ok ive been putting this off for months now but ive finally decided its time for a change of lifestyle, at the moment its all drinking and eating crap with limited exercise, but ive decided enough is enough. I currently work in an office so i find im just sat down all day and the weight is piling on - only problem is i dont have much time out of work to get down to a gym or ride my bike.

i was thinking of getting some basic gym equipment for my house just so i can do weights etc when im watching TV, any suggestions - EDIT: cheaper the better really

Plus im looking to totally change what im eating, any ideas as well??

Cheers guys

you have to buy a lot of books and try to calculate your calories a day and act then in a right way

I decided a few weeks ago the same thing that OP did. At 6 foot and 68kg I was not exactly a bloater, but I was a few kg lighter before starting my office job, so thought I probably should!

I now cycle to and from work (total of an hour's energetic cycling a day), have introduced vegetables to maybe 4 main meals out of 5 (it was about 0 before, so its a good move I feel ), and do maybe 10 mins of situps and pressups every evening. Need to extend that, but I get bored easily!

Haven't noticed a huge change yet I must admit, but maybe I should actually buy some scales. I move to a new job with an onsite free gym in November, and reckon I'll sign up. I'm also going climbing one evening a week, and power kiting at weekends (a lot more energetic than you may think!)

I already feel the 'I could actually get quite fit' bug!
