Anybody else got fat/put weight on since becoming wfpers??
« on: September 20, 2013, 03:20:06 pm »
I used to be a trim 13 stone 6ft 2 guy fit as a fiddle from going up and down and carrying ladders all day long 8 hours a day.
That was 5 years ago, im now 16.2 and not so trim to say the least(fat bastaaaard lol)..
Lasty year i took up cycling which lost a stone and a half but since some scrote stole my bike making me give up on it the weight is now back..never gave putting weight on a 2nd thought when was trad as my whole working day was excercise and i felt fit as a fiddle. Now i goto the gym 2/3 times a week for the last 4 months and finding it near impossible to get as trim and as in shape as i was when was on the ladders.
Anybody else piled the pounds on since swapping to wfp??.

Try a bit of leafleting. The walking should get some of the lard off.   ;D

I saw a fat window cleaner with a pair of ladders today.  He was sweating like a Scouser in a job centre.

Simple equation for weight loss  " Eat less , Move more… "

Never did get the hang of it though…

Have put on about half a stone since WFP but have also cured my long term back problem inherited from a ladder fall 22 years ago.

Nothing beats trad for keeping the weight off  ;D
i was 13 stone, came off a roof and shattered my heels so took a few months off and ballooned to 15 1/2 stone.
back to 13 stone with being trad  ;D

If you cant lose weight with this then you have issues.
