This morning I was proud to be in the gym and on the cross-trainer at 7:30am. Not quite as impressive as it may sound, as in old money it would have been 8:30am, but it felt good nonetheless. Especially as my wife was still in bed recovering from her night out, and my head was clear as a bell.
So anyway, I'm going to cut to the chase. I've just weighed myself, and am delighted to be able to say that I've lost another 10lb in the last week!
Week 0 Week 1 Week 2
Body Fat 32.8% 29.4% 27.4%
Muscle Mass 33.9% 35.2% 35.8%
Weight 16st 7lb 15st 7lb 14st 11lb
This means that I've now lost 24lb in a fortnight - only 4lb off losing 2 stone - and lost 16.5% of the body fat I was carrying. So much more than I had hoped for in such a relatively short space of time (although in many ways it feels like bloody ages!)
I googled 24lb to see if I could find something to visualise how much I've lost in the last 14 days. And I found this:
Yes, this is a 24lb carp. So I've lost a huge freaking fish in weight - ironically, from mainly eating lots of his relatives.
I'm now really excited to find out how much more I could lose with another 6 weeks to go on my regime.
Good luck to Vikki and Christine who are joining the challenge from Monday. I hope you find it as life-changing an experience as I am right now!
14 days gone... only 42 to go!
