You have a year to hit your target, so plenty of time. If you lost 2 pounds a week for 5 weeks, that's 104 pounds. That's nearly 7 and a half stone!http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/fb.ashx?m=3697506Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:32:12 GMTHi guys im a 19 stone 24 year old guy have done some training in the past and have always worked outdoors in the last 2 years i have gone up from 17 stone to 19 and developed a beer belly, quite a large one i really need tohttp://www.muscletalk.co.uk/fb.ashx?m=3697460Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:21:39 GMTIf it's on an empty stomach then I don't think you'd want to go for too long when your body is in a catabolic state.
