That’s a lot of mince pies.
78.9kg is a good weight for me. 83.6kg is not. Ultimately I’d like to get down to 75 and stay around there. I’m supposed to be riding the Tor Divide in May, so that’s something to aim for as I don’t fancy carrying much excess weight around 150 miles of Peak District hills.
I am conscious that roughly 3 years ago I weighed 91kg and did some good work to bring myself down to high 70s. I have been happier for it. I’m also aware that most people who do diet don’t manage to keep that weight off for more than 3 years, so I am keen to buck the trend.
This year will be tougher as work is stressful and I’m not sleeping well as a result, and tiredness and stress are two big factors in me just eating whatever is available, regardless of whether it is nice or not.
