July Results... + photos!

Haai,

It's with some trepidation I did my weight & measurements this morning - I knew that my weight loss would be OK, but I cheated about a week ago and measured myself only a week ago, and did not have significant decreases. My only saving grace I thought, was that I measured myself in the evening, and when I do my monthly results, it's always based on a morning reading. Luckily I was right!!

So how did I do? Good! Great! Grand!

I'm very happy with my July results. I think i'm becoming more in tune with my body, as I did get the plateau I expected - luckily in only lasted a week! My goal was to lose 4.7 kilos this month - did I do it? YES!! Exactly! I found it hard to believe that I would hit the exact mark, and I even weighed myself twice to be sure! So here are my results to date:

Weight
Original - 150kg / June - 118.2kg / Now - 113.5kg! = a loss of 36.5kgs!

Waist
Original - 157cm / June - 121cm / Now - 117cm = a loss of 40cm!

Chest
Original - 136cm / June - 119cm / Now - 111cm = a loss of 25cm

Leg
Original - 81cm / June - 69cm / Now - 67cm = a loss of 14cm

Bodyfat
Original - 45.5% / June - 35.1% / Now - 33.5% = a drop of 12%

Muscle mass
Original - 20.1% / June - 25.1% / Now - 27.2% = an increase of 7.1%

So i'm pretty happy with the above results!

I bumped into a friend yesterday who told me that he reads the blog - but wanted to see some pics - so this morning in the gym I took some pics - and here they are;







So there we go. That's me. Though there will be less of me soon!

What's on for the future? Well tomorrow i'm doing a trial run of the City to Surf with Neil & Laura from work. Then the sunday after, the actual City to Surf!

And my goals for the month? I'm going to try for a 5 kilo loss - that will have me at the end of August, and just in time for my Japan trip, to 108.5!!! OMG! That seems so low to me, but it's only a month away!

Thanks for reading, and i'd love any comments too!
