About Me

I have come into 2012 with a strong desire to be more healthy and reduce my weight to something more acceptable for a man of my age and height. On the 1st of Jan 2012 at the age of 45 and height of 6ft 2in, I weighed in at 18st 2lbs (that's 256 lbs or 116kg). I have a pretty large frame and have always been able to carry a bit of excess baggage but I think its time to do something about it for my health and energy levels more than anything else. The experts suggest that for a man of my height and age I should be about 13.5 st but I have set myself a target of 15 st (210lbs or 95kg) - thats a planned loss of around 3 st (46lbs or 20kg) This BLOG is a record of my attempt to achieve this goal and I have made it public to help keep me motivated and on track. If you have any comments, thoughts or ideas and suggestions please feel free to leave me a message..

Post 22

No exercise for the last 3 days has left me feeling a bit sluggish.

It is surprising how quickly you get into a new habit of doing things and feel like you are missing out when you stop.

To be honest, since Friday I have felt pretty ill and have been trying to ward off a cold that is threatening to take hold. Mainly I have had a cough, sore throat and felt like all my nerve endings in my body are sensitive.

So the weekend was spend keeping warm and taking cold and flu treatment.

Feeling better today (Monday) so will start back at the gym again tomorrow.

I have managed to keep to the MonaVie program whilst I have been under the weather but honestly I haven't had much appetite so that has not been too difficult anyway (except I would probably go for comfort eating normally in these instances) .
