Lighterlife Day 7: 2nd Weigh in

Author: Fatboy - Categories: Diet, Weigh Ins, lighterlife - Tags: ,

Well I’ve lost 6.5 pounds in my first week. I’m neither pleased nor displeased! I’m going to up my running to try and get a bit more off I think. The posts for tonight and last night have been lame. I promise to write something decent and worthwhile every day next week.

The other bloke in my lighterlife group has lost 21 pounds in his first 10 days. Thats phenomenal.

Lighterlife Day 4: The first weigh-in

Author: Fatboy - Categories: Diet, Weigh Ins, lighterlife - Tags: , , ,

Well a bit annoyed actually. I’ve kept to the diet strictly but I drank 12 pints of water again. I got weighed and I’ve only lost 2.5pounds in the first four days. The counseller said this is probably down to the amount of water I drank and was still carrying. This means that I’ve got to go this Thursday for another weigh in.

There was only 2 of us men that stayed for the session, the other guy that was there has lost 17 pounds in his first week which is pretty amazing. He’s got more to lose than me and has an active job whereas I sit on me bum all day. I think I’m going to start running again.

So I only lost 2.5 pounds in the first 4 days but I feel like a different person. I had lost 2inches from my chest and 1 from my hips and waist. That part was pretty impressive.

The session itself after was also pretty good and its good to start recognising some of the reasons why we over eat and drink. I think they could be very worthwhile indeed.

I’m just hoping I drop more weight for my next weigh in on Thursday otherwise its a bit demotivating. I’m definitely not drinking more than 6 pints tomorrow.
