Hello Everyone! - Keen Cyclist struggling to lose weight

davids122

Hi everyone, my name is David, I'm 32 years old, I live in East Lothian and for many years now I've been trying to lose weight with virtually no success and I really struggle to stay motivated. I need to lose around 4 stone but have hovered around the same weight for around the last 5 years give or take a stone. I've tried Weight Watchers meetings (which I wasnt really comfortable with) and also on-line but its really made no difference. For the past 5 years I've been on medication to control my blood pressure.

This year I decided to try and take up cycling which I've discovered I really enjoy and I can now manage a 10 mile cycle with some ease. In the last month I took part in an event which was 20 miles long. Despite this, I'm still not losing enough weight and this year have lost a total of just 9lbs.

So, another fresh start it is I suppose, but at my age I'm concerned that if I dont do something about my weight it will start to have affect my health. I'm hoping that with the support of other like-minded people we can drive each other to success and healthier, happier lifestyles! Feel free to get in touch if you wish!
