Desmo, well done and you can see the difference.
Enjoy the bulking!

Thanks for the comments guys

Think it's time for a bit of a bulk now. Things are starting to settle around here a little now so I might be able to get a bit of consistency back again.

Definitely lost the love handles and back looks more defined.

I think you and the Mrs (just seen her pics) have done very well and should be pleased and proud with what you have achieved

I'm pleased with the changes but just wish I could have given it a better shot. Maybe some other time

Well, here we are at the end. I wouldn't call it a Desmo Disaster but it's certainly not gone as well as planned due to outside influences. Diet has been pretty good 95% of the time, but the training and cardio have really suffered. Still, I'm happy to see I've made "some" progress.

Weight has dropped down to 10st 8.5lb which is without a doubt the lightest I've been in my adult life.

So, here's the pics...

Maybe for you

I refused ice cream and fizzy drinks today and stuck to bottles of water.

I on the other hand only had a whopper JR with cheese meal

Although this weekend has turned into a bit of a cheat weekend rather than a cheat meal :/

I started running again last week and got out a couple of times. Not run for a while but managed 4.2km on the first night and 5.4km on the second. Hoping to add a little more each time I head out.

Went a bit overboard on my cheat meal yesterday. BK XL Bacon Double Cheeseburger, Fries, Fanta, Onion Rings and Chilli Cheese bites

Well done on the weight loss so far J.

Keep up the excellent work!

Kind of heading in a different direction with this which I guess puts me out of the running if we have to stick to our original plan. Not that it bothers me as it's only for a bit of fun and is still driving me on.

I'm losing a fair amount of weight and fat at a steady rate and can start to see the difference so I'm looking to cut a bit more rather than worrying about trying to build muscle too. Still going to the gym the same amount so will slowly build but the walking and now running is starting to pay off along with working on the diet.

I'm down 8lb since the start which although isn't a massive amount, it's a nice steady drop. I've also only been running this last week so if I keep that up I should see more gains

I was too zonked to get up once I hit the sack. Think I had a few vodkas too many

Made up for it today by going out for a walk with my mate. GPS on the phone says we did 6.77km so not bad for an afternoon stroll to the park.

Problem is when drinking all night you also get up every 45 mins bursting to go to the loo!

I had the same thing this morning after i'd had some wine last night - that dehydrates me like you wouldn't believe. Glad to have weighed myelf again several hours later and having drunk 2 x 1litre bottles of squash, half a bottle of water, and then a pint of fosters and i was actually lighter than this morning!

Didn't have a good week last week with the morning cardio and my diet wasn't great yesterday either. Had a weigh in this morning and have dropped to 11st 0.25lb hehe. Must just be dehydrated from drinking last night
