    Bad weekend for eating<br />
    <br />
    Back was sore after yesterday's working bee shit. Had a nap this afternoon and then, while watching the ODI, decided to crack out some push ups as the back felt better<br />
    <br />
    30, 25, 20, 15, 10 = 100.<br />
    <br />
    Then squats 25 x 2

    Karate tonight. What the fuck is it about Tuesdays that I never feel like going, but always feel great afterwards? I even left work an hour early!

    Run this morning - 5.04 in 26:33. Time nothing special but I wasn't feeling the most motivated. Walked another 2km home in 18:50.<br />
    <br />
    Hopped on the scales and was 92.0 even, so a bit of work to do in the next 24 hours to crack last week's 91.6. Lots of water, minimal anything else.<br />
    <br />
    Tomorrow will be halfway in the current cycle so if I get to 91, the result will look like something between 89 and 90 by the time I finish. Would like to get in under 89 and work on settling there before the next attempt come Spring.

    Run this morning before weigh in. After pizza last night I'm not confident of seeing any progress.<br />
    <br />
    7.02 km in 38:25 - kept it under 5:30 which is alright. Was aiming for road time, not speed.<br />

    Waist 96<br />
    Hips 102<br />

    <br />
    Today<br />
    <br />
    91.2<br />
    Chest 107<br />
    Waist 96<br />
    Hips 102<br />
    <br />
    So this week I'll have to take it up a notch - more running for starters, along with incidental exercise like taking the stairs at work, removing the extra bits of sugar etc.<br />
    <br />
    Three weeks to get under 90.

    Oh long weekend, you are so awesome for my mind, but so bad for my body... Short week coming up - will have to hit it pretty hard after the days of relaxation and gastronomic excess. Worth every calorie

    Shit. Have to go out to site for an install tomorrow because someone else dropped the custard. The problem is, I have to do it first thing because the rest of the day is booked with family shit and topped off with Tahs v pussy cats<br />
    <br />
    So no run or weigh in tomorrow, and definitely not on Sunday after the rugby beers!

    Weekend was a write off, but at least I had some nice beers on Saturday.<br />
    <br />
    Sunday was birthday lunch and movie (Despicable Me 2 - highly recommended if you know the first one). <br />
    <br />
    The last three days have been 12+ hours on site trying to get 2 proof of concept systems running before they opened the store today. I got the second one running three hours after open...<br />

    This winter thing is getting me down. Well, that and a 60 hour week at work travelling halfway across the fucking city to get shit working. The point is - fuck weight loss. I'll let midwinter happen and reassess in August.<br />
    <br />
    Though I saw some of the Xfit world games on ESPN and those dudes are pretty inspiring. Though I'm not into waxing... or dudes.<br />
    <br />
    Might start a new thread.

    [size=4]So the plan is to maintain current weight-ish?? You've knocked off some pretty gnarly challenges since you got this thread cranking again, and made mean progress. I guess the risk is slipping from 'fuck weight loss' to 'nom nom nom'!! [/size]
