Fatbusting: Fester's Log
-
I can only say what works for me, but small targets for the week motivates me. Say like go x number of times, and once there beat your last time on the rowing machine, etc. And keep track of your results so you can see progress.<br />
<br />
Depends if you are a competitive sort or not I guess. -
Had weetabix and a banana for breakfast. <br />
<br />
Had a big sandwich for lunch. Pancetta and proscuitto with a bit of fontina. Not really what you want to do when you lose weight, but I think it's more than doable with a light dinner.<br />
<br />
Had training after that. I basically hate rugby at the moment, but it was good to have a tackling drill tonight...<br />
<br />
Dinner was salmon with a baked potato and some cauliflower. Bit of low-fat sour cream on the potato for flavour, nothing too bad. Not bad I think. Haven't had a fizzy drink or alcohol since I started. <br />
<br />
Will try to get in some gym work before class tomorrow, if not, then I'll do it after. -
Hi fellas. Thought I had a good week this week. Ate more responsibly, worked out more, so I think I lost some weight going into the weigh in tomorrow.<br />
<br />
One of the few good things about getting fuckin' clocked during a game is it kept me off the post-match piss and burgers, ended up having a slice of pizza (very light on the cheese, which is the source of the fat and the way I like it anyway) and water instead. Feel a bit thinner too. -
Two weeks in, and now I weigh 126.2 kgs. Really good start so far.
-
Keep it up Fester. Don't forget to give yourself a day off every now and then.<br />
<br />
And when you get down to about 115kg, go find that guy that hit you from behind the ruck the shit right out of him when the opportunity presents itself <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> -
Another week, another KG and change off. 125.3 kg now.<br />
<br />
Oh, and Once were Warriors is on TV. -

Hard to tell. Yeah, I guess so. Wore an XXL shirt today..was fairly loose on the old tyre. <br />
<br />
God, Once Were Warriors is farkin depressing (never seen it before). I need a drink!!! -

Pants were really loose yesterday. I liked it!<br />
<br />
Had two cheat days in a row here. Understandable when you lose half a stone so quickly, since I think the back of your mind tells you that you can eat more and still lose weight, but time to get back on the wagon tomorrow with more disciplined meals.<br />
<br />
I have a threeday weekend so I'm going to try to get the gym at least twice. -
Just played about forty minutes of football. Ran all over the pitch, so good cardio workout there.<br />
<br />
I was pretty good at setting up goals as well, which probably says a lot about the standard of football being played of a 120 kg man could play midfield general. -
Got back on the saddle today with my first match since the broken nose.<br />
<br />
Did pretty well. Didn't have many carries or tackles but really hit the rucks well and wheeled the opposition scrum constantly. Unfortunately they had the best maul I've ever played against and fought out an outstanding draw - 36-36. <br />
<br />
Even drank light beer during the post-match. Ooh er. -
Back.<br />
<br />
In.<br />
<br />
Black.<br />
<br />
Spent two out of the past four days in the gym with punishing workouts. Today's was particularly needed since work sucked bigtime and I needed to work out the stress, and I feel mellow as a hippy now. Can feel the biceps bulging. Still a ways off my goal weight but on the right track again. <br />
<br />
Watched a pretty interesting thing about metabolisms tonight and all the shit we put in ourselves that hurts it. Think it may have put me off having a breakfast during the Aussie-SA match at the pub - may go eat muesli at home instead, toss in some almonds and be set for several hours. <br />
<br />
Not giving up my Guinness though...
