Lose The Fat 3

by Fit Dad on May 17, 2009

Hi, Fit Dad here,

In my last update I mentioned that I’d made a return to fitness training. I put in two twenty minute cross country runs and a day off. Yesterday (Saturday) I put in another twenty minute cross country run and feel pleased that I’m building a new exercise habit. OK so I have a little way to go before I can call it a habit but I’m keen to celebrate my early success – it makes me feel more like sticking with it.

I weighed myself yesterday and I’m 202lbs. It’s no surprise really, I haven’t been too conscious of my eating lately. I’m much more interested in the exercise right now. The dietary aspect will come shortly, once I feel I’m hooked into the exercise.

I measured myself today:

Chest: 42
Belly: 40.5
Waist: 38.5
Hips: 40.25
Right Upper Arm: 13.25
Right U A Flexed: 14.25
Left Upper Arm: 13.25
Left U A Flexed: 14.25
Right Thigh: 23
Left Thigh: 23

The summer is coming, I’m free of cold, free of injury and I want to lose the fat around my stomach by the middle of August.

I’ll be supplementing the running with other exercises and mini challenges but I’ll go into that in more detail in the coming weeks.

Be healthy!

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 [...]

Starting Weight 201lbs. Now LOSE THE FAT!

Hi, Yesterday (Friday) I weighed in at 200.8lbs and today the scales tell me I’m 200.6lbs. Over the six days I’ve been weighing, the average weight is 200.8lbs so I’m going to round it up to 201lbs. 201lbs is my starting weight, so I estimate I have to lose the fat to the tune of [...]

A Great Fitness Site From Zuzana

Hi, The weight today: 202.2 The highest figure so far this week! My cold really does seem to be going. I feel a whole lot better but not quite as good as I need to feel to lose the fat through exercise. I’ve started to get some brisk walks in during the day, 20 minutes [...]

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 [...]
