Achieving Weight Loss and Fitness Personal Blog
More than two weeks later, I am trying to get back on track again. Shortly after posting last time, I hurt my back carrying my six yo son. Took me a week to be able to walk again, and two weeks to start exercising properly. The lack of exercise, or maybe the cold weather, or [...]
Yes, I am back on my weight loss program too! It’s been five weeks since my last post. I took some time off the main weight loss effort during most of that time. I didn’t binge on anything, but I didn’t stick to my IR diet as religiously as before.
Some things did stick and [...]
It’s official weigh-in day today, so I am logging in the results. Only half a pound down from last week and I am now at 91.9kg or 202.5 lbs. I shouldn’t complain really, considering I didn’t exercise this week. With my bad knee, I didn’t run or walk, and that meant no gym sessions either, [...]
Title has a nice ring to it. Well, not really. Feeling down today, fourth day in a row without running. Combined with hitting a plateau with the weight loss last week, I am not very pleased with the way things are going. Sigh.
My knee really hurts. On top of everything else, I took a bad [...]
Know what really made my day today?
I went out running. I was doing my 3km, according to my own plan and today I ran outdoors, instead of on the treadmill. It’s always harder for me to run outdoors, but I truly do enjoy that. It’s amazing just how much easier running is getting to be. [...]
I didn’t report anything last week, never got around to this blog, but thankfully I have the my posts in my online support group over at Soul Cysters It’s a great group of ladies, all trying to lose weight, with a goal of 35 pounds by Christmas (having started in late August).
I’ll start [...]
Or in local terms, a nice round kilogram
I know, I know, I should be thrilled about it. Still losing weight, after three months in this, and at a steady pace still. Not sure why, but I’m a bit restless about it, impatient if you like, wanting to be another 30lbs down and NOW [...]
Technically speaking, I lost about a pound and a half by my Friday weigh-in results. I guess that doesn’t really count as a plateau per se, but for some reason it feels like it. Maybe because I got lucky on that day, the weight was low, but days before that, and days after, it was [...]
This is not getting easier though, sigh. I am having some cravings today, going around the house with chocolate on my mind. I haven’t touched any in 3 months, I think. We had this gourmet chocolate bar at home, and everyone had some except me. We went to a birthday party on the weekend, I [...]
Great news this week - my last Cortisol test came back just fine. Not very low, but well within the normal range, so that’s good. I took it as a sign to get back to working out, although I am still being a tad more careful, making sure I don’t run or do weight training [...]
