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 average my average was down from 436.2 to 434.6

Monitoring weight in such a way I feel is mich more accurate.. however you do have to be prepared

Prepared that some days may show higher than others

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. ...

Back to Basics

So over a year has passed since I last wrote on here, to be honest I dont think anyone even reads it but its a place to put my thoughts and reflect. My weights increased and I am back at 430ish lbs and miserable! My coat doesnt fit, my chino’s are tight and I refuse to buy anything new. I started the recent JSA challenge and currently finishing week 4, nope maybe 5! Arghhhhh what ever its almost the end of the week!  Anyway, I digress I’ve been back tracking food properly since the start of this challenge and started a 10 day tune up that Jamie Alderton which really engaged me! So I bit the bullet and jumped on board his santa shred challenge. 6 weeks of working along side Jamie and only a week in I can already see the impact its having. He’s really got me to look inside myself from a mental prospective, writing daily jingle journals and taking time to reflect. With this and the help from JSA coach chat with Sinead Quinn, previous winner and PT for JSA she prompted me to think of t...

The results are in...

James has the tough task of going through what are some amazing transformations to pick his winner(s) This was my first challenge and despite what the outcome is I am a winner..  I was always going win. Thats a bold statement to make isn’t it?!  Calling myself a winner when so many others have done incredibly well.  But hear me out... My weight is something I had come to terms with and accepted the fact I was overweight.  I was a happy go lucky person, I’d laugh with friends. Confident and generally happy how I was.. or so I thought.  I started my journey back in November, stumbled across James’s podcasts and then took to JSA. This challenge has given me a target.. something to focus my attention on and a reason to learn and educate myself. Overcoming so many fears during the past 12 weeks and managing to complete so many NSV along the way.  But the main reason I am a winner is that only last week I considered the fact I may not actu...
