Im not sure what I weigh just now but it won't be pretty.
Possibly a bit embarrassed and scared to find out but I do need to drop a few trouser sizes.

I won't say I'm looking forward to finding out but will try anything once.

Looking forward to giving it a go.

Anyway its working for me, even though I suppose its cheating

Not really, only 6ft 1" but always been massive

Be careful with the pills should you change your mind, especially the Ali Diet Pills as they literally turn any fat you consume in to Diarrhea

Interested in this, I'm 20 stone 6ft 1.
I used to do a lot of weights when I was younger and I was a groundworker to, but know I spend most of my job in the car and eat rubbish really, so eager to start immediately .
Eat better walk the dog more maybe do some cardio interested in these appetite suppresants , not sure of target weight, I have always been large built, broad shoulders pretty strong but never healthy. I suppose main thing is my fitness shall go to one of those machines the weekend and see my weight and bmi count and take it from there

i think getting what you eat right should be your first step , iv,e cut right back on most things and started long walks to try and get fitter , need to start somewhere so thats what i,m doing first , not going to starve myself as thats counter productive , just need to totally rethink what goes in my gut.
