This week has been a mixed bag, but progress is still being made and in three weeks I have dropped a full BMI point and shed half a stone, which feels like a real landmark. I’m starting to feel – and think I look – slimmer/fitter/lighter – still 9lbs to go to target, though, so not at the half way point yet.
17/08/2017 – Weight: 11st 11lb and 1/4. BMI = 23.6
24/08/2017 – Weight: 11st 7lb and 3/4. BMI = 23.2
31/08/2017 – Weight: 11st 6lb and 1/2. BMI = 22.9
07/09/2017 – Weight: 11st 4lb and 1/4. BMI = 22.6
Last Friday I had to WFH, did no exercise and lots of eating and drinking at the weekend and ended up with severe food poisoning (likely a contributing factor to continued weight loss) – I did no exercise on Monday, but since then I’ve been good and put in 80 miles, upped the sit/push ups to 30 a day and basically eaten a lot less than usual. My appetite seems to have suddenly diminished somewhat. Whereas I’d otherwise be starving by lunchtime or when I get home, I don’t feel the urge to gorge/snack and have been feeling full before finishing my usual portion size – I really hope that isn’t a temporary thing.
The next week should be pretty good in terms of being able to stick to the regime – some light imbibement on Saturday aside.
