In Which Fatso Is Resolved

It’s almost a week into 2012 already, can you believe that? On December January 1st, I wrote a couple of personal resolutions in my diary, but I’ve got a couple of health and fitness resolutions that I’d like to hit by the end of the year. Lost at least 50lbs. I usually don’t put numbers [...]

The Zero Excuses Challenge Weigh-In: The Final Weigh-In

-1lbs -14.4lbs(14.4lbs/6.35kg) It’s That Time Of The Month again, so I’m simultaneously dying of cramps, and dying of this cold that I’ve had since last Friday. It’s not a pretty sight. I wish I’d lost more this week, but that’s how it goes when it’s That Time Of The Month; we know that. And I [...]

The Zero Excuses Challenge Weigh-In: Week Six

-2.2lbs -13.4lbs(13.4lbs/6.08kg) Another 2.2lbs down. That’s almost a stone in 5 weeks. Mum pointed that out this morning when I told her I was down another 2.2lbs this week.

The Zero Excuses Challenge Weigh-In: Week Five

-4.2lbs -11.2lbs(11.2lbs/5.08kg) Yay! I’m back down to my original weigh-in weight. I realise that’s not what I should be saying at this point in the challenge, but I’m still thrilled with being 11(.2)lbs down in four weeks. As I head into the fifth week, I’m mostly thinking: I’m really, really exhausted. I honestly didn’t think [...]

The Zero Excuses Challenge Weigh-In: Week Four

+4lbs -7lbs(7lbs/3.18kg) So, as I was expecting, I gained weight this week. I didn’t quite expect to gain four pounds, but I’m dealing with it in the only way I can: I’m keeping going! I’m literally just back from the gym. My sister’s just taken my weekly progress pictures. I’ve just changed out of my [...]
