    83.7kg this morning which is the heaviest I think I’ve ever been.

    I’ve been off the bike and dormant for far too long, partly due to a 20month old toddler, partly due to laziness. Generally, I eat well during the day but am too susceptible to a late evening treat and/or beer which also needs to be curbed.

    Planning to get back on the turbo from the weekend (2-3 times per week) along with free weight training (1-2 times per week), longer rides on the weekend when I can. Also looking to knock the late evening treats and limit drinking to one day a week so that the above isn’t too much of a shock and remains (fingers crossed) sustainable.

    Medium-term goal is to get back to, and sustain, 78kg which was always my typical weight when active. Having been dormant for so long I dread to know my body composition at present and believe the above should make marked improvements. Beyond that I would like to target 75kg but know I will need to make drastic changes to get there.

    Will aim to check in when I can and hope the New Year optimism can be sustained. Any advice or critique much welcomed.

  • That plan sounds good - nothing drastic so sounds pretty sustainable. Good luck!

    82.6 today on the scales. 2.6 gained over a very lazy Christmas. Back to fasting today, might slip in a short run, and have been thinking about joining the local 24hr gym, as membership is contract free and only £14pm. Largely because I lifted some weights over Xmas and I remembered how much I enjoy it - can't hurt to have a couple short sessions a week fucking around in the gym. It's also a lot more appealing than getting out running at the moment.
