1 week on

83.5kg

That’s what it reads on the weighing scale!

83.5kg

Could my eyes deceive me? Where have I gone wrong??!!!!!!!

Alright I fess up, sure I didn’t follow the exercise programme and calorie count but gaining 400g in a week is abit too much right? ……Right? …er……Right?

Ok, ok i get it, I have only myself to blame. Even if my pregnant wife makes me feel guilty for eating less than her I should have stood my guard. :-I

Well, lesson learned! With renewed vigor I’m more determine this week. Next date with the weighing scale I will prevail!!!

The regime and diet plan

Ok here we go. Head straight, mind focused and this is what i’m going to do.

Phase1: Conditioning; – Week 1-4, Calorie count: 2000

Phase2: Cardio only – Week 4-8, Calorie Count: 2200

Phase 3: Cardio (70%), Weights training (30%) – Week 8-16, Calorie Count: 2200

Phase 4: Weights training (70%), Cardio (30%) – Week 16- 24, Calorie Count:2400

Conditioning, since my last workout was back in.. hmm i don’t know say 5 years ago i reckon it would be a good idea to start with something modest. So for Week1 this is the plan:

Morning: 2 X 20 push-ups and 2 X 35 crunches

Evening: 3 X 20 push-ups and 3 X 35 crunches

Ooh i hope this works!

Losing Weight? Help!!

For as long as I can remember weight gain has never been my problem. Not until a wedding ring, a son and another offspirng due this June. Shirts are getting tighter, my jeans don’t fit. Chest are sagging; that’s rite, i’m having man boobs. And the mirror has become your enemy..

It’s time for action!! And it starts rite now!!!

Like many motivational books will tell you, to achieve something always have S.M.A.R.T goals (Specific,Measureable, Agreed upon, Realistic, Time Based)

Well here’s mine:

Specific: 1) To lose 10kg by 24 October 2008 (abt 5.5 months) 2) To reduce waist by 5.5 inches 3) To reduce chest by 3 inches.

Measureable: To weigh and measure myself monthly. Current stats = 83.1kg (Weight) 38.5″ (waist) and 40″ (chest)

Agreed upon: Embark on a fitness program that doesn’t impede on my family and career. Hmm.. that should be easy.

Realistic: 2kg a month and 500g a week seems realistic to me.

Timeline: Must achieved this by 24 October so i look good on my birthday on the 27th. LOL

Now all i need is a fitness and food intake plan. ***Gulp*** Help
