The weekly weight update


With no further ado, no beating about the bush or procrastination, I’m going to dive straight in and tell you how much I weigh. This is after a not-so-successful week at the gym, which started well and then all fell apart yesterday morning. To summarise, I had a big weight-training workout on Saturday morning, spent the rest of the day being unable to move (due to lack of energy more than aching muscles), did the cardio workout Monday morning, weights Tuesday evening, had Wednesday off…… then overslept Thursday morning. Bugger. That’s thrown the plan of action all out of kilter, hasn’t it? I was busy Thursday evening so couldn’t go then. This morning was another late start…. so I’m definately 100% off down to the gym tonight to make up for it all. And I’m going to go tomorrow and Sunday as well.
I feel like I’m starting to let myself down, and it’s not even been 72 hours since my last visit. I don’t want to get out of the habit of going, I’m not going to let myself get out of the habit of going, and I’m bloody well going to go. Even if it kills me, heheheh.
Anyway, I’ve done three workouts since the last weigh-in, so what’s the figure looking like to today? Well, pretty much the same as last week I think, 16 stone 3lbs (227lbs). Acutally, no, not the same as last week. I’ve lost a pound! Which is a step in the right direction I suppose.
I’m definately feeling better for going to the gym. I’m sleeping better, and (usually) going to bed earlier in the day. I’m not sweating and dripping as much as when I started, and I don’t feel like a eunuch in a brothel when I’m there.
Onwards!

    Good for you! I started going to the gym two weeks ago after the summer months. I always feel a lot better after a work out. There you go, onwards! Michele sent me, by the way.

    Did you take your keys out of your pockets? Loose change? Belt off? Shoes? With all that work you GOTTA be under 16 stones. (I love talking in British. “16 stones.” Hah.)
    You got the right attitude. Keep it up. Good luck to you.

    Did you move the scale all around the floor again, to be sure?

    Go Dan!!
    You know, I always admire the folks who write about their efforts to get healthy, whether they work out or not. It gives me hope.
    Having said that, don’t beat yourself up for what you didn’t do – celebrate what you did do, and use it as something to build on. Cheers.

    congrats on the pound lost!
    With all your workouts you are probably developing muscle and remember muscle weighs more than fat. Using a tape measure might give you a better idea of your progressor how your clothes fit. But hey, you FEEL better thats the main thing!
