From Fat Slob To Fit Triathlete

This weight is becoming an obsession so don’t worry I am aware and I will return to the real world shortly.

So the weigh in lost 2 ½ lb. Yes, that’s correct LOST 2 ½ lb!

Just humour me please.

I think.. my body desperately needed calories last week. If I can eat and drink everything that I did and still lose weight then I must have been in some kind of deprivation mode?

I am totally focussed and committed now. I realise I can’t, much as I love it, survive on cottage cheese salad.

I’m organised enough now to have my oatibix breakfast, please tell me does anyone else have the same problem with it soaking up about a pint of milk? Slight exaggeration there. The other thing is I thought it was erm supposed to er keep you regular? It’s had the opposite effect on me.

Lunch is my thick seedy, nutty wholemeal bread (2 slices) with ham today and a separate salad and fruit.

Dinner will be chicken with new potatoes and fresh veg.

This was basically what I said at basically this time last week and then disaster struck except that:-

1.      I’ve had breakfast

2.      I’ve had a generous portion of bread that I really like

3.      I understand now that I am exercising “a lot” and need fuel

I was extremely positive and motivated last week. I am extremely positive and motivated now plus I have learned from last week’s let’s not say mistakes but experience.

Thea I take on board everything you say and really am very apprecaitive of your advice and support - I am an athlete and i will start eating like one.
