Gaah! I've put on over a stone since new year. Just started a new job after being inconveniently made redundant, so commuting 1 1/2 hours each way, knackered when I get home so can't be bothered going to the gym. And don't get me started on those chancers; I switched gyms because I thought a change of scene would inspire me, but I'm having to stand about for 15 minutes waiting for a locker because they've taken on too many members. I generally last about 5 before I just go home. I would go out with the local bike club, but I rarely get home before they leave for their ride and I'm starting to spend more Sundays in the pub than on my bike. What can I do to jump start my fitness before I turn into Chris Moyles? (incidentally, sitting with a box of Roses in front of me).

Move more and eat less! Can you buy a little folding Dahon take it with you and cycle some of the way to work? Cancel your gym that'll pay for one.
Go on son you can do it!!!!!!

Ton, based in Glasgow, met you on the STW New Year trip to Inners (I was the one in the comedy pads and full face).

Get changed before you get to the gym and shower when you get home.

Or commute part way on the bike - where is your commute to and from? Could it be done partly by bike and partly in car/train?

Buy a treadmill. Not the best but at least its just there to be used whenever.

I wondered how you were putting on weight with a 1.5 hour route, but then realised you weren't riding it.
