Hey Guys,
Last week I posted before my session that I had let myself down diet wise and was expecting a gain and so it proved with 5lb on being the result on the scales. This week I’ve tried to get myself refocused and back on track, watching more carefully what I was eating and increasing my activity levels and it has paid off. I really enjoyed last nights session with Kenny and Ants, 16km on the bike in 30 mins and then working hard on the weights circuit for half an hour, going through dumb bell chest presses, lat pull downs, straight 10kg Arm rows on the first circuit, Deadlifts, side pulls and bicep curls on the second then leg extenders, shoulder presses and kettle bells on the last.
The hour flew past and afterwards although I was a little sore I felt great. Even on the weeks that there are weight gains there are so many positives for me to take away that although disappointing I am still really happy overall with how things are going.
I stepped on the scales at the end and was happy enough with a 3lb loss and I need to keep focused now and replicate this week on week and really start bringing the weight down. There are always gonna be good days and bad days, but I need to try and limit the bad and just remind myself how good it feels to see a lower number on the scales when I am about to make bad choices.
The graphic shows how thin the line is between making simple good decisions and simple bad decisions and at this size, the effect it could have on me. Here’s to staying in the zone this week and aiming to get back down and then under my lowest weight since I started this “journey”.
As always thanks for all your support, it is, as always appreciated and hopefully next week I am returning with tales of further improvements both in terms of weight and attitude.
TIME TO SHINE!!!!!
