I lost weight
Written on September 25, 2008 – 10:10 pm | by Adam
Another week has gone past and I know I have been a little slack in regards to my posts, however being Thursday and weigh in night, I have some really excellent news!
I have lost 1.9kg in the past week, that is a total weight loss of 7.1kg!
That is an amazing result, last week I managed a loss of .5kg, so I am really pleased with this weeks result.
I knew what had to be done, I remained focussed and kept my eyes on the food I was eating and the amount of water I was drinking. 2 litres every day!
OK I also started some excercise too, I have now started walking on a regular basis, which has obviously helped, now the goal for this week is to maintain what I have been doing. Did you know that you can make excercise a habit?
I did some research into the meaning of a habit.
I found that it can take roughly 30 to 40 repetitions for the average person to form a habit. Think about this, what sort of excercise could you do 30 or 40 times to make it a habit?
What sort of excercise do you like to do? Is it walking, which is a good low impact workout or do you prefer some resistance type training like swimming?
Could you do them enough (like 30 or 40) times so it becomes a habit?
After a while when you find yourself enjoying it more will it still feel like a habit, or will it feel like something worth doing because you have suddenly become passionate about it?
Well I am in the early days of creating my new habit, so far it has been fun and whats more is the fact that I have seen rewards for my hard work. Having the best weeks weight loss yet since this journey began is awesome and really backs up the need to get moving!
Share with us what sort of excercise you enjoy.
