Day 22 - Weigh In Tonight - Watch This Space

by Bill Wallace on April 29, 2008

Tonight’s weigh in won’t be good. In fact, I’m predicting a 250+gm increase in weight.

The devastating thing is this:

The last 3 days I have worked my legs off in running and now swimming to try and undo the “sins of Melbourne”. And I don’t think it’s going to work completely. It’s the “revelation I had to have” I suppose.

Below I’ve listed the exercise I have completed while in Melbourne and on my return and you’ll see tonight that, even with all that effort, it hasn’t taken off all the weight I put on while away for three measly days!

This all simply goes to reinforce how poorly I ate and what I have to do to counterbalance that type of diet.

I hope my mistake can prevent you from doing the same.

Okay, here’s what happened since last Wednesday:

Starting weight: 84.3kg

Wednesday morning: 4km walk/run

Wednesday meals: 3 course meal at “the deanery” in Melbourne

Thursday morning: walked around Melbourne “briskly” but no distance or time measured

Thursday meals: Weight Watchers breakfast bar, water; Italian pasta for dinner + 2 beers

Thursday exercise: 30 mins on treadmill

Friday meals: eggs, tomato, mushrooms, bacon (yes, I know! :( )

Friday exercise: walk to War Memorial for ANZAC Day parade. Didn’t measure distance, around 4kms I’d think. 30 mins on treadmill at night, jogged 4kms in 23:20.

Saturday: 4km walk

Sunday: 8 km walk; 400m swim, kept to diet

Monday: 8 km walk; 2 x 400m swim, kept to diet

Tuesday (today): 650m swim

Okay, with all that and just 3 (count THREE!) meals outside of diet guidelines, I think my weight will go up at tonight’s weigh in!

I’d be happy to stay the same but I think the possibility of that is slim.

See the weight graph on thr right? I’ve entered my expectation now. Check back tomorrow and see the formal update. :(
