Hi all I took a long look at myself a month ago and didn't like what I saw. I am 33 and need to lose about 2 stone but it's the unsightly man boobs that are annoying me. I have started cycling the 4 miles to work and am trying my best to cut back on chocolate and alcohol...Used to drink at least 6 bottles of wine a week plus the odd beer or six....

Was just browsing the web when I found this site and am pleased I did. Anyway, nice to meet you all and I hope you can support me in my quest to lose the 2 stone :)

Hi badcompany,
Welcome! I'm new here myself, and in less then a week I have learned sooooooo much from lots of people (including Steve)...
This site ill help you calculate how much calories you should consume in an effort to lose weight...


It seems you're well on your way, working in some cardio and whatnot...

As for the alcohol, I had the same problem...I have cut back substantially. The way i went about it was to simply tell people I don't drink anymore. (The first time i used that line my friends couldn't stop laughing as they handed me Another!) But slowly they offered me less drinks, which helped me greatly because usually they would say lets have another and i'd say why not...I still drink but the 'I don't drink' line comes in handy in beating off temptation and cravings...Maybe that will work for you too.

Sorry I can't help much with the chocolate, I too am a victim!...My cousin is a skinny little thing (she is always trying to gain weight) she always has some form of candy...so i figure between her and the office girls at work, I get my monthly fix. So i just don't buy it, Which is really hard at the grocery store when your waiting in line surrounded by chocolates, (mmmm chocolates) sometimes i see my hand reaching out for one....then i re route it to the magazines....

best of luck!
Lil
