After riding less, being generally idle and eating/drinking too much I got to 15st (just under 6ft) and decided to do something about it.

A new bike has given me the drive to get out more and I'm doing 2-3 2hr rides per week. I've also sorted my diet out. Rather than a bacon butty every morning I have toast and allow myself one butty a week (usually the morning after a ride). I've stopped having sandwiches at lunchtime and have some pasta, fruit, or fish and I'm generally eating smaller quantities and plenty of water. The key point I think though, is my evening meal. I generally don't have one and I'm not missing it. I would normally sit down at 7pm and eat so much I felt like I was going to burst and usually felt uncomfortable for the rest of the evening. If I do get hungry, I'll have some cereal, or fruit, or some other healthy(ish) snack. I think eating when hungry and not at a specific time has a lot of benefits.

I now have more energy and feel loads better in myself. In fact, on the rare occassion that I have some fast food, it makes me feel awful, stodged and lethargic. I still drink far too much alcohol though

Oh, and I've lost a stone and a half in just over a month.
