Weight 2011 - week 29 - restart after the holidays

Well, my plan to be strict during the holidays backfired. It was ok the first weeks and at idre fjäll. The last 2 weeks at home were a disaster though due to various reasons. Let's just say that food is still stress relief for me. That risk is still there....

The week before this week motivation was quite bad. No food in the house was safe and running did not happen. Think i managed to go up almost 3 kg in that week.... :(( like an alcoholic, i still cannot trust myself and will have to watch that.

The last week went a bit better though. I lost about half of what i gained and did my running. Managed to run 5 km and 35 minutes straight non stop. That means "couch to 5 k" is finished. I will now start to train for 8 km nonstop running.

The scale said 100,2 this morning. Total loss 29,4 and 25,2 to go.

Well, up on the horse again and hopefully a good rest of the summer and autumn.

Hope you have/had a wonderfull holiday. Will report again in a week.

All the best//Geert

Idre fjäll day 3

A very wet day today.

Went rafting in norway with jennifer today. Jenny and elin joined in the car.

Got instructions, wetsuit, lifevest and helmet at the river. Then we started with 6 in a boat on a lake. Once the lake ended and the river began things became very exciting. So much fun! Jenny and elin took some pictures.




Yes, we look funny in wetsuits




Here we go

Back in idre we spent the rest of the afternoon in the pool. First time for elin in an indoor pool.

Finished the evening at pernilla wibergs hotels restaurant. Good food!

Now back at the cottage and exhausted. Tomorrow a new day, maybe grovelsjön ?

Idre fjäll day 2

Another busy day. Started this morning with a 5 km run. Did another track than yesterday to avoid hills. Failed, as this course was way worse! Managed 30 minutes straight running for the first time!

Then we spent the day at fulufjell and visited njuperkär, sweden highest waterfall.

Finished off with some swimming. Just back now, longing for a coffee and some rest.

For tomorrow we booked a rafting excursion in norway. Exciting...
