Weekly Weigh-In 2006-03-19 March 19, 2006

Weekly weight loss chart for 19 March 2006My weekly weight loss figure has slowed right down this week. Partly it’s because of things we’ve had on (parties, dinners with friends/family, functions at work, etc), partly it’s that I’ve been doing less exercise, and partly I’ve just slacked off and lost discipline a bit. At least it’s still heading in the right direction, I guess.

I woke up this morning with a sore throat and the beginnings of a flu. The kids seem to enjoy collecting new communicable diseases at day care/school and bringing them home to share with the rest of the family. That’ll probably kill my exercise for the next few mornings, but I’m hoping to get the diet back under control to make up for it.

The good news is that I’m now 10 kg (22 lbs) lighter than when I decided to lose weight in December. That’s an achievement I’m proud of, and I don’t want to let my weight slip back into triple-digit figures now! I’m way fitter than I used to be, too – I ran 3 km yesterday without walking or stopping.

While I haven’t achieved my goals yet, I’m significantly healthier than I was 3 months ago and I’m motivated to see how much better it’s going to get.

Great blog (colds and flu always stuff up my regular exercise plan I agree). Good luck on the program and thanks very much for submitting your link to AustralianBlogs.com.au

Thanks Jon! I’m getting there slowly but steadily.
