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!

Weight-loss Surgery

​ This is difficult writing for a number of reasons. Mainly because by logging into blogging apps it has unearthed my previous blogs. These blogs were at a time I was much happier with my weight. Still very much over weight but very different to where I am in life now!  Never the less I will continue to write and document this process.  My weight has spiralled again, the heaviest I have ever been, and now I intend to do something about it on a more physical basis. In 18 days time I fly to Egypt to have bariatric surgery.  I have decided to document the journey and one day may post it for all to see, This is me, this is my journey

Egypt Day One

So I’m writing this while waiting for the aurgery. Im due to go down at 11:30 local time,  So yeaterday was travel day, we decided to leave home around 1am when our families had gone to bed. This was so as I wasnt to tired to drivining at the scheduled 4am we had planned.  We were at heathrow for 3am and ready to go. The airport was fine a little boring but what do you expect when your 6 hours early for your flight!  Then to Egypt! Even as we came into land the country looked old school. Now once we were picked up, the drive to the hospital was an experience! For a couple of says before coming I had this fear that I may die. If it was going to happen it would be this drive! The roads are crazy! No such thing as lanes or order! Every body just weaves in and out depending how fast your going!  Fortunately we survived! Emad was lovely, he checked us in to the hospital and took us down to the laboratory for blood tests. Then accompanied a porter to take us to our rooms. ...

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...
