The First Weigh In

So last night was the first weigh in. I was feeling confident as I feel thinner. Not significantly I just feel a different shape. WII Fit was generous but doesn't tell you the actual weight. It did however announce that I've lost a whole 2lb! Not significant I hear you cry, until you realise that I lady used it before Christmas. Not bad to be through the Christmas podge, lost it and lost 2lb to boot! Good times!

Good Day Bad Day

Wednesday was part good day and part bad day. On the good side I started the day with a session in the gym. Bit of a run and a bit of cross training set me up well for the day. On the bad side it was Chinese day a school so lunch was heavier than it should have been. I think I may delay the weigh in for a bit!

Tomorrow looks to start well with a 7:30 gym session with Steve the Pirate. We shall see!

Ok Kebab Man

Diet day two. No run this morning, but I've had a nice healthy bowl of cereal. Whilst I'm eating ice been listening to the news. Aparently some bids at the food standards agency have done some research into kebabs. They've discovered that in many cases donor kebabs are very high on fat, contain a mix of meat and aren't correctly labelled... Lucky I know now! I wonder how you get a job with them. It definitely sounds like they've been out for a beer and decided to do research on the way home!

Bye Bye Fatty

It's time for a change. I've been trying to lose weight for a while now, without much luck. Di's bought me a book by Bruce Byron (That guy from The Bill) which is all about his struggle to lose weight. For him the biggest motivator was a column he wrote for The Daily Mail health section. This meant his every move was scrutinised by the whole country, which in turn meant he couldn't fail because it would be so public. I don't have a column in the Mail. Nor do I expect to get one soon. So this is the best I can do. Anyone that reads this will be my motivation. Chances are that that's only my wife and my mum, but I'll give it a shot!

So it's 6:50am. I've just been for my first pre work run. I don't feel too bad, but then I'm not sure I want run any further for a while. I'll try and update this a few times a week to keep a running commentary!

Wish me luck!
