Almost one year ago I decided to join the gym in an effort to shed the gut and flabby man boobs. At the time I was weighing in at a hefty 18st 4lbs (256lbs). It wasn't to bad as I am 6'2" and have a big build so I carried it ok, but I was starting to look fat as oppose to just a bit porky. I didn't sweat when I answered the phone or anything but 4 years of student excess had taken their toll.
Well there have been ups and downs and to be completely honest I see little differance in my body shape. Face is a bit thinner and I guess I must have shed from round the middle cause I can now remove all my trousers without undoing them! Also made a new hole in my belt about 5 inches up from the old one. YAY! I also went from a 38-40 waist size to a 34 now.
So last night at the gym I weighed in at 15st 10lbs (220lbs). Still not my ideal weight but I'm well chuffed. Two and a half stone is not bad especially as I was laid up with a dodgy neck/shoulder for 3 months.
So basically what I'm saying is: WOO....YAY I fricken rock.
Good work ex-fat bloke. i salute you!

Well done, more room in your trousers for lots more beer
It was the beer that caused the problem in the first place! I still managed to train twice a week even at my heaviest I was just eating to much cheese and drinking to much booze.
