It's been 6 weeks since I posted any Photos or a blog. Partly it's been disappointment at how stagnant things have become. Partly it's that I have not really been focussing on losing weight. I have been settling into a "end of the journey" phase where I live life, enjoy exercise and eat healthy most of the time. Well, at least thats how I see MY "end of the journey" life being.
So now I've kind of gone back to basics. Focusing on eating healthy ALL the time, Being far more structured with my exercise regime. And letting that fitness drive, drive my eating habits! So far so good.....and feeling much better physically and mentally for it.
Positives and Negatives of the last six weeks:
+ Ran my first Half Marathon in an awesome 2hrs 3min. Far better than I had hoped for when I decided to do one in May, but even faster than I was hoping for 2 months ago. Not quite the agressive target I set before the race, but I'm not at all disappointed with that. Very Very happy with my time!
+ It's kind of a week "positive" to slip in, but I'm really happy that I'm still about the same weight that I was 7 weeks ago. I've had some gains and losses, and even been as low as my lowest ever in the middle of these 6 weeks. So it's not got completely out of hand.
- Not been focussed and been very weak at saying NO to a lot of the sugary or fatty "nice" things that I have avoided for the last 15 months. Really need to get over that and get back on track with the will power to say no...that I know I have!
Goals for this week:
1) Keep at 100% Food Optimising!
2) Make a habit of saying NO to excuses to go "Off Plan"
3) Complete my 6 day cycling week for the first time in Months! and repeat next week!
No official mini target set this week, I'd like to lose 6 to be at my lowest again, 7 to set a new low would be better, but I'll settle for a 3 or 4 lbs (1.36 or 1.81 kg) loss!
