Ride and done a 240-mile weekender with my mates.

If I can do it, so can the rest of you...... just stick at it. Remember, salads can be as nice as burgers

Up to 11st 9lb.

I have however put on a reasonable amount of muscle thanks to muscle memory. Just need to work a little more on the fat burn!

I haven't weighed myself this week, first week I had only lost 1lb.

However I had to tighten the waist strap on my back protector yesterday

Not been sticking to a strict diet, just cut out chocolate, crisps, takeaways etc.

Also been walking as much as I can, not used the car in 2 weeks (although I have used the bike a lot).

That's not what it means

Probably not!

Thought I'd share this with you all, I have been assesing various programs of exercise/dieting combinations, to see what is available, looking at celebs like statham, van damme, and also sportsmen...And I was lead to this little beauty for Michael Phelps...I honestly nearly fell out of my chair when I read the calorie intake
