Weekly Round Up

So its been 1 week of the Bali 3.0

Reading through the JSAM page there has been some fantastic starts! 

Personally I set my self a target to lose 30lbs over the 12 weeks. Now anyone following JSA will know that weighing yourself is something of less importance and instead using measurements and pictures to monitor progress.

However for someone being so obese the numbers really matter. I started this challenge weighing an average of 408.5lbs.

I say average as I weigh every day and then work out the weeks average. This is for mainly reasons that James talks about. The body alters weight hourly based on water intake, food eaten etc. 

So doing it daily gives me a truer reflection on current weight, although still never going to be completely accurate.

This week I averaged 403.7lbs, almost 5lbs weight lose. 

I did also take body measurements and I have lost around 13.5 inches over those measurements.

Sounds good right?! 

Damn right its fucking good! I have worked my ass off for this! 

I managed to nail all my daily goals, logged all my food, got 5 hours sleep minimum and insta took off well. I’d still like to be more active on there and do some videos of me talking.... BUT I’m from Gloucestershire in the great South West and well.. I sound like a farmer!

My weekly goals were almost completely achieved. I did 3 times in the gym nailing my JSA workout. I actually missed out on my 60000 steps, and to be honest I was going to give some ball shit like, “Well I actually swam twice which should make up for the 5000 shortfall” but who am I kidding! There were two days I was a lazy fuck and never went for that extra walk.

The one where my kids benefit from an Ice Cream! 

However in all I’m happy. Infact I’m over the fucking moon. 

Week one completed, week two brings more challenges, more moans and maybe another bakes midweek blog!

Gravity....

Its time again for Wednesday wisdoms This week I am looking at our relationship wkth the earth! I’m not talkjg about Greta Thunberg and Eco friendly products!! I’m talking about the effect gravity has on us and what we call weight Throughout my weightloss journey I have focused on what the scales say. There was a time I would get caught up on what it said and whether I have lost weight or not. However this has changed How? Well for one I weigh every day, fiest thing in the morning I log each days weights and then I take an average each sunday and compare that to the previous weeks average Why? I do this because I understand that weight changes several times thriughout the day based on so many factors Water retention Bowel movements When I last ate Etc So if I only weigh once a week there is a chance it could be affected by by any one of these factors Here’s an example... Monday I weigh 436 and then the following Monday I weighed 437 So I gained 1lbs right??  WRONG !! Because I took an

Boredom

This week I have been off work for almost two weeks and to be honest I am fucking bored My intentions were to use the time to get back in the gym, something I was struggling with previously My thinking was to go during the day when others are working as its not as busy and I can start to remember why I liked going without the anxiety I create about being there However the national lockdown kicked in, so instead I had two weeks at home and my plans changed and I didnt adapt!  The over powering thought of cupboards full of food while I am counting calories and trying to avoid it all This was emphasised by boredom!!  Having nothing substantial to occupy  my mind led to me struggling! Picking on foods I wouldnt of been ofherwised worried about and needing to reach out for support The mind is a powerful thing and it seems that mine needs to be occupied in order to stop me reaching for food!

Daddies day delight

Always time for Dad... Sometimes I to remind myself if that! Today I have adored, woken by my kids. Breakfast out as a family and then visiting loved ones Even taking a trip to the local cremitorium to lay flowers for those no longer with us With all that said and done I had to remind myself to take the time for me. Getting to the gym andhitting that work out Turned out to be a really good session.. plenty ofsweat, and tears Thats right.... tears!  During my slog on the treadmill I doubted myself, I had forgotten my Why!  I was ready to give up, walk away and make an excuse. But the I remembered... I’ve commited to something, I promised myself to create a better me. To work hard and be proudof my achievements!  So how did I pull myself through? I’ve recently set myself a target, not a weightloss target but something to achieve!  I’m going to do a super sprint triathlon 400m of swimming, 10km of cycling and then 2.5km of running All in one go, at one event This pushed me on, dragged me
