            bit of a blip on the weight loss, 97.5 on Wed, 97.9 yesterday and 97.7 this morning. <br />
            <br />
            Wed was a rest day, but had a good workout last night.<br />
            <br />
            Am going to change my exercise programme next week to be more specific whereas to date I have been doing more generic stuff to get into a routine.

              don't weight yourself every day - natural fluctuation. Only weight yourself every day in the week leading up to a competition, and as there will never be a week like that (in the foreseeable future I expect), once a week should be fine! I am loving it, once a month when I go and see diet guru pretty much. Last time plesant surtprise, lighter than I thought I'd be, but then should have known, as the belt is still loose enough to wear on the first notch - usually on 2nd by now!!

                I am using the next notch in on my belts, which is pretty cool.<br />
                <br />
                I am quite amazed as to how much your weight fluctuates during the course of a day!

                  the beltometer is the best judge I reckon. Pre xmas I was slipping to second hole, but now well back into first hole!! Is the belt I had when a fat bastard too, so wraps around past my hip!! My reminder.

                    good workout yesterday, some very sore muscles at the end, although feel surprisingly good today. Back from a 35 minute run, finished with a 100m sprint in the scorching sun, again, feeling very good! <br />
                    <br />
                    Get some cravings for some of the foods and drinks I have cut out or reduced, given in a couple of times, but just as a treat...

                      treat is good, and myabe make a point of portion control when you treat. Instead of a whole packet of Tim Tams (mmmm, Tim Tams), have half the packet... Or in my case, think about half the packet before you knock off the whole thing...

                          have a cup of alpine tea each night, that will help!

                            cos it is the end of the month, I weighed in this morning, 97.0kg, so 6kg in 31 days, pretty happy with that! <br />
                            <br />
                            Another good workout today, with some different exercises, day off tomorrow.

                                yeah mate, feel pretty good, as I said even when I am running, I feel great, no where near as knackered as I expected, I assume the better diet is giving me greater energy levels.<br />
                                <br />
                                Not sure where the 6kg has gone from though :think:...2 more kg to my initial target, will re-assess once there.

                                        <br />
                                        That has to be a good thing!

                                          As a fellow garage weights enthusiast a word of warning. Don't be stupid like me and think "right I benched/curled/cleaned or whatever yesterday" and try and beat it the next day. Very tempting if the weights are just sitting there. You'll only overtrain and get weaker !
