Christmas Chub Club! 2021

200g loss so back on the down.

Still going to tweak calories down to 2000 a day and see if that brings it down faster.
Currently at 2100 with 2300 being my ‘weight wise stand still’ requirement.

Good work.
Are you doing any riding or other exercise at all? I’ve been doing a 3-4 mile walk each day which takes around 50-60 mins and according to Garmin burns around 500kcal which I think has helped with the fat loss and gives me a bit more to play with on calorie target.
My daily target in MFP is 1820 and with walking, gym and riding I’m always well under that and although I’ve cut back on the crap I used to eat, I’m still having a treat after dinner or whatever it’s not been a chore, just made me realise that most of the time I’m eating out of habit.

Been an absolute cakefest Chez Morecash this week, and 1kg back on. Bugger.

Put on half a kg a couple of weeks ago and have been level since. That said I had a minor lurgie and then a week on holiday, so hopefully getting back to doing more exercise will help start shifting the lard again.

@muggomagic Cheers, training/riding is a bit sporadic as I tend to go for a ride when I feel like it rather than on set times. Typically a couple of hours once a weekend out on the mtb and 2 to 3 visits to the gym first thing during the week.

Gym is only two weeks in and not been inside one for 15 years until now, so everything hurts again.
Do love the feeling though and will continue it.

83.1, slow but steady progress. Hopefully next week will be a good one and get solidly into the low 82’s.

120.2, another 200g.

There’s slow, there’s steady – and there’s me 😀

I’ve had a pretty good week this week. Been out on my bike pretty much everyday, still sticking to the diet and still off the booze. All of which has resulted in a loss of 1.9kg. Which has taken me to a personal milestone of 12.8kg lost or 2 stone in freedom units.

Several weeks of poor results, and finally a loss this week.

I’m well off track but slowly losing. Better than nowt!

82.5kg this week, just missing being in the low 82’s but good enough. Definitely getting the trend going in the right direction and avoiding some bad habits like picking up a choccy bar at the petrol station so making good progress.

120 dead today, so a further 200g.

115.5 now. Happy with that.

A slight increase to 82.7kg, all down to two nights out this week meeting friends that both involved pub meals. Not a complaint, just an observation as I was down to 82.0 on Tuesday!

Just 0.2kg loss this week. Not surprising really as it was my birthday Tuesday and I’ve been stuffing my face pretty much all week. Did a chunk of riding over the weekend and earlier in the week which helped avoid it being an increase.

I recommend Covid for weight loss – 1.6kg loss for me this week – that’s 1.1kg lower than my average trend would suggest so it’ll be interesting to see whether that comes back in line with trend, or it sticks.

Shocking few weeks mental health wise, back up to 83.5kg.

GP appointment in two weeks.

I recommend Covid for weight loss

Yeah I’ll pass thanks 🙂

@MoreCashThanDash all the best, hope you feel better soon.

I’ve not been filling in the spreadsheet but I started at 98kg in late September and I decided to cut down on a lot of my carb intake.
This combined with rowing 5 X 5km each week has seen my weight drop to just over 90kg.
I’ll be keeping this up to see if I can get into the mid 80’s

I’ve ‘cheated’ this morning and adjusted my target weight up slightly. Not sure why I’d put 85kg in initially – probably just because it’s a nice round number. It’s now 86.1. I’ve always been aiming for 13 1/2 stone in old money ever since I started tracking my weight last year when I was over 18 stone, I’m now there – or at least at 13 stone 7lb .8 according to my scales this morning so I’m going to do my best to stick to that.

My Mrs says that I’ll start to look scrawny if I lose any more. Scrawny! Not an adjective I ever expected….. So I updated my details on my Nutracheck app this morning to maintain rather than lose weight and boosh, I’m suddenly back to an allowance 2,500 calories a day. The luxury! I was down to 1,850 or so a day for the last month or so. Kebab anyone??

So that’s me retiring from the chub club, might sign up again in the New Year if the Xmas chub has landed.

It’s now 86.1

And tomorrow it will be 86.8 !!

(well done anyway)

Not posted for awhile. But not going down. Going up a little every week as a slight injury has stopped me doing anything other the walking the dogs.

Hovering around 13st 10lbs at the moment (from 15st). That can go up by 2/3lbs on any given day though.

I’ve stopped concentrating on the weight aspect though as muscle mass is building. Got a bit of belly fat to get rid of, but not really doing any cardio and still drinking, so could probably rid that easy enough. Can’t do much more on the ‘what I eat’ side of things

Finally lost a bit – first week without holiday/big night out for ages. Hopefully similar for next couple of weeks before the wheels come off as Christmas starts to kick in

120.2 yesterday.

Up a big jump to 83.4kgs thanks to a Christmas meal last night and a few snacks throughout the week. Put on nearly half a kilo just from last night so not too disheartened but will have to be very careful this weekend to try and at least lose this week’s gain rather than my usual small gain that I then lose at the beginning of every week.

This week has gone well. 121.6 KG so back to the start for me!
Christmas snacking has done for me – need more resilience.

Kind of lost motivation this last spell but weight is level ish and maybe my head will be back in the game in the new year.

More exercise less eating …
