Weigh-in Wk 8 & 9
Didn't get to blog about our weight-loss challenge last week, mainly because few made it to the weigh-in on Monday. But pretty much everyone was there this morning, and I'm still losing. That's despite a hectic travel schedule, ruining any chance of getting to my regular fitness training sessions, and the Easter week-end.
So last week I lost 1.3 kgs and this week 0.8. All up, I'm down 6.3kgs from my start at 108.6 to a current 102.3. Still not as fast as I'd like, but a nice downward trend. Expect to see that curve steepen (probably not quickly enough to win the comp) after the Canberra Heroes Launch event.
As a group we've lost a total of 46.6kgs, almost a whole person. Viewing that as tubs of butter is a visceral reminder of why we're doing this :)
Also, with most people's plateau over the Easter week-end, I've moved from 5th, last week 4th, to 3rd position. I'm just 4.7kgs behind the leader. Which, although difficult for sure, is not unattainable. I'm only 3.1kgs away from the money....
Still anyone's game. Need to work on my final 3 wk strategy: Dysentry, amputation, any other ideas???
