Long Over Due Weight Loss Update

I havent posted about this in a while so I thought Id give you an update on where I am with my weight loss.  Its going well, although a couple of weeks ago I put on a smidge of weight and my body fat went down, however last week, I lost weight and my body fat went back up a little.  No biggy except for the fact that I wasnt eating all my food groups.  Im supposed to eat 6 carbs, 4 proteins, 5 dairy, 5 veg, 3 fruit and 2 fats per day, and on close inspection of my food diary last week, Karen noticed I wasnt eating my quota of carbs, naughty me.

I do try but sometimes I just forget to eat afternoon tea as Im busy at that time of the day or I want to save my carbs for the evening meal and then I dont eat all my carbs anyway.  Anyhoo, today I had my weekly weigh in and I lost weight again, back to 64.1kg and body fat is back down.  I had my monthly measure as well and my measurements have crept up a little bit.  Yes, you read right, my measurements have gone UP not down, ah well, shit happens.

There is a good reason for this, its because I havent done Pump for about a month and Im losing muscle mass and my metabolism is getting slower and Im not burning as much fat as Im supposed to be.  I must confess to a bit of laziness on my part, I got a bit bored of Pump and I have been not staying for both classes on Saturday so thats why.  I have every intention of getting back into Pump this week and getting back into exercise again.  I dont want to fall off the wagon, especially as Christmas is coming up and I wont be able to get to the gym as much because they have limited hours during the silly season.

So this Saturday I will be throwing myself back into Pump with a vengance.  I want those measurements to go back down again.  When I say they crept up I mean by like half a centermetre on my waist , and another part of my body (cant remember where), Its only natural for stuff like this to happen, we are only human.  My eating has been better, although I confess to a protein blow out of mammoth proportions on Saturday as we went out for lunch to a seafood restaurant and had this huge-ass seafood platter, plus I had dessert as well, which made me feel sick, but it was delicious, and it was our anniversary so I had to have something special.

Im not upset about this little setback.  Our weight fluctuates, and I look at the bigger picture of how much Ive lost as a whole and its a massive achievement for me, I never thought Id be in the 60's again.  It does annoy me a little that I just cant lose these last 4 kilos, I think its gonna be tough to lose this last little bit of weight, but I will persevere, I will lose it!
