So the weekly measure up is here!
Bicep:  17"
Forearm: 12.6"
Thigh: 25.8"
Stomach (handles): 39.5"
Chest: 47"
Waist: 38.4"
Neck:  16.5"
weight: 97.8kg (215lbs)

Although I lost another kg (2 pounds) my measurements hardly budged! Im happy to be lighter but not so pleased with the measurements. Doesnt matter, I could have lost the weight in other places, and I certainly look leaner than a few weeks ago.  Just gotta keep on truckin'!

Back at training!

Back at training!

I managed a pretty full-on week of martial arts, cardio and weightlifting this week so I'm looking forward to the results.  I look a lot leaner in the mirror so I should have some good measurements:

Bicep:  16.9"
Forearm: 12.75"
Thigh: 26"
Stomach (handles): 39.5"
Chest: 47"
Waist: 38.6"
Neck:  16.3"
weight: 98.6kg (217lbs)

So I lost a kg (2 pounds), a little bit of muscle loss (0.1 of an inch on my biceps) but little over half an inch on both my stomach and waist.  That's a pretty good ratio and Im pretty happy with that.  Even though I'm pleased with the results we had a few big events this week which prevented me losing and probably I even gained a little back, so next week should be a good week since there are not so many events that revolve around eating..

less effort = no results

Although I planned to start training again this week, I hurt my hand and was very limited.  I still managed to a get a bit in though.  Here are my results:

Bicep:  17.0"
Forearm: 12.75"
Thigh: 26"
Stomach (handles): 40"
Chest: 47"
Waist: 39.1"
Neck:  16.5"
weight: 99.6kg (219lbs)


Nothing changed according to above. Although I weighed in at 98kg during the week, I unfortunately had a bit of a binge last night at a friends engagement party. Just a stupid mistake and a bump in the road, I'll smash it out this week and get good results next week. I'll be back at training, back to weightlifting, and CONSTANT strict eating. No excuses.

Lost a bit of weight overall this week:

Bicep:  17.15"
Forearm: 12.5"
Thigh: 26.25"
Stomach (handles): 40.7"
Chest: 47"
Waist: 39.5"
Neck:  16.5"
weight: 101.2kg (222lbs)

Happy to see my stomach (love handles) decrease from what started at 42.5 to 40.7, only 3 weeks ago, aswell as my waist, from 40.5 down to 39.5.  Everything seems to be working at a stable healthy pace.  Just gotta keep it up, but if it keeps going like this I think I'll be fine :)

Lost 5kg!

Had a massive drop in weight being the first week, I'm guesing mostly fluid however, and the shock a change in lifestyle from doing next to nothing most days to going to work again, walking and training more frequently, and eating healthier:

Bicep - from 17.25"
Forearm - from 12.8"
Thigh - from 26"
Stomach (handles): 41.75"
Chest: 47"
Waist -40.25"
Neck - 16.25"
weight 102.3kg (225lbs)

So I've lost a tiny bit of muscle on the arms, bound to happen on the first week, but lost a little around the belly button and waist, which is where its mostly stored.  Lost 5kg in total! but like I said, would be mostly fluids.  Good start to the whole plan!

About to start....

Ok so these arent really new results, but they are my current measurements, since tomorrow is the beginning of my weightloss routine.  Increased walking, cardio and training in general with decreased carbs and healthier food, with the addition of green tea, chia seeds, and a few supplements - Here are my current measurements, hopefully this time next week they will be looking a little better:

Bicep - from 17.5"
Forearm - from 12.8"
Thigh - from 26"
Stomach (handles): 42.5"
Chest: 47"
Waist -40.5"
Neck - 16.5"
weight 107.4kg (236lbs)

So I have't really gained any muscle in the last week, and went a little overboard in a 'last hoorah' type fashion - not good.  I've put a bit on in the belly and am thinking maybe I relaxed a little too much and am not a big fan of myself for it, but hey it happens.  Next week I should be looking a littl healthier since the first week usually starts off the best especially since training usually drops fluid levels and they initial shock of the transition... . I've never had this much muscle mass, quite awesome, havent had this kind of fat level for at least 6/7 years, which is just appaling, since I'm considered to be somewhat of a fitness 'machine' among those who know me, but time will change it all back around.  We'll see how it goes, and check back in next weekend
