Last Week = 107.9kg
This Week = 108.1kg

Sunday wasn't a good day, drunk a bottle of wine during the footy and ate a whole seafood large pizza.. regret now but was so good at the time.

Target for Sunday weigh in: 107.5kg.

Have you had a go on a rowing machine? I lost 20 kilo in three months getting on the rower twice a day for an hour each time. It's pretty hard work but the weight drops off. I still have a bottle of red every night with dinner and eat what I want on weekends but I have also cut out most sugar and that makes a massive difference too.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

The problem with a rowing machine is the amount of room they take up. No doubt it’s a great workout and would strip weight off though.

Looking into a rowing machine, hopefully purchase one when I get my tax return back.. for now will just continue my walking/cycling/slow jogging.

Doing a June/July walk challenge on Strava - Complete a 60min walk, hike or wheelchair activity twice a week for 8 weeks.. 5 weeks complete.

Emotional this morning, gone backwards badly.. ordinary weekend kids birthday had cake and American burgers for dinner, and a dozen wild turkey RTD’s.

Just was very loose over the weekend.. also junior footy back so it’s so easy to grab a bacon & egg sandwich for breakfast, hotdog or similar for lunch. :(

FFS I went backwards. Beer & Pizza night Friday contributing. It's a setback. I could have accepted staying the same, but putting 1 kg back on sucks.

On the bright side I have lost 4 to 4.5kg's but that's only half way.

Half back on track, still ruing that bad week last week though... footy back now too it's so easy to grab something from the barbie and sink a few cold ones during the day - especially on Sunday's after junior footy coz that's really my only down time to wind down and do what I want.
