    As the title suggests.... i have decided to blog my attempt to lose weight and tone up
    Currently 31 yo male
    5'11 just tipping the scales at 15stone!
    Relatively fit and active through my twenties however a change in job and lifestyle has led to me putting on around two and a half stone in a little over a year and a half.
    I am not underestimating the task at hand hopefully the blog will keep me going in the initial stage i.e. TODAY!!!
    The masterplan to losing the weight will be a mix of weights and cardio been looking at the Kris Gethins 12 week plan think i might attempt to go down this route.
    any advice will be also greatly appreciated
    So here we go......

    Hey anseo .... I'm on board with you! I'm following a 21 day plan which is based mainly on Paleo. It's a great plan and it works!

    I started it a few weeks ago, got to day 7, then had to travel for work which was a disaster for my plan but week 1 I lost 5lbs. Anyway I'm back now. Day 1 / 21.

    So let's do this!!!
    Best of luck.

    How do you get to work? Cycling to work will really shift weight and doesn't take additional time

    I drive will hopefully start cycling when the days get longer unfortunatly its all back roads, so
    Jumped on the scales again on the 3/1/15 15st 7 horror heaviest in my lifetime. So got the finger out. Im currently on the ketosis high fat mid protein very low carb diet. Not a grain of sugar has passed my lips either.
