    I don't actually want to lose weight..... I'm happy at 14st. I just want to change the fat to muscle so my aim is to reduce my keg to a 6 pack at the end of the year.

    dropped about a pound, maybe 2....

    Excerise - going well (about 150miles on the bikes since last friday - some of which was slogging through snow)

    Diet - no so much - KFC zinger box last night!

    Well, at least I haven't gained any...

    Week2 = 13st 6lbs. :D

    Weight now: 13st 7lb

    Target weight: Ideally under 11st, as I always was. Though I understand this is completely unrealistic in the short-term (maybe even in the long term, due to age :? ). But in the meantime I'll be concentrating on moving ahead week by week. 1lb here, 2lb there. Considering I've been a lazy bastard for the last couple of years, I'll be thinking more about losing 2st for now, which I think is reasonable. No target date though.

    I'm joining in.

    Its muscle.

    Me, 15st 11lbs and on last nights night ride my belly kept switching off my lights.

    Bad times.

    Going running today though to loose bulk. Got a week of skiing next week so that should help with the leg muscles, although not so much in the weight loss dept.

    I get fluctuations like that usually depends on what time of the day you weigh and how much water your body is holding (retention).

    I have seen little change in my weight since new years, so as of this morning I have extended my commute from 15 mins to 40mins :D

    This weeks going well - down 3 or 4 pounds to 13st 9lbs - cut out cake and puddings completely and commuted 18 miles (9 miles each way) a day. Feeling better for it.

    LOL. I asked my GP about that. He said no it happens across all ages. Then he started telling me how much a stored sh!t weighs etc etc etc. Then I got the bathroom scales are generally shite speech......I wish I hadn't bothered asking in the end tbh but his delivery is sublime.

    Well, I have my plan sorted now...

    I'll try to stay relatively healthy on food, but I get pretty mardy and depressed when hungry, so it's not a great way to lose weight.

    The alternative is now in place.

    Weekly schedule:
      Tuesday - Night ride 10-15miles. Wednesday - Pilates class. Thursday/Friday - Body pump class. Sunday - 2nd ride, some casual, some longer and faster, depending on group.

    I'll do weigh ins after each pilates class at the gym.
    This week - 99.5kgs or 15st 9lbs.

    Now bring on the dry weather to make the rides more pleasent!

    Righto - good news (and this has mostly been from laying off the beer since new year - drink one night a week now) still pretty much eating what I want (within reason)

    2nd Jan = 14 stone exact

    23 Jan = 13 stone 7 lb

    7lbs in 3 weeks - YAY for me :D

    Scales told me I lost a pound at the end of my first week. The scales aren't too accurate though so I'm not relying on them.

    Well done. I'll weigh myself on Friday, but I'm not holding my breath about any weight loss.

    week one: 15st - 4.6Ibs
    week two: 15st - 5.2Ibs
    week three: 15st - 7Ibs wasn't a good week
    week four: 15st - 1.4Ibs

    I wasn't best pleased with myself last Saturday. So thought i'd better knuckle down this week and i'm pretty happy with the result, but will now calm down on how much i lose a week.
    Hows everyone else doing
