Tiredness can kill!

[SilverSpeed]

Well today didn't start too well imo I ended up having my cereal in the morning and when I got to my active job I had 2 chocolate digestive biscuits but gave the rest of the packet away!

Lucky I did go for a walk last night and will be tonight even tho I feel worn out at the moment!

I am really hoping my weighing on Sunday will give me some good results (110kg last weigh in) but on a good note I am starting to feel better and on a lighter note my backside doesn't show when I am on my bike to work anymore 😂 I guess I have too think of the positives.

The only snacks I am trying to eat are apples/fruit which seem too feel me up if I do have cravings.

My lunch today was Nutella sandwiches and 2 satsumas bad you many think but I am finishing off the pot over a long period of time.

Dinner was 4 sausages and 3 medium size potatoes cooked in the oven with some carrots. (I think I need the carbs)

Otherwise I haven't started calorie counting as of yet because of the effort so I will try after seeing the results at the end of the month!

On a side note I am happy and alcohol free for well over a month.

Wish me luck tomorrow as I have 30 mile round trip cycle todo!

Well support and comments have a great evening everyone!

Loads of positives SilverSpeed, wishing you all the best for Sunday.

I know what you mean about cal counting being an effort but then again a 30 mile cycle trip sounds like a fair bit of effort as well

Here's only a rough guess but I'd say your sausages and potatoes probably came in at around 600-900 cals. Nothing wrong with that, when it fits in with the rest of your day.

Kudos to the not drinking.

[SilverSpeed in reply to Tiggerr]

Thanks mate for the support and very much welcomed perspective! I think too be safe it probably was 1k cals and lunch and breakfast make it 2k so I am in the range I need too be too loose weight

[Tiggerr in reply to SilverSpeed]

Methinks there's a teeny weeny bit of cal knowledge going on there somewhere

Nice one... and with 30 mile bike rides thrown in for good measure, you're definitely going to do well.

[SilverSpeed in reply to Tiggerr]

well i used to by in the forces and do a lot of sports and have been 73kg before and would like to get back too that with in a reasonable time frame

[Ceals]

Sounds to me like it is all going very well. Don't skimp too much on the calories (that you aren't counting) because you will get better results over a longer period with something to can stick to.

Be very proud of giving your biscuits away - well done you!

[SilverSpeed in reply to Ceals]

thank you so much for the support i fully understand this is more of a life changing habit that is needed rather that hardcore hit the gym for 2 weeks and its ok sort of thing. i guess the small changes can add up too big things. fingers crossed i can stick with it. i ll just have to use my army discipline to stick with it.

[Ceals in reply to SilverSpeed]

You can so stick with it SilverSpeed you have already proved that and you are already noticing the differences - brilliant! Roll on the weigh-in!

[SilverSpeed in reply to Ceals]

i just had imagine of myself at a weigh-in at a boxing match lol evidently i am fighting my fat of course. yes bring it on

[Ceals in reply to SilverSpeed]

Great image - stick with it!

Two biscuits is no biggie and you gave the packet away which is great!

Love it that your arse cleavage is no longer on show 😂

Sounds like you are doing a lot of activity so I need to get my finger out to keep up! Xxx

[SilverSpeed in reply to Crazyvanilla]

Yea I know right I am keeping too a tight diet of food/cals so I am really hope it pays off in the long run. I do find myself hungry some times but I think that's the mess I take that do that. P.S I hope you enjoyed your curry xxx

[SilverSpeed]

Holy smokes that was informative and very helpful concerned... I did not know that. I guess I won't have too load up on carbs after all. Thank you for that comment. Plus I agree the low insulin level is what's making me tired 😴 thank you.

[SilverSpeed]

O right I am not very clued up on the whole insulin levels and glucose really. I just know I need to do exercise to burn fat that's about it really
