Since Christmas I have gotten very religious. Whoops! I mean very religious about my eating habits. I constantly watch my overall intake of calories, try to get most of my protein from chicken, fish or beans, keep my fat intake reasonable, consume very little alcohol, and even stopped eating ice cream bars before bed!
And finally I think it's working. I am just approximating but I truly believe that since the start of the year I have actually lost 4 or 5 ounces of body fat!! Yup! At least 1/4 of a pound! I think?
Despite the frustration I am not prepared to give up. Somehow I still believe that if I maintain my discipline it will eventually come off. Despite the neglible change in the bathroom scale I do feel thinner, and that's what's supposed to matter anyway eh?
I'm pretty sure I'll lose a little weight tomorrow as I plan on a 30 km run. I need some decent weather though and right now it doesn't look great. The weatherman suggests snow, and fairly strong winds. Let's hope not!
Friday is usually my longer swim day bit I couldn't pit it together today. I was fairly agressive with my weights last night and my arms were simply tired. I did get the 2 kms in but with little breaks every 500 metres. It's all good!
(swim 2000 metres....slow)
