Off Track

BAD NEWS! After the weekend of very very bad eating i have INCREASED in weight!

Last week 101.2 kgs (222lbs)
This week 101.4 kgs (223lbs)

i could think of a million excuses for this - it's only a small gain, i put on muscle because of the extra heavy workouts, it's just normal fluctuations, blah blah.

But the reality is that this is just unacceptable and my eating over the past week (few weeks) has been unacceptable.

There are only three more weeks left of my transformation (no alcohol, body for life). I vow (let the cyber world be my witness) to keep on track for the next few weeks with my Big Mac diet, Eat Stop Eat and no snacks. Also, to blast away the mistakes of last week i wish to do some extra - so every day i will do some additional activity , WII Fit, walking, Driving range, Golf, Wakeskate (something low impact that will not reduce my recovery from the regular workouts or intervals but does burn some extra calories). Then, during the last week of the challenge i vow to make my ESE fasts 30 hours, stopping food after lunch on Monday the 1st and Thursday the 4th - therefore giving me the full fat burning effect.

On a positive note today was the start of my workout change - every three weeks i change all the exercises in the programme. i keep the programme the same as it is the body for life challenge but i change the exercises. today was leg extensions and curls (mainly because i will not do these with future workouts) single leg calf raises with dumbbell, and for abs i really shook it up by using the back extension thingy to do side crunches using weighs (5, 10, 25lbs) and bent arm hanging leg raises. Not totally brutal today except for the abs but i have it mapped out as to how much i will increase the weight over the three weeks - this is exciting.

Let's look for some super good results for next week's official weigh in.
