I’m the same mate, packed up the fags after 35 years about 10 months ago and put on a stone and a half (which is a lot when I was 16 stone anyway ) I still play football so I wanted to shift a bit and set a goal of 14 stone. Went to see the nutritionist and he has suggested I cut to 1600 calories a day and put in a lot more time in the gym but concentrate on the big muscles (legs etc) Off my own back I have cut out the carbs as much as possible too. The diet isn’t so bad because it’s only what I was eating anyway, fresh food, fish etc. One interesting thing he said which I didn’t personally know is that it takes more calories to burn protein than it does carbs.....so your body actually burns more calories digesting chicken than it does rice .

Yeah thats perfectly logical. I'm just one of those that doesn't really put it on or lose it whatever I do, set in my ways and the only indulgence I do is a big dirty mixed naan kebab maybe once a month, the rest of the time I'm a meat and two veg guy.
