Fighting Phat

I need to lose weight and this blog is about my fight against fat. I was 145 kgs (319lbs) at the start of my quest. My goal is to lose 45 kgs (99lbs) of fat. I will be posting my experiences, exercise charts, nutrition plans, and weight on a regular basis to track my progress towards my goal weight of 100 kgs (222lbs). I hope that there are some people out there that might want to join me, post comments, or who may find my blog helpful for any weight loss they may wish to achieve.

Another Half Kilo Loss!



Well, it has been a pretty unusual week for me this week. The sore knee has been the focus and getting right has taken a bit of the sting out of my usual workouts. However, I have still managed to drop half a kilo again, and I am heading down towards the goals that I have set for myself. I am really pleased with my result this week as I was a bit worried that the lack of cardio exercise might have had an adverse impact on the result for this week. I have kept eating fairly normally, however I guess that mighty walk must have done me some good! I am now closing in on the half way mark, and that feels really good.

I had a workout with the trainer this morning and it was back to normal really. There weren't any lunges, but aside from that it was business as usual. I felt that I did pretty well considering, and when she got me to do bench press I pulled out all the stops and went as hard as I used to back when I was lifting a lot of kilos on the press. I could tell that she was surprised by how much I could lift, but as I said to her my back needs work to catch up. She agreed and gave me a couple of back exercises to finish off with. Yay - that'll teach me.

Not much else to report. It is raining here today - undoubtedly everywhere but the catchment areas. Everyone is most concerned about rain here, except me. I love the sunshine and hate it when it is wet and miserable. Apparently we are supposed to get some of the mighty desert storms coming through this weekend, so that could get exciting.

Aside from that, I don't think that we will be up to much this weekend. Trying to save some dosh, and my partner and I will have to sit down at the weekend and see what the budget is looking like as we have a couple of holidays coming up. Yes, a very exciting time at our house this weekend! Never mind, not much chance of coming off the diet doing things like this! Hope you all enjoy your weekend and have the upper in hand in your own fight with phat.
