Don't think I've posted in this thread before but here goes.... Started the watching what I was eating thing just after new year and me and the boss in work had been talking about getting back into a reasonable shape. I was 17 stone (6'4 so not massively large round the gut). Anyways we found a bit of the work (the air handling unit room) and between us had some free weights, dumbbells, bars etc and decided to crack on with it on the lunch breaks every day. The idea for me was just to lose some weight and get back into a comfy 36" waist since I'm getting married in October. Just over a month in and I've lost 12lbs. I know it will now be harder to shake off multiple lbs in the weeks ahead but since I've already seen some improvement its a massive motivation for me. Who knows, might even be back at a 34 waist by October!!!
