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..

Great progress made today by 'spanners' Pete. As you can see from the pictures, the bike is taking shape nicely and will be soon on its wheels.

Today I found a nice little metal finishing company that specialises in classic bikes and cars near where I work in in Stroud, who will turn my stainless exhaust pipe around in just a few days. The pipe had been marked by the pipe bending machine when it was made and I wanted it finishing and polishing up so I should get it back on Friday, by which time I would imagine it will almost be finished and waiting for the tank to come back from painting.
