Good on you. If you've hit a plateau try and mix things up a bit. Have you thought about HIIT? Its a bit gruelling and you want to throw up after every session, but it burns fat quicker than anything else I've ever done. I got to a stage where I was just saying the same weight and physique even if I upped my exercise, but with HIIT I shed the last few pounds.

I'll give that a go. Will it shift the last of the fat from around my waistline?

I can't think of anything ore appropriate than HIIT for getting rid of it. What I do is get to the running track, walk two laps, full sprint for 20 seconds, walk for 40 seconds, sprint for 20, walk for 40 (do the sprints and the walk 6-10 times) and then walk round for two laps to cool down. You don't need a running track, you can do it on roads, in a field, etc. I do that a few times a week and on days I don't do a bit of a work out that involves different variations of pressups, different variations of sit ups, squats, lunges and if you have a chin up bar, incorporate that in too.
 
I was 18st at Christmas last year.

I decided that enough was enough after being overweight for the majority of my adult life.

For 20 years I have set a goal of running a marathon but I have always made excuses and/or sabotaged my progress by allowing things to get in my way.

This year I have sacrificed a great deal in that I have had ZERO alcohol, adopted a healthy diet and undertook a training regime which included 3 training sessions a week with British Military Fitness in Heaton Park and road running inbetween. Couple that with the fact that I run a business and have a growing family(my wife is 3 weeks away from having our 3rd little one and the other two are 4 and 2!!!)

Next Sunday, 13th September, I am running my 1st Marathon in Fleetwood and I'm hoping to do it in 4 hrs 30 mins.

I am now 14 stone flat and I could not have done this without BMF (British Military Fitness)
 
Hit the gym and ate properly for bout 3 month and lost 2 stone but put abit back on now :( but i have vowed to get back on it after this weekend and i will because its the 1st couple of days that are the hardest but after that its a piece of piss

A normal gym workout for me is

6000 meters rowing
Sit ups, around 100 assorted
Chest presses and bicep curls
Back to the sit ups
and finish with 20-25 minutes on the cross trainer or a 15 minute run on the treadmill

I'll give the HIIT at the end instead and see how I go
 
I lost a stone in just over a week in the Faroes. But I didn't eat for a week and as the substance that was coming out of both ends was the same, I can only presume I was throwing up and sh!tting stomach lining or something!

I need to lose some weight, it's bordering on the obese now!
 
The most weight I ever lost was when I was 18 and had proper flu. I couldn't move out of bed for a week and when I did my trousers fell down to my ankles after I fastened them up.
 
stone n a quarter in a month and a bit so far... all this drinking doesnt help tho, but im too young to give that shit up.
 
What's the best way of losing weight without actually dieting hard.
I want to eat what I normally eat but hold back on the junk food (crisp biscuits fizzy drinks)

How much exercise will I need to do?

Any tips would be fantastic.
 
The best way to slim down whilst still eating what ur eating is to eat more protien and less carbs.. eat the same but eat more meat less potatoes etc.. and do weight training instead of just cardio... you really want to do cardio once a week for an hour at the gym then have 3 weight training sessions.

hope thats helpful.
 
I lost over 5 stone within a relatively short period of time . It was quite easy looking back . All you need is a few cancers , a couple of transplants and nearly two dozen different varieties of high dosage chemotherapy .
I wouldn't recommend it but it works as a weight loss programme .

Only a couple of transplants? If you're going to fucking do something, so it properly.
 
Excercise i can do no problem, it's the food that is my huge weakness. I can eat Chicken and Pasta 7 days a week but found out last time i did this i put more weight on which did my flippin head in!

So can anyone recomend a weekly food menu for me and when i should eat them, i normally go to the gym at 6ish and come home starving but should i be doing this?
