When you fry room temperature potatoes in hot oil the surface of the chip is sealed quickly to reduce absorption of oil - this makes them a little healthier! Ignoring the saturated fat issue completely, chips are a great source of carbohydrate and if you eat them in moderation you should be OK. Although, why not make it a weekly treat? As for Scotch, is that single malt? A tipple will help kill germs residing in the throat that build up in these cold weather runs. Again, moderation! I wish you lots of luck Jen. I am running daily and know that it is never easy! Hi Jen, this is very tricky indeed.

Have you any advice that will stop me turning into roadkill on the day? I don't want to die of embarrassment, but please don't ask me to give up the scotch or chips. Thanks. Dear Mr Motley,

The more you run, the more bodyweight workouts that you do, the healthier and leaner that your diet is, the faster you will change your body. However, do not hope for too much too soon, be realistic in your weight loss goals. 1/2 kg a week, if exercising hard and dieting hard, is a sensible goal. Think long term fitness and health and the weight loss will follow and stay. It really is a matter of what you put in determines what you get out.

With those stats your BMI is 37.6, so even if you are very muscular you must still be carry a fair amount of excess fat. You need to reduce calories to lose weight. You suggestion sounds good for the main meal of the day. For breakfast you should eat a couple of eggs on 1 slice of wholemeal, and then for lunch have your main meal, then just soup (no bread) in the evening. Only by reducing calories will you start to burn off fat. If your goal is to lose weight, and I assume it is, then you may be best off not eating afterwards, or just having a very light snack.

I am currently 285 lbs and stand at 6 ft. 1 inch but I look like I am somewhere in the neighborhood of 250. Everyone I meet is amazed that I weigh as much as I do since I don't look it. I have planned the following work out for myself tonight: 20 minute jog followed by 3 sets of 10 count push ups 3 sets of 10 sit ups 3 sets of curls These will be done in a circuit with 30 sec rest in between. My question is what would you suggest I have to eat afterwards? I have planned to have baked chicken with steamed green beans and maybe half of a sweet potatoe. Should I eat something else? Should I have a protein shake after the workout. When it comes to nutrition I am lost. Ok here’s the deal.
