Quelle surprise...same as I was in week 4!

131.2kg!

I've only tinkered with my diet so far so that looks like something I'll have to address properly asap.

Walking around today, my knee feels OK, so all systems are go for run 8.2 tomorrow!

Congratulations on completing run 1 of week 8, so glad to know that your knee feels OK.

Onwards and upwards to run 2 of week 8. 🏃🏾

Your weight might not have changed but it's not all about the scales. Have you noticed any change in your body shape at all.

Hope you get out for your run tomorrow. Good luck 🤗🤗

My calves are larger & harder - I forgot to measure anything before I started!

And remember that all the new muscle that you are building weighs more than fat. I've had a few people commenting recently that I have lost weight but the scales tell a different story. But clothes are feeling looser and I've had to start going up a notch on my belt. The scales aren't the best indicator of how much good the running is doing for your body!

Shame you didn’t measure yourself, we just keep getting a better shape and loving being more muscular and toned

Well done on your run

I’ve lost 1.8 kg in 4 weeks, none of that in the last week. I’m eating better and using Myfitnesspal to record my intake. I did measure everything at the beginning though and will get measured again this weekend. Anyway I feel better, I sleep better my outlook has changed and I have more energy. The weight has to shift eventually it’s the laws of physics 👍
