Lose The Fat 1

Hi,

Here’s the picture of the belly I’ve been promising.

Sorry, it’s not a great photo but you get the idea. It was taken on a phone camera and it was my intention for the pic not to give away my identity. I want to blog about my fitness anonymously. That might change somewhere down the line but for now I’m more comfortable doing it this way.

I’ll take a pic like this each week for comparison. Right now I just want to lose the fat while maintaining muscle. I’m not actively seeking to gain muscle even though I know the benefits of doing so. I guess everyone feels the need to do it their own way?

The title of the post reflects my attitude towards this. I feel I work better at achieving my goals when I give myself instructions. Like the fat loss mantra I’ve been using, it works its way into my unconcious.

That said, I also recognise that I could use postitive language. I’ll get to that later.

So there it is – 201lbs. About 31lbs (best guess) overweight. Love handles and belly are not attractive but a flat stomach is. That’s where I’m going.

Be Healthy

I Drank Beer And Ate Sugar Dense Foods

Hi, I weighed myself yesterday (Tuesday) and tipped the scale at 198.8lbs. That’s a loss from Monday’s weight of 200.6 but it’s more likely to be fluid loss than fat loss. As if to prove the point I weighed myself again this morning and registered 201.8 My diet is still fairly appalling – more in [...]

Returning To Lose The Fat After A Cold

Hi, When I started Fit Dad I intended to post very regularly about my fitness activities and my attempt to lose the fat. I got off to a decent start but my progress was stalled when the endless round of winter colds took their toll on my family. I’ve still got a cold but it [...]
