Important one, this.
Create a plan based on what meals you are going to eat for the week. Once you have planned your meals, only buy the food you require for that week.
First off, if you only have your weekly food in the fridge, you can’t be tempted to eat any snacks, as they’ll [...]
I remembered talking to Rob Hogarth in KB Cycles a few weeks back about him taking an upcoming Saturday ride. He had already pre-warned me of the route he planned to take us on, so I was a little worried when I turned up at Anna’s and realized it was Rob taking the ride. I [...]
For the people who turned up on Thursday (no dig there, honest) it was obvious I wasn’t riding my Burls. I had turned up on my new time trial bike – a Trek Equinox TTX 9.0.
Initially, I was building up a 2005 Trek Equinox aluminum frame in time for the start of next season, [...]
Since romping around the last 25 mile time trial time in “evens”, I was looking forward to the next club TT for several reasons.
Firstly, and in what has been the worst kept secret ever (mainly my fault), I would be riding a shiny new Trek Equinox TTX 9.0 – a stunning carbon fibre time [...]
Saturday
It was another glorious June morning, but regardless of the weather, I had decided to ride to Ponteland. Dressed in a shiny new Astana kit (which made me at least feel like Alberto Contador, even if I didn’t look like him) I left for Pont at a pretty frenetic pace. This weekend was the [...]
I realise it’s slightly off topic, but the last couple of weeks have really got me thinking about cycling as a sport. I was considering not posting this, but what’s the point of having a blog that people actually read if I can’t sound off every once in a while?
As I become more interested [...]
It’s been while coming. Ever since hitting 17 stone 5 (the 5 stone lost mark) I’ve struggled, bouncing between 17 stone 1 and 17 stone 3.
Today, however I weigh 16 stone 12.7 – finally breaking the 17 stone mark. That’s now a total loss of…
…wait for it…
…5 stone 5lbs!
Well it was the choice between watching the Big Brother launch or racing in the 25 mile TT. Personally, I’d rather walk barefoot for 25 miles than be subjected to a contrived TV show that gets ever more desperate to entertain every year with a bunch of no hopers who will predictably become famous for [...]
As you all know, I use this blog to be as transparent about my health, weight loss and cycling as possible. I do this for several reasons – firstly so no matter what happens there is a well documented history of what I’ve achieved. The second is so that anyone in my situation (now or [...]
Usually this blog is all about me, and my weight loss. Sometimes, in order to put things into perspective, you need to look at others for inspiration, knowledge and a snapshot of where they are now compared to where they once were.
Andy Fuller and I know each other through the Vags, Facebook and this [...]
