Today was a good day.
It was weigh in time and after my business trips I felt like I was back on track. As I drove away from the office on my way to Jenny Craig’s for the weigh in I was thinking 500g would be good as a “loss”.
To maintain some consistency I always try and wear similar clothes and ensure my shoes are off and pockets are empty as I step on the scale. And because I am trying to increase my water intake I also try and go to the bathroom (i.e. toilet) before I weigh in. I hadn’t had that much water today so didn’t bother.
Okay, enough preamble … 81.2kg … a loss of 700g!
So, a good day, a good weigh in and, had I gone to the “loo”, it would have dropped another 300g (I went when I got home.) Okay this post is turning gross. Sorry folks!
Forward Planning
I’m beginning to plan the weekend, so here’s an update of the immediate few days activities:
Friday Night: 100 Push Ups, Week 2, Day 3 - 69 in total
Saturday: 500 m swim (this will get me to 1.5km against a 5km target for the month. Not where I want to be but not bad from someone who never used to swim at all)
Sunday: 5km run and try to break 23:00. This will take some mental resolve as I know there’s no pressure to do so. There’s nothing riding on it and just doing a 5km run is a good thing.
Sunday Evening: 100 Push Ups Challenge: Interim Test - do as many push ups as I can
Monday: Back to Jacob’s Ladder - not a fan of the ladder but it’ll help when I do the City to Surf, so I just have to suck it in!
I hope you’re going well.
Bill

Good stuff on the loss. I personally prefer the old nude first thing in the morning weigh in but I guess that’s not an option with your program.
True, true. When I first did the morning weigh in I felt I was cheating in some way but, when you have clothes on you will obviously weigh more and that isn’t the true weight, so nude is the way to go really.
But you’re right, I’m not sure how the folks at JC would react to a middle aged man stripping down to his boxers at least! LOL
