OK. Figures:
- First body fat is down by 1%
- Weight is now 12st 1lb
That’s just from cutting out sugars and processed carbohydrates and, to be honest, not a lot else.
That’s due to one thing: PLANNING! Or, actually, lack of it!
“Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan” Tom Landry
To say I did not put enough into the planning of my food is an understatement I basically did not plan anything. This is not down to work or being too tired I just did not organize my time better to sort out my food.
So my aims for Saturday to get me ready for a proper healthy week,
- Step 1: Plan a week’s food diary
- Step 2: From the food diary write up a shopping list
- Step 3: Plan a week’s activity diary
- Step 4: Review plan all the way
All in this plan should take no longer than an hour to get together and having a plan especially for exercise is going to help me stick to my training and lets me map out what exercises I am going to do and when.

I am going to sit down with Mark one of our top personal trainers who is getting some excellent results with his clients using the same principles as I am utilizing. Hopfully, with the extra motivation that a PT session will give me, will help get on me on the path to achieving my goals in a shorter time frame.
