Week 11 - Tuesday 20 July...I'm BACK Baby!!!

OH MY G....O....D!!! Where to start??? Well let's start with the basics...weigh in...now as we all know I had gone AWOL and was hopelessly lost on the Utopian Planet of Noexercise...in spite of the admirable efforts of my trusty support team G-Star, Bastardo and Madster...the only way back from this enticing and fattening universe was my own shear will power and determination.... determination to not let me or you, my supporters, down!!

So with dread in my heart and a lot of trepidation I headed back to Satan's Lair first thing Tuesday morning ready for a punishing work out with the Bastardo...however, first things first...the death dealers were awaiting my arrival with their sinister point 004's and snarling over 100kg's...

And the result...well let's just look at it from the competition perspective...I don't want to ruin the anticipation for you...

That's right people...it's taken 10 weeks but I have officially (at least for one week) NOT come in last in the Australian competition...yeh for ME!!! My incredibly dark week of fat funk appears to have reinvigorated me and given my body the opportunity to FINALLY GET WITH THE PROGRAM and realise that what I am trying to do is actually a GOOD THING!! So, in spite of doing absolutely no exercise whilst we were in Melbourne (other than walking hundreds if not thousands - I'm being melodramatic here people...work with me - in search of retail therapy) the fact that I remained very determined not to overindulge in the caloric sense appears to have paid dividends!! I lost 900g or 0.9kg and am now teetering on the brink of only semi fatness (under 100kg) with a weigh in of 100.4kg for week 10!!!

Completely off the pace in the US series this week...go figure....

So with a new umph in my step and a new vibe in my attitude I hit Satan's Lair with aplomb today and gave an absolutely stellar performance in my PT session:

Session Length: 32min
Calorie Burn: 269
Fat %: 25%

And believe me...the session HURT!!! However, with my new attitude and vibe (at least I am trying to convince myself of that) I decided that after 2 weeks off due to my fathlete injury it was time to climb back on to the dreadmill and completely debase myself in a puddle of my own sweat...so booked in a run with the Bastardo for 3.00pm:

Session Length: 58min
Calorie Burn: 477
Fat%: 25%

So although not a BIG day time wise it was a good day being back in Satan's clutches and burning the fat!! This combined with a great food day thanks to my personal Chef...the Madster with beautiful combinations of vegetable rice paper rolls and a low,low fat beef nachos for dinner as well as my scrambled egg whites and sour dough for breakfast...this week is off to a flying start!

Feeling good people and am back in the mind set that I may, just may actually be able to do this...

Yours in fatness
