END OFF PHASE ONE - WEIGH-IN

                          

So I weighed in today and as I predicted I didn't shift as much as last week, as you know I was on a high fat burning diet last week which ment this week was going to less, BUT SAYING THAT I still drop a few pounds, 3.2lb for the week which may have been a result due weight to cardio ratio. 

That brings my for week total to 13.4lb .6 off my stone target, I think ill go with boooooooom! for that result, it can be done and yes I pushed myself but the focus of this project was to high light how I did it your time scale can be made to fit you.

I Hope that you have got the jist off phase one, which is allowing you body to adjust to the life style change, focussed more for people to make a start on loosing weight, it focussed on ways to help accept it takes time to do so and that your body needs to adjust to the changes.

Don't just rush into it, nothing happens over night and you will get there if you are willing to let it happen. If you are very large you will see dramatic results straight away the each week see slightly less results on the scales but more results in you abilities and shape. If you are medium to slightly large you will see steady results from the start but no dramatic results each week. BUT YOU SHOULD ALL FEEL PROUD THAT YOU WANT TO MAKE A CHANGE!

I have a saying "you should never knock any one that try's and fails but knock the ones that never try at all but always respect the ones that tried and failed and tried again till they got what they want".

If you cant see that slow progress is still progress it will be hard for you but you should know that some one you know will see you try and will be proud off you! that alone should be a good enough reason to keep going.

Remember the thermogenic foods out there that will help you burn calories whilst you eat and that just cutting out sugars will boost your results. Don't stop enjoying your food AND PLEASE DONT STARVE YOURSELF! just take the minuets to think about it because I promise you if you keep it up and reach your target and then spend a little time maintaining it your body will be trained to let you have the day off to eat what you want even eat all day if you like and your body will know what to do.

If you have been following this as I have write it or you have just started reading it now don't be put off by my ruttiness, I chose to use the low weights and running machines as I was already a gym user. You may not want to use a gym and just wanted to know about the food and nutrition side of things thats all good I hope it helped, or you want to find a activity to do instead of the gym. have a think about these as see if these might work for you.
