Spring will soon be upon us, though my Daffodils came out at Xmas. And it's time to have a look at my progress (or not, as the case may be) and update my stats after 2 months.
Just to recap, when I started this on Jan 1 the intention was clear to make small changes throughout the year and aim to make my life better, feel stronger, more active and happier. I can safely say that so far so good, but as with all progress it helps to have some other form of measure.
I took some simple measurements in Jan so I could compare throughout the year, I would love to lose some weight this year and here is where we began 2016 at;
Opening Weight at 1st Jan -- 23st 6lb
Measurements (inches)
Neck -- 22
Chest -- 54
Stomach -- 57
Waist -- 48
Thighs -- 27
Biceps -- 14
Revised Weight as at 4th March -- 22st 13lb
-- I've lost 7lb that's fantastic news.
Small victories but very happy with that outcome.
Measurements (inches)
Neck -- 21
Chest -- 54
Stomach -- 56
Waist -- 47
Thighs -- 27
Biceps -- 15
Not a big amount of change elsewhere but the waistline is going down as my clothes are much looser especially in the trousers. I have just ordered a few new pairs to replace these anyway and the belts have had new holes drilled in them.
Now I know some of that change is caused by natural stretching of fabric, I'm not totally stupid, however it's still pleasing to see small gains / losses and will keep me going into spring and onwards.
Still not looking too great, but it was Saturday morning to be fair at the crematorium and I hadn't shaved or got my mojo on yet.
