ok so I have decided to do my own journal to kick my backside into gear in 2009.
Background
I am currently 30 years old, 5ft 8, weighing at 13stone 8lbs with also slightly high blood pressure.
Now as I used to be a practising bodybuilder who used to watch EVERYTHING I ate and attended the gym 5 times a week (click to enlarge picture)
I quit the gym in early 2007 to dedicate more time to my work and family life, instead of myself and the gym. I now sit on my arse all day everyday building up my internet businesses and spending time with my family, and will snack on anything and everything in sight.
I have always been a VERY fussy eater since a kid and I dont like ANY salad / veg / fruit apart from peas, grapes and apples.
My diet now consists literally of burger king, mcdonalds, harvester, pasta, super noodles, chips, indian, pizza, chicken and bacon baguettes, subway and anything else which tastes nice but is no good for you. My other biggest vice is coca-cola and I have been known to drink 18 cans a day of it !
Now one thing in my defence is that I am almost tee-total as I done enough drinking in my younger days lol ! and I rarely have a drink or get drunk - maybe 2 times a year and thats it.
Needless to say I am now unhealthily over weight and actually feel fat. Looking back at my pictures from when I was a gym fanatic, makes me sad as I thought I looked crap then, so god knows what I look like now !
So I have decided to embark on this jouney and see where I can be in 3 months time - my modest goal is 1 stone 2lbs in 3 months so thats 12 weeks to lose just under 1.5lb every week.
Wish me luck as I am definatly going to need it !
