21.5kg loss!!!!!!
And the last few days I've been feasting and only walked once.
Shows the Italian diet really really sucked. You can't exchange diet coke for olive oil and think that real food is going to save you............
Also I think the 4 Coothas I did the last week worked a treat.
How exciting. Well, still gunning for the 25kg this year. Going to try and do Cootha every single morning I can, and if I can't I want to walk in the afternoon.
And keep up the curries.
Awesome Grogger - you have lost over 40lbs which is unbelievable! So the year approaches, will you be back on the Grog or is that it for the forseeable? Do you feel, think, react differently to life now after a year off the turps? When you re-read your early posts do you really feel the change? Just interested to observe how you might feel about the bloke who started this journey neraly a year ago and whether you still recognised the way he felt, thought, approached life?
ReplyDeleteMate, you've got all the questions...... Not to give away the ending, but there is no way I'm going back on the grog in the near term. I would have to be crazy wouldn't I? I still have so far to go with my transformation from a pissed, fat slob to the fit guy who walks past and gets people talking. I want to be fit and lean enough to participate in a tri and actually look like a guy who does. I do feel differently about life now. I'm not stumbling from one pissup to the next. I feel a clarity I did not have. I have much more time. I'm smarter. I feel ashamed for 20 years of being pissed and watching life go by. If I look back at the earlier posts I see a fat guy justifying an addiction (socially and physically) by reference to mateship and sophistication. Neither were helping me get my life on track. I feel I'm part way through a journey that will largely see me unrecognisable from that person, both physically and mentally.
ReplyDeleteI would have to be bonkers to stop. I'll reassess in a few years perhaps.
I'm really proud of you mate!
ReplyDeleteYou have changed so much since we first started chatting.
This is not the end but the beginning of something amazing!
I was telling some friends on Sunday how we first met through my blog. I lost the plot and you kicked ass. I'm really glad you did mate because you were one of my main inspirations for trying again. For that I thank you. Like you my life just gets better everyday.
I honestly feel that we are the ones who gain now not the other way around.
Finish this thing as strong as you can.
Cheers mate.
Brett.
