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..

New Wheels!!!





Just thought I would post a picture of the new wheels.... Well, a picture of the same wheels that I have just ordered anyway - it should be here on the 1st week of July. Although I have been trying to wear the wife down on the idea of getting a van, I just couldn't justify one for a couple of Sundays per month when I need to use it every day for work as well.

This should be a nice comfortable commuting vehicle and also be pretty capable for carrying the bike on Sundays too! Its the new Volvo XC60 R Design, I considered the Audi Q5 but preferred this when I drove them both so the deal has been done and the nice Volvo man knocked down by £4k from the list price so I'm pretty chuffed with myself and I hope the next 2 months go quickly...
