Condensed Version-

January 2013 - 24 stone. Year of change.
Spent twelve months learning about foods and nutrition and excerise (mainly resistance / cardio) Learnt a lot about myself, kept a daily diary of food intake, moods, results, warts and all. Weigh day every two weeks along with topless photos from 2 angles (frontal and side) in same position each time.

Food is a very funny lover whith whom you have an odd relationship with. Ive realised and overcome the emotional ties food had with me along with some appallingy bad food habits. Like most addictions, you have to overcome the demons, but still keep them in check constantly, in my opinion.

January 2014 - 18 stone. Year of transformation.
A hell of a journey the last 12 months, lowest weight was 17st 4lbs 1 week before Christmas 2103. Average of 7 lbs a month weight loss!
6 weeks off since Christmas, Illness and injury leads me to where I am now, starting my regime again on February 17th.
My target this year? "To see my Abs" basically, not too hung up on scale weight as a number, lose inches off the waist and the number takes care of itself I have found. If pushed I would like to lose another 52lbs.

Ive spent 12 months doing meal plans and calculating macros, and learning how my body responds to certain things.
If only I had found this site 12 months ago, I would have saved hours tabbing out food values in word documents! (Chronic OCD!) :0)


RECENT EDIT!-

I've also learned so much that at 18 st I want to lose 3 stone and came up with 52lb?...

So in reality I want to lose 42Lb NOT 52! If I lose that 42lb that will be a total of 126lbs since Jan 2013.
