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 23 - End of Week 5

Weigh in day today and I am at 16st 5lbs, which means another 3lbs this week and a total loss for 5 weeks of 25lbs.

So current weight is 16st 5lbs (229lbs or 103.8kg)

Back to the gym this morning and felt OK - managed to run for a full 30 mins on the treadmill at a reasonable pace so I am feeling more and more confident in my knee and hope to start road running properly as soon as the nights start to get lighter which I have found in the past to be my most effective way of increasing my fitness and weight loss so I am still feeling positive and committed to staying on the road to thinness!
