    ok time to really go all out and see the results i want in the gym and the only way to do this is set up a log of my diet and gym routine.
    Gonna do it for eight weeks, reduce alcohol intake to 10 units a week, have a cheet day every two weeks and go to the gym/class five days a week.

    Hey LouLou, just to say keep up the effort and should see the results in no time, keeping the log will really help.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 171 ✭✭LouLou1


    Thanks DV6..
    Just got a shock at the gym, bf% is 33.8.... thought it would only be around 28..... HHHHMMMM
    Having said that it's just the kick up the backside I need to keep going...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 189 ✭✭dv6


    How did they calc the BF %? If it was with a scales or a thing you hold in your hand then you can disregard the results as these are not accurate. Only true way to measure is with a callipers as far as i know.

    It also just dawned on me that I'll have to pop into the health shop on the way to work tomorrow, get a bag of nuts, lentils that kinda thing to use in my diet, vary it up a bit, kinda eating the same thing every day. Although I like the food I'm eating, don't want to get bored of it either...

    Went to the gym and was told my bodyfat was 33.8%... gonna buy one of those caliper things to do it myself... just found a site there only $13... excellent.....

    Today was a rest day so no gym routine to post

    i feel your pain i have often done it, watching my diet all day , training in the evening. everything going according to plan and its as if i have a blackout cos all of a sudden i come too half way through a yorkie:D

    but what harm really, if we eat right the majority of days its ok to have a treat every once in a while.

    best of luck with your log and training, your doing great keep it up

    Thanks for the reply 05MAV, will try and be more on the ball....
    I have noticed I've been letting it slip the last while, first droped doing the fool diary everyday, now I have the best part of 3 days logs in one reply.... Once I'm putting in the same effort with the diet and gym stuff... should be fine....
    Will be away for the weekend so hopefully will get to the gym Thurs and Friday before a little break with the posts... till next tues probably
