Week 2 weigh in

Here I am and once again it is time to weigh in and see what has happened this week.  This is the end of week 2 of my Lean Body challenge.  I can already notice quite a few changes like I feel more energetic during the day, I'm sleeping better and I don't feel so bloated after meals.

So I am expecting a good weight and fat loss this week, but expect the weight loss to slow down from next week as my weight training starts to build more lean muscle.  Muscle weighs more than fat, so as long as my body fat % keeps dropping I will be happy.  Also 1lb of lean muscle burns 50kcal a day, so by increasing my lean muscle I will burn more fat :)

So here is this week photo:


Now for the numbers... This week I weigh 89.9kg and have 21% body fat, which is a loss of 1.6kg (3.5lbs) and 3.8% body fat.  This brings my total loss for the 2 weeks to 3.7kg (8.1lbs) and 6.9% body fat, not a bad start hey!


My nutrition has stayed the same this week, but my exercise routine has increased.  I now do 2 weight sessions at BodyTech Gym and 4 runs at Southwick Country Park, 1 of which is the 5km Parkrun.

As always please leave any comments or questions below. Follow me on Twitter @fusionfitnessuk thank you.

  1. Andy - you could also use a sun tan as well - may not help with the weight, but it will make you feel better!
