Week 1 weigh in.

With my 1st week over it was time to weigh in again and see just what had happened to my body. 

The main changes I made this week were to my nutrition and diet.  I stopped eating all the junk and processed foods, cut sugar from my drinks and didn't eat carbohydrates after 5pm.

I started an exercise routine, but having had 6 months off I need to easy back into it gradually.  So week 1 consisted of 4 runs and 1 weights session.  The runs were: 2x 40mins steady pace, 1x 30min steady pace and 1x 5km parkrun.  The weight session was a 30min circuit of: Squats, bench press, seated row, lateral lunges, sit-ups, bridges and plank - 40 sec exercise with 20 sec rest.

So here are the results for week 1.


My weight has dropped from 93.6kg to 91.5kg, a loss of 2.1kg (4.6lbs).  My body fat percentage has dropped from 27.9% to 24.8%, a loss of 3.1%.  I am very pleased with this as week 1 is just about making the dietary changes and adding moderate intensity exercise.


In just 1 week I have moved from being classed Obese into the Overfat group and well on my way to being back in the Healthy group again.
