This week I weigh 13st and 6lbs, I want to lose another 6lbs before this time next week.
Posting
these weekly updates has really helped me stay on track with the
changes I am making. Talking about them and having to make a post about
it each week keeps it fresh in my mind and makes me less likely to cave
to temptation. Speaking of temptation Tim Ferris’ Blog has a very
interesting article this week on Ego Depletion.
The rest of this week's post is inspired by this post from Ant, where he gives an update on how he is doing.
I started this blog on Monday the 2nd of April and at that point I weighed 15 Stone. Since then I have made 40 Posts.
I have gone from wearing 42” waist Trousers to 36” Waist. Medium T-Shirts now fit me.
According to my massively unreliable Scales my BMI has dropped 5 points.
I have a Plan of what I want to do, even if I am still fighting with exactly how I am going to do it.
I am working towards my Dreamlines and I have a Bucket List.
I am reading The 13th Age Escalation Edition (I pre ordered and they send you a pdf of the current rules) which has a lot of very interesting ideas to add story elements to the typically more fighty D20 games. I am also reading The Education of Millionaires and some comics and graphic novels I got while at the Travelling Man 21st party up in leeds at the weekend.
This weekend I am going to Eclectic Games for the launch of the Dr Who Card Game, and then on Sunday there will be some more Fighting Practice.
All in all everything is going well. What has been cool about your week?
Massive amounts of painting stuff for a charity auction. Working out we can do 5 Return to Ravnica Pre-releases without any of the staff keeling over from exhaustion.
ReplyDeleteThe real thing I have found about losing weight or in fact setting any kind of goal and achieving it in manageable chunks has been to regain willpower and energy. I do more, I feel more energised and awake, I blog about it so I remember it and with luck it will help others who are trying to climb out of the doldrums also.
ReplyDeleteSo, for me everything is going really well. If you don’t feel everything is good for you then let’s start by changing that with small goals: what HAS been cool about your week?
Remember: ’A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step”.
Ego Depletion blog post also makes sense. Habits are wonderful, provided you can make sure they are good ones when you set them up.
