End of year review 2011

Here's the second one then, starting off with the beginning of the year...

Before, again the only pic that I have of Jan 2011
And the after...

 The main thing that I have noticed is that my weight has not really fluctuated. I still walk around at ~75Kg despite putting on more muscle and definition. I've put this mostly down to the training that began for Tough Mudder, which I started in October 2011. This was the first time I had taken the need to begin running seriously, and although by the end of December I had still not completed more than 6 miles in a row, the fat and shape cutting benefits of running had become clear for me to see.

I'd also by this time properly taken time to look at my diet, embarking on a well supplemented version of Paleo, though without the hardcore carb cutting. Bascially however I was eating a lot more natural protein and supplementing with a healthy combination of amino acids, whey and Creatine.
