Opposite end of the spectrum to others, maybe. Lost a bit too much weight last year that I didn’t really have on me to lose, due to 2021 reasons. Put 3kg back on during November and December but obviously it’s gone back on as gut fat. Keen to keep a bit of it as reserves but also convert a bit back to leg bulk.
This was me on January 1st. It's been a bit of an up and down year. Initially I made good progress: I got my fitness back, shifted the gut and managed to maintain a low maintenance-level of exercise which kept everything in equilibrium. I lost about 3-4kg towards the end of the first quarter of the year due to general fatigue looking after the family etc. Then I went on some tablets which cooked my mind and made me put on about 7kg. When I came off those I ended up with a virus that left me fatigued for weeks and I lost a load of weight again. This time both the gut and all my strength...
The last few weeks I've finally had the energy to get back on my bike and commute. No idea what I weigh now, but I'm looking better and feeling stronger. I've got about 6-8 weeks until I have to start driving to work again (when the kids start school and nursery), so I'm going to maximise that time on the bike and then think about switching to running of a lunchtime.
