First kilo is gone. Yay! :D

It's proven much harder to do than in the past, so I've stepped it up somewhat - I bought a bike and am planning on riding to work 2-3 times a week, starting from next week. Hopefully 15kms a day a couple of times a weeks will speed things along a bit, as well as working on my fitness.

1kg down, only 11 more to go. :(

Lately I've been getting a little depressed about the fact that I'm slowly... err... expanding.

I've gained maybe 2kgs in the last month or two, despite making half-hearted attempts to go the other way. Add the fact that I'm now at I think the heaviest I've ever weighed in my life, and it adds up to a depressingly round Aaron.

So I'm doing something about it. I'm going back to my old "low fat, low sugar, less of" diet that has worked for me in the past, as well as upping my exercise routine. I'm even considering buying a bike and riding to work, though I don't know how I'll feel about that when summer arrives so I'm still thinking on that one.

I've set myself a goal of 12 kgs in the next 3 months, which I think is both realistic (1kg per week) and will leave me at a weight I'd be much happier with. I'll try and update here on my progress each week for some extra motivation.

So here's hoping for a slimmer, fitter, happier me in a few short months time.

And on that note, it's time to hit the treadmill



PS, I almost titled this post "Fat Fuck vs Food" a la Kevin Smith's battle, because I'm starting to hear those words every time I eat/exercise/weigh in/see myself in a mirror lately.
