one is not amused
In fact I am pretty *issed off, it was weigh in night last night and as you can guess there was a gain on the cards, not a large one mind but a gain none the less. I just don’t understand what my body is playing at, at the moment, my weight is up and down like a damm yo-yo. As I mentioned in an earlier blog, I have been keeping a food diary (you write down everything you eat meal by meal (snacks included) day by day) it makes you think about what you are eating and I had a good week in the sense of what I ate. I can accept a weight gain when I have over eaten or eaten the wrong stuff but not like this. At the end of the day the scales don’t lie!
I have a doctors appointments on Friday and I will bring this weight yo-yo-ing I am having at the moment, see if she can offer some form of explanation.
Well since my two rides at the weekend my back has been feeling fine which I am pleased about . I have just booked up to do one of the Wiggle Sportive ride in the New Forest on the 2nd Oct.. There is a choice of Road or MTB\Cyclo Cross, I have entered to do the Standard MTB route which is 25-ish miles (the link above is for that ride, you will need to look for the others). Which brings me to my next dilemma, water, energy drinks, energy bars and dieting. I really don’t know what to do about this at the moment, the last thing I want to do is to start drinking loads of calories but then again I don’t want to end up cramping like I did last time, I am open to suggestions.
Had to go and have blood test yesterday accept the nurse knew nothing about my appointment apart from the fact I was turning up at 11:05am, she was expecting me to have one of those little blood test bags with the form stuck to the front of it. Fortunately between what the doctor told me and the doctors notes the nurse was able to work out what was required and took three sample from my arm. Back to the doctors on Friday for the results.
Today’s work was a drive to Tewkesbury to sort out a network issue and a printing problem, finished quicker than I had expected so went over to the head office at Willersey to collect a dead PC and take it back for repair even though I am at Willersey tomorrow. Had I left the collection of the dead PC till tomorrow I would have to wait till Thursday to get it into the repair shop.
Early to bed tonight as I will be up early tomorrow morning, now the summer has gone it is dark when I leave now.
Finally, a certain person has not subscribed to my blog, you know who you are, I only have to mention frozen Curly Wurlys and Belly Dancing and I can see your blushing face from here……………….
The weight yo-yo thing is a constant problem with all of us who use the scales. Personally I think its a case of you are really losing weight but at the point in time you weigh yourself your body has temporarily gained a bit of weight – say water or food – and I’ll bet if you weigh yourself the following day it will be a different weight. So long as the overall trend is downward theres nothing to worry about…except worrying is a fact of life lol. I weigh myself weekly and its up and down all the time as you can see from the graph on my site. Of course I have food-a-holic issues too which doesnt help heh heh.
I know I sound like a cracked record mate, but keep on keeping on. It’s all you can do.
Eating sensibly and pedalling, it’s not rocket science is it? Although the eating sensibly bit is a huge challenge…
Thanks guys, I intend to keep on keeping on, I want to loose weight but sometimes it just drives me to distraction
