OK, now we’re getting serious.
Again.
Have done the measurements again, in the proper way, so there may seem to be a big jump from the last time in some respects—actually, less than I expected although my chest lost half an inch in there somewhere.
My new goal is to lose 5lbs by Pride, so that’s down to 180lbs in just over 3 wks. Well, 20 days from now actually, but over 3 wks from the start date of last Thursday or Friday. I did well with my workouts last week, getting in 3 HIIT sessions and two good weight-training sessions. I would ideally like to add in a long, consistent intensity cardio session to this as well of 45-60 minutes.
My nutrition strategy is just to be more strict. Weekends are the big problem. I will spend the next two weekends being more careful with what I eat and not just snacking on whatever’s to hand because it’s there. The same goes for alcohol: drinks are only acceptable on one night a week.
I’m setting longer-term goals as well, to see me right through to our departure for the UK in August–so that’s 12 weeks. I’ve got vague goals sketched out for that 12 weeks but I will re-evaluate these at the end of June.
