Weigh Day 7: What a week...

Firstly, let me apologise for not posting. This week has been extremely hectic at work. Not only haven't I posted anything on the blog, but I also did no get the time to go to the gym or play football. I am hoping everything goes back to the normal routine this week.

Well, back to the weigh day. This week, I have seen no change in weight, which I feel is good, especially due to the lack of exercise and bad eating habits I have had. I also am starting to notice that I get fuller quicker nowadays, which is a good sign I suppose.

Katrina and I have also come up with our first weekly plan. I will create a separate post for this to avoid getting the TLDR treatment from Adam.

Carbs? Fats? Salt? What and how much is good for me?

I always find myself asking this. I also find a great number of friends asking me this, now that I am on this "Health Trip" as they call it. So, I had a rough idea, but didn't know the exact details. I decided to go on the hunt and found the best site out there to help you with exactly this. Where better to go than to the UK Food Standards Agency Eatwell site?

Now, before you run over to their website and get all the information you can possibly need, be warned, their site is massive and has a huge deal of information, helpful information. You could find yourselves reading for hours. So, what I am trying to do is summaries some of the things, that I think are important to know, whether you are trying to lose weight or not.

Weigh Day 6: A busy week over

So finally this week is over. It has been really busy, and hence the posts have been bare and lacking.

But as promised, I am working on a new, most probably too long post. Initially this was to just explain calories, but I decided to rather focus on food labels and what those numbers mean etc, but more to that in that actual post.

Well, with no further ado, I would like to announce that I have finally lost another kilogram. I haven't been particularly good this weekend, but have been doing my sport. Either way, I am chuffed!

Anyway, I will keep this post short, as the next one (out in about 30 mins) will be quite long!

I pigged out a little today. We went down to the pub to watch the Germany match and hence the diet was forgotten. Even with that, I only had 1 calorie over my weight maintenance level in consumption, but I did burn about 800 calories in the gym.
