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..

Popped round to Dad's this morning and took a couple of pics of the bike. As you can see there is not much more we can do without the skills of Steve Gagg to do the finishing touches. I am hoping to take it up in the next 2 weeks and possibly getting things complete by the end of the year. The only addition that has been done in the last few days is a modified Gas gas chain tensioner fitted. I know that some other riders using these frames don't use a tensioner but I like to be safe and it just adds that small piece of mind to the job..
