I made a new year's resolution to get healthier and fitter ... which involves a goal to lose some weight (get to 80kg by my birthday in July)......Now when I told Damian about this ... he said that there is "no way it was going to happen" ... and we made a bet about it .... also involving him losing more weight than me.
When Damian left, we had a weigh-in (at the airport, of course) .... and at the time I weighed 200 pounds (91.2 kg) and he weighed 202 pounds (92.1kg)....I was little surprised to see that my weight had creeped up into thew 90's.... but understandable, given the pizza eating and drinking that occured during Damian's 2 week visit ...so on the way home, I stopped by and purchased a scale (unfortunately it measures in pounds).
Since that day, I have religously measured my weight in the morning (when I first get up, after taking a morning piss), and at night, just before I go to sleep.... I have recorded the measurements, and figure that an average of them is a good indication of my progress.
I have also recorded these measurements in a spreadsheet, and created a graph, which is a easy graphical representation of my progress (I figure if i do that over months ... it will be very interesting to see)
First few weeks, the weight loss was very consistent (healthy eating, exercise, no alcohol) ... but last week was all over the place (thanks to Máté's visit, which involved the usual behaviours associated with having a guest Aussie over ... ie. drinking) .
I decided that Febuary is going to be a dry month .. and the first drink Im going to have is in Brisbane ... when I catch up with Damian again.
