Deltoids have solid definition... My thighs and calves are considerably larger too. All of this fencing is paying off! It's nice to be getting back in shape without spending hours and hours in a gym doing boring exercises! I never could do that.

Good going. I'm back on the weight loss trail, having gained back a lot of what I lost last year due to being incapacitated with back problems (now gone) and indolence...
I have lost half a stone in just over a week on my wheat-free diet (7 pounds/3Kg) and am on a quest to get from my current 13 stone 4 pounds (186 pounds/84Kg) to 12 stone (168 pounds/76Kg). I now walk half an hour or so every day (usually to the supermarket, so that I have a goal for my exercise - I too find it hard to just sit or stand in one place and exercise in the gym), but apart from staying wheat free, I am not dieting, am eating what I like, and drinking too. All thanks to stumbling over
