Week *19: weigh in November 13, 2006

Filed under: Weekly weigh in — 10000steps @ 5:42 pm

Yes, I will start reporting daily again. I had a few new projects I needed to focus on.  

I know I have been absent! However, this doesn’t mean I let myself go, stopped working out and am a regular at Mickey D’s. Au contraire mes amis! I have been a regular good girl. Still spending 40 minutes of weight training, 200 crunches, 40 minutes of cross training for cardio and this on a daily basis, 6 days a week. My eating patterns that I have been reporting about, haven’t changed. Though I make a few exceptions here and there. Also spent a couple of days away from home, and for 4 days ate everything my little heart desired….and lost weight!!!!

Week 17: I hit 72.7 Kg’s, not a whole lot, this was largely caused by a lot of muscle toning that week. I even still dropped a clothes size because of this. I am loving the strength training, as it seems to shape my body in a good way.

Week 18:  despite me indulging in a lot more food due to a bunch of celebrations and visiting other peoples house, I hit 72.2 Kg’s. (This is an estimate as I wasn’t able to weigh myself on Sunday itself)

Weight lost this week:  1 kg (2.2 pounds)

Current weight: 71.2 Kg (156.64 pounds)

Weight at last weigh in: 72.2 Kg (158.84 pounds)

Weight already lost since start*: 18.9 kg (41.58 pounds)

Amount of weight to goal weight: 4.2 Kg (9.24 pounds)

Goal weight: 67 Kg (148 lbs)

Starting weight*: 90.1 (198.22 lbs)….as I started this blog too late and hadn’t weight myself since the 80s, I actually started at at 95 Kg’s approximately (209 pounds.) But to make it an exact science, I am going to take the first official weigh in at 90.1 Kg.

Weight to loose from starting weight*: 23,1 Kg (50.82 lbs)

Number of days of good eating habits this week:  4 days (I was out of town.)

Additional comments on eating: Sunday to Tuesday I was visiting a friend, and ate everything my heart desired.

Daily 10.000 steps: Nop

4 days of working out: YES, I did 4

Daily 2 liters of water: Nop not while I was visiting my friend…..I did make up with drinking wine. :)

Daily breakfast: YES

Highs: Still loosing weight while eating everything my heart desired. I think my responsible eating patterns and not starving myself, is preventing me to gain every calory I put on a pizza.

Lows: I can’t complain. Though it is hard to stay away from snacking.

* I started my program almost 3 weeks before the first weigh in (week 0), but as I can’t be specific I will not count progress for the officially looking stats and monitoring. So week 0 is really week 3. I think I probably lost between 1 and 2 kilo’s a week before week 0.
