Where to start?

Twelve months into my "lifestyle" change, and where am I?

Fitter? Yes, Stronger? Yes.

Bigger? Well yes I suppose I am, but at Christmas 2006, I had problems in my life.  I finished work and headed to the nearest pub. I never left until the place shut.  Night after night, that was my routine.

Weekends were party time!

January 2007, I weighed in at a little over ten stone, not a lot for over six foot. So, a little more than a year on, I’m a lot bigger, but probably only a little over my natural weight.  

At the end of this summer, we,re planning on spending a few days in New York,  our first visit to the States, to meet at least one one member of this forum.

Of course, workouts are planned.  So I need to be bigger,pain has already been promised  

I need to eat more, much more than I do know.  I’m not lazy, I’m almost religous in keeping to my workout schedule, but food, that I struggle with.  My partner, Kath, eats pretty much the same as me but wants to lose a couple of stone, even the dog’s overweight.

So today’s my first day to bulk, for want of a better word. (need to get organised on Fitday to actually work my calories out).  It was strange this morning, packing food to take to work.  Kat grabbed a weightwatchers, microwave meal, I’m stuffing chicken, tuna, bananas and almonds into a coolbag, then stopping to pick a couple of liters of milk on the way to work.

I,ve got home, taken sirloin steaks out for our late dinner, then cooked some rice and trout for my early dinner. I feel I’ve depleted the animal kingdom today lol

Guess this is all pretty rambling, just trying to put some thoughts into words, to remind myself where I started and to encourage myself "to get my arse in gear" to get to where I want to be
