Total Life change..and shock to the system
Yoshi:
With regards to normal weight loss, a local acquaintance of mine managed to lose about 13st in under a year. He did it with walking and cutting all fat out of his diet.
He still keeps to the diet and exercises, but he went from being extremely overweight to being of a normal size.

Sorry to hear that Bez - I hope the diet goes well. I'd stay off anything more than walking while you lose the weight though. The extra stress on your body caused by too much exercise at this stage can be catastrophic.
I tore my medial collateral ligament while doing Muay Thai last year, and was told by both my instructor and my physio that I'm looking at 6 months recovery, and unless I want it to be a "life injury" to stick to light training only. :cry: This has put back me getting my Instructors licence until next year now.
As for diets - most people would find themselves losing weight and feeling more energetic if they cut out the junk/fatty foods, and the starch found in things like white bread, white rice, white pasta etc. Wholegrain all the way.
Everybody is different, and some diets are not suited to everyone. Good luck with it all.

Try contacting 'Strapping Young Lad', as he's been on a big diet recently
Sounds like I ought not to be worried about being 5'8" & about 11stone then?
About 5 years ago when I was racing & training (again), I got from almost 12stone to 9stone in 3months.
All I did was cut out all the cr@p, no fried food & a fair bit of excercise.
The only problem was that SWMBO worked at the same Hospital at the time & she got fed up of people asking if I was okay - was I feeling well, etc....
After all, I did lose it quickly, but felt great, I could sprint (out of the saddle) up hills like Holme-Moss :lol:
Lord Shagg-Pyle:
Know how you feel Bez. I have just been put on meds for a racing pulse rate and got the lecture: fags, beer, fatty foods etc.
So I now have nicotine patch on my backside, and everything I eat is steamed or boiled. Beer? Reduced. :wink:
I certainly want to live longer, but I want some kind of enjoyment.
All the best, mate.
bezzabsa:
