First of May – My New Way

Thanks Angel! Sometimes the other swimmers look at me a lot, I sound like a goat in labour when I try to keep doing one lane à minute LOL
 
I too have been on a three day stall. No scale movement even though I have been spot on with eating and exercise. I am just gonna string some more days together....something's gotta give soon!
 
We'll get there Brawny, I just saw your nice furniture workout! - and I realized that even though my weight was lower a week ago my volume hasn't been lower for years and I actually did notice that yesterday on my clothing.
 
Always hard when the scales are showing no result for a few days, but just stick to the plan, and soon the scales will have good news again!
 
At least my meassurements are smaller than 'ever' and that makes me more pleased than scale movements, I discovered.
Did the same gym program today as Tuesday and there were already improvements on the treadmill and abs work.
 
I re claimed a belt loop this morning. that felt good. Also has anyone noticed that you have lost? Thats a really good one.
 
One loop down is great!
A couple of people have noticed my weight loss, it takes quite a lot when my size. I have lost about 12 kg now and I cannot wait getting to my first 25 kg loss and do a picture compare.
In profile I doubt it shows much, but looking in the wall to wall mirror in the swim bath shows a lot fat gone from waist area and some from hip area.
 
Morning: (part 1, got up 4.30) one wholegrain cracker with low fat turkey salami, radishes, a tomato, grapes, a small vegan café au lait and a glass of coke zero 125. Part 2 buckwheat bread with honey, cucumber and grapes 150.
Snack: banana and avocado 125.
Lunch: vegan protein shake 150, aspargus soup with wholegrain bun 280.
Snack: fruit salad 250.
Dinner: rice noodles and lamb chops with mushrooms and leek 475.
Total: 1555
Fluids: 2,9 l water
 
Still same weight, almost a little laugh now. But I went for the meassure tape and believe it or not I have lost almost an inch waist and an inch beneath breasts since yesterday.
Oh and gained slightly on thighs...
All muscles are sore, I have been doing two hours of intense exercise four days in a row and am on my way to the swim bath for another 2 km and aqua stretching program. Body is probably a little confused and adapting to the new workouts.
Thinking about letting the meassure tape and scale stay in the locker the rest of the week to not obsess about it.
 
Good call! You know you're killing it with the workouts, there's no need for confirmation from the scales every day.
Keep going, you're doing a great job!
 
I'll weigh in Monday, and will do my gym program tomorrow and depending whether the gym is crowded Sunday morning I will either do one hour treadmill or a nice long 1-2 hour walk in the forest.
Did my 2 km swimming today at same pace as Wednesday and now I have just spent 2 hours cleaning my mother's bath room.
Only had 750 cals so far, guess I'm in for a feast later at dinner :D
 
Morning: buckwheat bread with liver paté, cucumber and a tomato, vegan café au lait 225.
Snack: vegan protein shake 154.
Lunch: wholegrain bun with honey, half a avocado 275.
Snack: 2 cans of pepsi max and 8 corn cakes 150.
Dinner: pork tenderloin, almonds and veggies in curry, garden salad and potatoes from my father's garden 680.
Total: 1484
Fluids: 2,5 l water
 
Thanks angel.
It's 9am and I am on the couch having my protein shake, done my 2 hours of gym.
Treadmill was hard today, perhaps because I just rolled out of bed, ate a banana and went for the gym.
 
I just checked the thread, Tuesday I was 137,7 and to be honest I will be a bit disappointed if weight not is below 137. However measures are still at their lowest, had to recheck this morning..

Morning: before gym banana 100, after gym protein shake 150.
Snack: leftovers and half a avocado 250.
Lunch: chocolate 80, café au lait 30, wholegrain crackers and a bun with paté, one tomato and radishes 300.
Snack: watermelon and apple 150
Dinner: chili sin carne 260, mushrooms 50, sundried apricots 140.
Total: 1510
Fluids: 2,7 l water
 
Love your exercise level, keept it up, you're doing great. Hope the scales will also tell you that, but hey, there's always those measurements that are telling you how well you're doing!
 
Thanks guys!
Losing inches beats losing weight, so no matter what the scale says in the morning, this has been a very good week, not only have I been losing a couple of inches, I have also gotten myself a two hour program that I have been doing three times and simply LOVE being a gym user.
