52lbsin52wks

weight 210.2 Sigh. I knew it would be the case as I have ‘fallen off the wagon’ so to speak. But – my first day of retirement is upon me. I just want to sleep and not focus on anything. Today I am giving myself a little break – tomorrow I will take the day to plan meals etc and…

Trying to get my head back in the game but I realize this is what happens – I get busy on other things and this focus goes by the wayside. The win I have to take during this first month is the routine of checking in – don’t miss a day – and the fact that I have laid the…

I think that when I weigh myself on Wednesday I will be back to the beginning. It is hard to live life and keep focused on this goal, especially when my life is social and/or busy. Tomorrow is my last full day in the office – am hoping I have laid the groundwork to still meet 52lbs in 52 weeks…

Seven days of writing but not engaged enough in the process. Back to it tomorrow. I plan on re-reading a few things this afternoon and get back on the bandwagon. My official retirement is in a week – I am ready to really focus on working out and eating better – maybe this was a false start but a start…

In the middle of the retirement weekend and got at least a 4k hike in today – doesn’t quite offset the shenanigans of last night but at least done I will completely get back on course tomorrow. In the meantime this steak is alive

A reminder to myself that I need to control the behaviour and not focus on the outcome. My behaviour hasn’t been ideal for weight loss so today I will control my breakfast and lunch – dinner is out tonight but I can control not eating dessert etc. and I can control getting some exercise in today. My brain is telling…

Weight : 209.6 As expected, I am up in weight. Am I fooling myself by telling myself I don’t mind because I was on vacation? Perhaps but I did enjoy my time away and I definitely did not focus the way I should on what I ate and drank – lesson there is if I want continues progress, 2 weeks…

wow – 22 days into this already – I should be down 3 pounds (can only weigh tomorrow as out on the river today) I know that losing weight will help me on these adventures – carrying extra weight doesn’t make a canoe go faster that’s for sure and I don’t want to be on the stern because I weigh…

I am writing today to at least stay on track with this commitment even if it feels like right now I am just writing and not focused on weight loss or the process of weight loss today. I am about to get my first lesson in white water canoeing – I have a trip planned in late August where I…

I am back from vacation and heading out to my next one – two days of learning to white water canoe in advance of a canoeing trip late August. I will take these two days to get back on track – eat healthy at the camp (I think the food offering is pretty basic so I don’t think I will…
