So… I’ve dipped under 20 stone at 19 stone 13lb.
I’ve noticed the weight it in a number of ways - I don’t get out of breath so easy, I’ve gone down a jean size, and some shirts I bought ages ago now fit.
I’m onto doing around 10-11 miles every time I get on the trainer, and getting up into my fat burning heart rate zone is harder than before - in other words I am getting fitter. Not by much, but it’s a start.
My diet has certainly changed.
Breakfast is 2 shredded wheat with no sugar and skimmed milk.
Lunch is usually tuna (without mayo) with salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, celery, carrot, low fat coleslaw and low fat potato salad).
Dinner is usually chicken breast / turkey breast / tuna steak / salmon fillet with fresh veg and either brown rice or jacket potato.
However, this week has been tough. My financee has just had her 34th birthday, so we have cake, Cadbury’s Roses, Toblerone, Malteasers and Minstrels in the house! On her birthday, we had a curry - my first in months. However, I did 12 miles on the trainer before eating it, just to ensure it wasn’t all bad!
I can still hear the Toblerone calling my name though. Must resist…
