Eat less, but more frequently, take regular walks. You'd be surprised how effective that is at helping keep the weight at bay.

Eat less? Very difficult, that's the hard part. I love to eat. I take at least 1-2 walks a day since I got a dog. Actually I'm not horrendously fat, just out of shape and a bit of a belly @ 6'4" and ~240. I don't feel good though, that's the problem. Being out of shape will do that to you..

How much is 11 stone in pounds?

Walking the dog is a good thing, but I fully understand the love of food. Tis a tough one, then again, nothing truly worth doing is easy.

I know that one, I feel horrid if I go much above 12 stone. Even when I'm in shape.

@Red

Swimming is your friend. Embrace the pool! Nothing shifts the excess like doing a few dozen lengths every day.

Of course Bill will be upset at this time by the recent news about Gary Peake.
I am thinking of them all and send my best wishes.


Ugh, that is truely horrific news.  Sure does put one's priorities into perspective.  My heart goes out to Gary and his family.

Eat more meals and exercise is right. Had a nutritionist a while back: supposed to have six meals a day: three main meals and three snacks :)

They say the more muscle we have, the more we can eat and have to eat and will burn more calories by just sitting... its gettign them that takes effort.

My two cents

Quite. Though the resurgence of the_leander was rather an event, I do apologise for wandering off the topic.
