Not the same as being healthy as you’ll know
you're a big lad -
I'm a bit porky at the moment, got carried away over xmas - too many puddings
72 tall 37 waist = 51.4%
it will come off when we get into the spring
probably 72/34 mid summer 47%. I need to get back down to under 13st and cycling doesn't help it just makes me more hungry

The main cause? An appalling diet.
sugar is a big nasty
