Re:Welshy Goes Hardcore ! - 30 May 2009 09:38

So 4 weeks in and how are we doing ?

Starting Stats
Weight - 8st 9lbs
Bust - 33"
Waist - 26"
Hips - 34"

Stats Today
Weight - 8st 3lbs
Bust - 32"
Waist - 24"
Hips - 32.5"

Pretty fcking awesome I would say !

Haven't cheated on my diet at all, having one cheat meal a week seems to be sorting that out - I've been refusing chocolates and biscuits at work.

Training hasn't been as consistent as it should be - I've changed the morning cardio to 4 times a week one morning after the other so it's become more of a habit and as from next week will be adding an extra cardio session in the evening. I've dropped the cardio after weights as it was eating into my evenings too much and I wasn't preparing my food for the next day

Overall I'm really pleased

Re:Welshy Goes Hardcore ! - 30 May 2009 13:13

Yep yep ! .. Added 10K onto my squats, 15K onto leg press, bench ( flat & incline ) are both up by a couple of K

I'm not finding eating the foods I'm eating hard at all, it's more the preparation and thinking about things as opposed to just eating stuff.

I'll be getting James to do my prep next year so I don't have to think about it

It's encouraging to see that I can stick to it though and I am making progress

*is happy*

Got bored so took some progress pics.

Can't see a massive difference, certainly can't see where the 1/2 stone has gone and where the inch loss has come off but I didn't check the before poses properly so not the best comparison.

Will have to study the before pics very carefully before taking my end ones to make sure they match ... and dip myself in gravy browning !
