73 down...
Posted: Jul 08, 2010 5:14 pm
Early last year, I said to myself, you'll become 40 this year, so it's now or never. Done with the excuses (too much work...) and time to step up.
I started swimming early last year and biking somewhere in july, adjusting my schedule to do at least 4-5 hours of sport every single week. On top of that, I started eating regular quantities.
A bit more than a year later, I've lost 73 pounds, that's almost one third of my weight last year
I wearing 3-4 sizes smaller clothes these days (tired a Medium sized shirt today that was way too large for me)
I'm quite sure it's the sporting bit that cuts the cake : not only are you burning calories, but you can't eat during sporting.
I also notice that fat food does not attract me anymore , certainly not after sporting.
This saturday, I will participate in a 3 miles sea swimming contest in France... two years ago I had a hard time swimming 50 m at once
