    GYM: Saturday, Sunday and Monday - Full Circuits

    Weight:

    Not lost too much since last time but encouraging:

    16-0 with body fat % down to 26.4% (started at 30.5%)

    I was 17 stone in February, now 16. Feeling great. More confidence. Clothes fitting looser than before. Able to wear shirts that were too tight before. Beginning to see more definition on upper body (arms and shoulders) and also my chest flab appears to be reducing.

    First 4 weeks in Gym are over. Have 2 weeks left before next assessment.

    Looking at my initial target of 2-3 stone in 3 months, I would be delighted if I lost 1 stone over the next 2 months. That seems a very reasonable and achievable target.

    So fingers crossed.

    hey just as a matter of interest are the smoothies that you have home made or do you get them in a shop. The reason I ask is that smoothies aren't as healthy as people think they are and can contain a lot of sugar so if your main goal is weightloss I would advise maybe only getting them as a treat rather then as something you would have regularly.
