You know I should be happy with -3lbs - and I am, but I am so disappointed with my overall effort.
Nearly a stone lost. It's taken far too long to get here and I'm disappointed in my attempts now.
My commitment has been poor. When will I realise you can't lose weight through exercising...you'll just get tired, get bored of the slow progress and go back to eating - if not through boredom then through being so tired you just make the wrong choices!
I really need to get a grip now.
-3 is great for this week...but more comittment is required.
I've decided rather than have weigh in on Friday mornings, I'm moving it to Sunday morning. The idea behind this move is that currently because I weigh in on Friday, I have "free Friday" - but then I'm not being very disciplined at the weekend. So what's happening is I'm being good during the week, but I'm not watching what I eat Friday, Saturday or Sunday...and that's 3 days lost in a week...which puts me on catch-up Monday to Thursday for weigh in on Friday.
So the idea is to move it to Sunday so I'm watching what I eat on Friday and Saturday too. So I'm watching what I eat 6 days a week and not the 4 I'm doing at the moment.
At work, I'm being petty good. But weekends (and through in the Friday) aren't...so I'm on the back foot come Monday for my weigh in on Fridays.
So weigh in on Sundays from now on.
Lets see if it helps.
From an exercise perspective, I cycled 60 miles last week and 60 the week before. I'll be aiming for 50 miles this week with an additional 15 at the weekend.
I need to start trying to get some distance in a single day - so I'll be doing 40-60 miles during the week and at weekends doing a bigger ride, starting at 15 and aiming to get to 40 in one day by the end of July
