If I could cycle in the comfort zone all day and get thinner, lighter and faster then I would do. But... it doesn't work like that, unfortunately. Intake wise, this is something I am struggling with right now. Up until now, what I've been doing in a very unscientific way has been working just fine. And then it stopped. Why, I don't know. So now I am looking at it trying to work out what the hell has happened. I'm looking into calorie intake information given to me by a friend. I will try it out and get back to you! Welshcyclist…

However, I am stuck at 16 stone, my commuting maintains that weight, and I'm "clinically obese", yet I feel great. I would like to lose more weight, in order to look slimmer etc., but to achieve that, means a great deal more effort on my part, which involves time, and I don't have alot of that. There I go again...... kidding myself, my problem is I eat too much!!!! I need to look at my food intake big time, and get the diet right, and stick to it. Any suggestions ?
