Weight 2011 - Week 18

Good saturday morning

Well, another week has flown by in my "new" life. Had another ok week. A big challenge this week was a 2 day conference about project management. Luckily it was a healthy conference with some training and no alcohol. Got the chance to try some pilates (ball) exercises, some yoga (i like !) and even some american football. Learnt a bit about myself aswell, which is also a good thing.

A milestone this week was that i finally started running. This far only twice (due to the conference), but will be out again today. The coming 9 weeks, i should be able to train up to a 5 km run.

Trainingwise i am coming to the end of the fist schedules. Under next week i'll have to do the final 100 pushups test and 200 situps test. That is going to hurt i think.

Expected my weight to go quicker this week with all activities. However the weightgods decided on the same level as last week. That means a loss of 0,8 kg again and a total of 27,8. Still 1,8 kg to go too 100 kg which i really want to clear before visiting holland in 2 weeks. If only i could make 0,9 coming 2 weeks... And.. Finally over halfway. 27,2 to go !

People seem to notice quite a bit now. I am in the "explain a lot" phase now where if someone asks or comments, i go on and on about weight loss. Can imagine that is quite tiring, but hey, i need to talk about it for inspiration/motivation.. Can only ask for patience. Anyhow, people seem a bit shocked when i mention what i lost and how much is left. Maybe i hid my weight quite well ? Another thing is that now people start noticing that i am quite a small guy...

Coming week is a busy one again. Have to catch up at work, 2 mc lessons and a talk at the bank (redoing our loans in order to build a garage). Besides that 3 runs and 3 times strenght training. Going to be a challenge to combine family-logistics, work and training..

Have a wonderfull weekend//Geert

Heyhey,
Ook Breda volgt met argusogen jouw gewichtsverlies. Ik blijf het knap vinden.... Je moeder heeft gelijk over voorzichtig zijn op de motor. Ik heb er hier een die dat hopelijk ook is. Maar... bij al dat harde werken en lijnen en trainen hoort ook een beetje plezier anders is het niet vol te houden.
Groeten vanuit een zeer zonnig Breda van Annita
