Happy Weekend Behind

It's December already tomorrow and it feels this year has gone so fast in the end. I'm so happy at the moment that I decided to use this year at home also to myself and my own wellbeing in addition to our son and the family. Nowadays I'm thinking during the pram walks that I'm earning extra years to my life with every step. It's very motivating. 

This weekend I kept one day beforehand planned break to my GoJuttaGo diet and ate chocolate cake, chips, gingerbreads and other delicacies on Saturday night when we had Christmas party with couple of my friends here at home. Kids were in my parents house two nights and we were there alternately one night with the husband so we both got own time overnight at home. It was the first night when me and the son slept separately. Luckily he is also daddy's boy so he didn't mind..

My weight was 0.5 kilogrammes higher this Sunday morning compared to the lowest result so I think the break will only boost the diet a bit. And I ran 90 minutes today as usual so the extra calories might be already burned..

Here comes yesterday's fitness test results. No big change to the previous ones but part of the drills were better and then the others were worse than last time. For example, I could do only 4 men's push-ups and my best result is 10 and that's why my strength has worsen.

-2 Two Kilogrammes in Two Weeks and -18.5 Kilogrammes All Together!

Hi, I'm officially back to my own decade since I broke 70 kilogrammes. In this morning weigh-in my scale showed 68.5 kilogrammes. WoW! After 1.5-2.5 kilos I weight the same as when I got married. And since I start this GoJuttaGo diet I have lost steadily 3.5 kilos in 3.5 weeks.

I'll return later with the fitness test results.

Have a nice Friday!

More Walking, Diet and X Jump Hating!

I added more walking to my training program to have more exercising with low heart rates as was proposed in bicycle ergometer test. Now I try to walk three times a week 30-60 minutes before I start to run again. I hope it's also makes easier the 90 minutes running exercises I do during the weekends 'cause walking helps to keep my metabolism on higher level in between the long runs.

Diet goes very well. It's easier and easier to follow as far as I have learned the amount of the dishes by heart. 

The only thing I hate at the moment is the aerobic sessions of my Nike+ Kinect Training program. The sessions are so hard and long nowadays. 12 drills which have to be done two rounds include 4 different drills of X jumps. Nice. Earlier the drills where I ran with high knees and jumped in between were killing me but now there are also drills where I should only do X jumps for 60 seconds included.

About Ten Weeks Left

It's only about ten weeks still and this project is over. And seven weeks before Christmas. I'm not sure if I can reach the target I set in January to lose 24.5kgs but I'm much more leaner than earlier with the same weight that it might be possible to still fit into my own old wedding dress. I think that's more important than the actual number of kilos I've been able to lose. And most important thing is that exercising, running and proper eating is nowadays something that I don't have to think actively, so the probability that all the fat is gone forever is high.

But the project is not yet over. Work is continuing every day and I'm again a kilo lighter than last Friday, so everything is still possible. Now, I just should remember to pick the wedding dress from my parents house to try it on..

How Was Your Weekend?

Mine just went as usual. Saturday we spent time with the kids while daddy was hunting moose and we did father's day preparations meanwhile. Cake for dad and T-shirt with drawings for grandpa. Then we walked and played outdoors.

Sunday was time to wake up daddy with singing, cards and presents. Then quick visit to the cemetary and candles to the grave of my father in law. Then coffee and cake in my parents house. I managed to avoid all the cakes and temptations the whole day. Afternoon I spent 90 minutes in rain by jogging and in the evening I went to swim with our middlest.

Now I have felt tired because I didn't rest enough, once again, during the weekend. Hopefully couple of naps during the week energizes me back to normal.

Weigh-in

I lost -1.5kgs in two weeks and I have now followed the new diet only less than two weeks. BMI is now 24.4 and my total weight loss from the beginning of the project is 16.5kgs meaning that my weight today is 70.5 kilogrammes. Soon, I'll break a decade again and this time it's my own target decade and it will be the last time in my life that I say goodbye to 70ies.

My progress is found from the Milestones page.

First Week of New Diet Behind

..and I'm so glad I did it without falling for any temptations. I guess I have lost already 1-1.5 kilos since monday. In addition, I tried running with new heart rate limits and ran 90 minutes route yesterday. It was nice but still slow. But I guess I'm proceeding and will be in better running shape next summer than ever..! And some trousers are again too big. At least couple of pairs I bought before my latest pregnancy. Nice! I should blog a second part of the post Saying Goodbye to Too Big Clothes soon.
