19th August Part 2

Erm.... yeah, alright then :-/


So, I went to the gym tonight and got my initial weigh in. It's not pretty.

27st 2lbs

Thats 172.5kg, or 380lbs.

This is officially the heaviest I've ever been. Seriously, I've never been this big before in my life. I'm actually disgusted at myself.

The gym session didn't go well either. My fitness has dropped so much I could barely manage half an hour of light cardio. I'm such a mess right now.

However, onwards an upwards. There's only so long I can sit mithering at myself for letting myself go so badly, especially considering how hard I worked in June.

So this is the way I'm looking at it; I managed to go to the gym tonight when I could have easily stayed home, I've been tracking my food and come well under my daily allowance and I'm back at the start of a hard process.

I know it won't take long to start losing weight again, so I'm not allowing myself to be demoralised by this.

I'm going to try. I have to try. I don't want to be this size forever.

Till next time

Deja Vu? Not likely

Hello again, how are you all doing? It's been a while, hasn't it?

I know I've posted this a few times in the past couple of months, but this time I promise I'm actually getting back on the horse and planning on losing weight again.

It's been a tough time for me over the last couple of months and I'm afraid I've undone all that good work I did in June and I probably weigh more than I did when I started at the beginning of the summer.

It's even got to the point where I've had to buy larger shirts for work, which made me quite sad.

So as of today, I'm back on the weightloss kick. 

As is the title of the blog, I'm still going to take things one month at a time as I still believe small short term goals are the best way to do achieve success.

Tonight I'm going to visit the gym for the first time in about 7 weeks, I'm back on my late evening to lunch time fasts to get things kicked off again. The difference this time is that I'm not going to be having such a restrictive diet like I did the last time. That diet was in no way shape or form sustainable. I'm going to allow myself carbs in small portions, unlike the last diet where I was pretty much denying myself all carbs at all.

So for this month I want to try and lose a stone, which I've achieved before so hopefully I can manage it again.

I'll post my starting weight and the starting picture this evening and keep you all updated with my meal plan and workout report
