Week Three Weigh In

I plateaued last week as I had a big weekend away and did not make 100% good choices - although they were much better than in my past life. This week I lost 700g weighing in at 72.2kg and I am happy that I am once again losing and that hopefully the plateau is over. I am struggling a bit the last few weeks with way too much on my plate and some very big and stressful decisions to make. But life goes on and I will continue to keep my eating and exercise at the top of my priorities. I hope everyone else is doing good :)

Week One weigh in

Just a quick post today as very busy chicken here. Weigh in at 72.9kgs today (loss of 0.4kg since first weigh in of the round). I adjusted my ticker so it reflects the start of the round and not pre-season (I did lose about 3kgs in pre season - yay). Week one and I already have red flags as I am going to Canberra tonight, back tomorrow and then to Husskisson for Triathlon all weekend - always a problem as many athletes use a race as an excuse to eat many treats after..... I will be strong!

Pre-season week 4

Weigh in at 73.5kg this week - a 1kg loss. I am very unmotivated with exercise this week and I need to pick it up. I know I will next week, but what about this one? A bit flat and not really happy at the moment. I get nice moments of happiness, but overall I am frustrated and am finding it very difficult to find the time and motivation to do the things that matter to me. In this case I am talking about my PhD. I just want to get the damn thing finished so I have more choices.

OK, whinge over. I have the pre-season task for "Organise and Diarise" playing while I write this blog and Mish is giving me a good talking to. I am going to listen and apply all the 12wbt pointers into my PhD as well. I am going to be so planned that I can only be inspired to do the two things that will help me get to happiness - 12wbt (and my triathlon) and my PhD.

I do have some awesome goals for exercise this year and am excited to get into them. I have the Husskisson sprint triathlon next weekend (750m:20:5kms) and Club Champs triathlon in week 11 (1:30:8kms). I do the mother's day classic run every year, but have been doing the 4km run at the Domain in Sydney, this year I am going to do the 8km run. I also do the city2surf each year and this year I want to run the whole thing (including heartbreak hill) - I also fundraise for Endometriosis Research for the city2surf if anyone wants to join me. So I have a few big goals, i just need a couple more to put in for this round in weeks 4 and 8 (or close to).

I am looking forward to next week and the start of this round. Tomorrow will be good too when the first week of recipes and exercises are out. I hope there are some good new ones as I am hanging for some new stuff.

Pre-season week 3

No weight change this week and very very busy! Work full on, training hard, sleeping not so good, relationship stuff to work thru, decisions to make, priorities to determine, PhDs to apply 12wbt principles to....... the list goes on. I am a little overwhelmed at the moment. But working through it and I have some amazing around me both at work and with friends and family. I am keeping the positives and working hard on removing or managing the negatives.
Hope you are all doing well.
Hugs for this week - Jas xoxo
