Wayne G (99) (31.3.2010)

Another day of boring, but effective running. 40 minutes on treadmill, followed by four sets of inclined bench presses.

I will remain under 89 kg. Happy happy joy joy!

Basic aerobic (98) (30.3.2010)

On Tuesday I did my pretty usual aerobic crap. Once again I was tired, but I'm sure I don't want to bore you with that same crap again.

I did 35 minutes on the treadmill and 15 minutes on the xtrainer. This got me below 89 kg for the first time.

Thursday and the weekend (95, 96, 97) (25.-28.3.2010)


I seem to be updating this blog pretty lazily.

On Thursday I was tired, but had to try to make Friday weigh'ing be below 90 kg. After 30 minutes on the AMT, 15 minutes on the bike and four sets of abs I weighed 89,6 kg on Friday.

On Sarurday we ate some fried garbage for lunch. This made our hour of badminton just about as sucky as possible.

Today was better. I spent an hour on the treadmill and 15 minutes on the bike. Most likely I will be below Friday's weight tomorrow. That'll be a good start for the Easter week. I'm hoping to close to 88 kgon Friday.

Btw, yesterday I bought a pair of Peak Performance pants in size Medium. Can you believe that? I sure can't.

Three dull ones (92, 93, 94) (23.-24.3.2010)

Slowly but steadily I keep losing the extra weight I gained last weekend.

On Tuesday I spent 45 minutes at the gym, 30 minutes on the xtrainer, 10 minutes on the treadmill and 4 sets of inclined bench presses.

On Wednesday morning I did 30 minutes on the bike and 15 minutes on the xtrainer.

On Wednesday night I started with 35 minutes on the AMT and followed with 15 on the bike.

This mornign I weighed 90,2 kg. So close.

Last time on skis? (91) (22.3.2010)

Yesterday I came home after spending 4 days at the cottage. Even though we spent two days skiing, I still managed to gain a lot of weight during that time. To keep my sanity, I tried to shed some of that weight before Tuesday morning by going skiing. I did the usual 10,5 km in central park with a pretty easy pace and burned off 1100 kcal. My weight this morning was 91,5 kg, so 2,2 kg more than on Friday morning. I have a really tough 3 days ahead of me if I want to get even close to my last week's official weight of 89,3 kg.

90 (90) (17.3.2010)


Do I try or shouldn't I? After yesterday's 30 minute run, abs, inclined bench presses and biceps I weighed 90,5 kg this morning. I haven't really eaten anything, so by doing a good aerobic workout tonight it might be possible to reach 89,X kg tomorrow. What to do?

Where is my motivation? (89) (16.3.2010)


I haven't found my motivation to keep on going with my weight loss project. I'm not quite sure why this happened. It's either the fact that I wasn't able to break 90 last Friday, my weight gain over the weekend, the understanding of what's still left or maybe just general exhaustion. I'll try to do something tomorrow and on Thursday in order to get somewhere close to 90 on this Friday and then just relax at the cottage on the weekend. I'm taking two days of work and try to gather up energy for the spring rush at work and for the remaining workout project.

I've lost a lot of muscle strenght during the last few months. I would like to work on it more and more, but I know I can't do it before I've reached a weight and waist I'm happy with. I can only concetrate fully on one aspect of working out.

Today I spent an hour on xtrainer, burning 900 kcal. I'm hoping to weigh less than 91 tomorrow morning.
