This weeks Biggest Loser

WooHoo, was the Biggest Loser this week. Had a great loss of 1.7 kgs. It was my turn to dip into the lucky dip packet at the Weightloss Challenge today. Dedicated my week to working harder on exercise sessions and longer walks, added swimming and aqua to my exercise routine.

As we go, see the difference

Need to focus more – Weightloss has slowed down a little

Went to gym early this morning to make sure I have a good weight loss this week. Worked out for 1.5 hours and spent 15 minutes in the sauna. Got to the Weightloss Challenge offices only to find out that I have lost .3 kg this week. Bummer, and I tried so hard this week. Well tomorrow is my second road race so I'm sure I'll have a much better loss next week. Being on holiday, watching what you eat is not easy. Days have become very erratic, missing meals and then trying to catch up the missed meal. Doesn't work. I've thrown away 2 weeks now so I'd better get my mind right and try harder.

Oh no, weight gain this week....

Holy cow, I gained 1.1 kgs this week, and I had to pay a fine of R15 nogal. Almost threw the scale out of the window. This sucks and I did a back to back training session last night of 13 kms. Thank goodness I'm on holiday now and will be able to put some more effort into the Challenge. But I still feel like a million dollars about my loss so far. Got so many extra outfits to wear because they fit again. Let's see what next week brings. So how has the challenge changed my life so far? I can now reach my toes and give myself a pedicure. Haven't been able to do that in years. Also managing to tie my shoelaces without having to hold my breath all the time. If I drop something on the floor I don't have to stand spread eagle like a Giraff to try and retrieve it. Getting in and out of the car is easier and my bath towel now wraps around me comfortably without creating a V. And the bonus, I have improved my time of 6 kms by 6 minutes.

Start of seven weeks

Wow, had a great loss this week. Lost 2.7 kgs. Very happy with this weeks weightloss. What did I do differently? Stopped snacking on popcorn and biltong. Increased exercise in the last two days taking part in the Get Fit Challenge beach sessions on 2 consecutive days. Reduced a dress size from last week to this week. Tried on the same dress this week but in a smaller size and it fitted nicely so I rewarded myself and purchased it. Big Dave had a fantastic Loss this week. So far he is leading the competition in the for the biggest loser so far, so for the rest of the challenge the pressure is on me to maintain the lead in centimetre loss. Got a tough couple of weeks ahead of me. But looking forward to it. Have received a couple of compliments today that I am glowing and happy.
