Picked up the bike yesterday evening and put it together. Was bollixed after that
 Anyway, downloaded the app that Paulie suggested and linked it to the Google Fit app on my phone. Did 18k on the bike and can feel it in the legs this evening. One thing though, I was like Bambi on Ice, kept losing the rhythm and one of the pedal straps kept opening and my foot would fly out on a sprint Weighed myself for the first time in two years too after I showered, and im up just over a stone in that time. Thought it would be more.

Use that as an easy win Sham, the fact you're starting from a better base!
Out in the garden today and yesterday hacking at a load of bushes and briars to clear them, cutting them up etc. Great exercise!

what bikes did you go for sham and Paulie and how much did they set you back. Did you go for spin bikes or exercise bikes.

I have a BC50. It's a recumbent so it gives good support to your back. |

Fair play to the lads doing the exercise bike. Have one at home and if I do anything more then 30 I'm walking like John Wayne.

3 weeks back in gym and already my T-Shirts are fitting much better and I am not feeling like a fat slob. Still some way to go to get back to being fully in shape but moving in right direction.
I got the wife to take a similar front and side photo of me as I left first lockdown, then as I re-entered second after losing weight, then again as I left second and re-entered third, etc. My timeline history of waistline increasing and decreasing in sequence with the lockdown will probably be the most go-to thing I will look back on in years to come when I think about the lockdowns during the covid pandemic and explain to the grandkids what type of affect it had!

I ballooned up to 97kgs after the fist lockdown. Back down under 92kgs at the moment. Calorie counting on my fitness pal 6 days a week and leaving some rope to go off the rails one day at the weekend has worked for me. Scales is moving in slowly in the right direction. I could speed the weight loss up if I stopped drinking altogether but life is too stressful for that right now!

Really struggling with the weight recently. Exercise is isn't a problem I'm playing hurling 2/3 times a week and maybe an extra run on top of that but my diet is all over the place.
Feel like I've been overloaded with different diets and I really don't know what I should be eating, like I tried to follow operation transformation but then I read it somewhere that it was basically a calorie deficient diet for quick weight loss but not sustainable?!? Anyone have any links to websites or plans that are any good?

Honestly Foggy the only way to lose weight is to be eating less calories than you're burning. Any fad diet will only work if it is achieving that principal. Google 'Sigma nutrition calorie calculator' and enter your weight/height etc and it will calculate how many calories you should aim for if trying to lose weight. Then download My Fitness Pal app and track your calories for a few days to gauge how much you should be eating. Buy a little electronic weighing scales to weigh food - you'll be shocked at how many calories you over eat by free pouring the likes of porridge oats etc

Thanks Gaz. I understand that, I guess I'm looking for a sustainable calorie deficient diet rather than an extreme one that isn't sustainable long term |
