After a disaster of a weekend on the diet front, im pleased to say that ive gotten my self back into the right frame of mind. 6 small meals a day didnt work for me so im back onto my old methods for loosing weight. I have piled on a few pounds in the last couple of weeks so Ill have to get rid of them before feeling the benefit and continuing with my one year diet. Will i ever have a six pack?
Oh no, Its going terribly terribly wrong. Well ive tried the 6 meals a day and it hasnt worked. Ive put back on 5lbs. So im heading back to what I know and that is fewer meals. I just need to put my head into the right state and it will be over by xmas. Cycled 200 miles, walked for 3 lunch breaks, put on 5 lbs.
well im very impressed with my fitness even if my weight has done a U-turn. On Saterday and Sunday I cycled 140 miles across England through the lake district and over the penines. I just couldnt eat enough food to power my legs at times but all of the pain was worth it to complete my 2 day journey. I have no idea what this will have done for my weight but Ill see on Friday. I dont think my 6 meals a day diet is working at all and so i will be going back to my normal routine of 3 meals. Keep moving.
I cannot believe I worked so hard all last week and then through it away over the weekend. The only good thing to come out of the binge is that my strength is up and I was able to work harder at the gym tonight. Not really how I want things to be going at this stage. I also have to start I think its called "Carb loading" in preperation for riding from the irish sea to the north sea next weekend. It is far more important then that ive built my strength up for that than any thing else so i think WI on friday will be a bit of a rise. Ill only be cycling tommorow and then the bike is out and the car is in till Friday. I was looking at my tracker and the chasing ball seems ever so close to the running ball. I had my first thoughts of giving up today but ill kick my own arse if that happens again. Keep moving.
So im 7 days into my last 100 hundred and ive seen the benefits of being stringent om my diet. 2 Lbs down which is about what I expected. Ive cycled 75miles on my bike and walked for 4 lunch times. Ive also been to the gym 4 times. The thing is Im sure that I will carry forward some of this weeks efforts and be lighter again next friday. One thing that may hamper my loss is that next week end im cycling from one side of England to the other and so I will only ride Mon and Tue of next week and also start eating plenty of pasta on Wed Thu and Friday. This should give the kind of energy that im going to require to do the journey. I think it will be about 70miles a day for 2 days or 45 miles for 3 days ill wait and see how it goes. Its my first long ride so i dont know how I will be doing it. I think at last my body shape is starting to go to the shape I want it to be.
I joined a gym on Saterday and have been a couple of times now. Its not the same as the one I was going to previously which was a bit of a fashion and lifestyle poser gym. This is one that doesnt have fancy lights and MTV but the equipment works and thats the important thing. When I first got there I looked around and there are some very dedicated weight lifters and I certainly felt a bit lacking in muscle compared to them. There are also a few larger women that are using the bikes and stepers. Now my point is this. I felt self conciouse that perhaps I didnt belong in the gym because Im not a big muscular guy, but when I looked at the larger women I thought good for them that they are trying to loose some weight and take up a healthier life style. So the gym is for any body because we all have our own reasons for being there and so dont feel self consiouse about going. Cycled 15 miles. Walked for 30 mins. Ate 6 small meals.
For the very first time I have tried the 6 small portions per day In my diet and it is harder than not eating. I was under the impression that it kept your sugars at a constant level and this meant that you didnt feel hungry. The oposite has happened to me and I really feel hungry. If I had started a diet this way then I dont think that I would be able to continue. Its only because Im a good way through my overall diet that I think I have the stamina to make it through this first week. I also became very shakey on my bike on the way home but was much better once I had arrived. After tea, I made it to the gym and have a had another good workout. lots of situps and abdominal exercises. I feel physically very good.
I feel really good, I can hardly type after the workout ive just done and my arms are like lead. I had my first day of a 6 small meals a day diet. It was more difficult than I expected as I felt fairly weak all day which i was supprised about. Many times this year ive eaten nothing during the day because I havent gotten around to making lunch and have felt alot better than I did today. I dont know if this is because of a change in metabalism or not but if I can stick with it then Ill be able to see if it works for me. I cycled 15 miles today and walked about 2 miles. My highlight on my walk was eating black berries which are really ripe now in the bushes that we walk past. Im feeling good about the next 97 days.
I managed to resist chocolate cake today. I did have a hotdog as we had been shopping to ikea. overall im happy with todays food intake especially for the weekend. I will be improving on this through the next week. No exercise today but ill be back on my bike in the morning. Its been an I feel thin day today.
Although it was supposed to start yesterday, It all went wrong and I ended up eating fish and chips on the beach down on the south coast. Today however I feel like im getting somewhere and am back on track. I did an hour workout in the gym and cycled 9miles to the gym and back. Chicken for dinner Cycled 5 days, Walked 4 days. up 3 lbs.
