Phat Fighters Q4

[Defcon5]

Oct 2nd - 80.2kg

[Smitters]

Still need to weigh in. I'm sitting here with a coffee and eating Cadbury's Eclairs. I don't think I'm doing this right.

Tomorrow, on all counts. Tomorrow.

On the plus side, the OH is doing slimmers world, so we're both being good at home.

[Pieman68]

October 2nd - 18st 9.5lbs (118.86kgs)

Let's go

Target 105kgs by the end of the year

[FredAstaire]

BANG! And they're off.

Some of you didn't state a target so I put my own figures in for you temporarily. Good luck everyone.

Good stuff looking forward to following long a should blow the target you set me, out of the water. Perfect day yesterday diet wise and went to my Sambo class last night to get thrown around. An added bonus on the scales this morning already dropped 4lb, happy days!

don't just go with my target - theres no sandbagging here! Give me your real target for the quarter....

[Stu-nph26]

Fair I'll go with 107.5 and match danplamer as we have a similar starting weight.

[Yidwann]

I'll take any exposure/kick up the ass I can get at the moment! Working away and eating out a lot has taken its toll!

Oct 1st Weigh in: 102.7kg
Target: 90kg

Lets go!

[FlyingMeeces]

Delighted with a 79.9 kg weigh-in this morning - this may be the slowest slow and steady ever, but it's definitely going in the right direction.

3 month aim of 78 kg, I'd love to manage 75 but realistically, slow and steady points to sustainable and that's the bit that actually matters.

[Defcon5]

Should we weigh in once a week fir the spreadsheet or doesn't it matter?

as little or as often as you want. I'll aim to put up a refreshed table every week. I was hit and miss with it in Q3 because I had fallen off the wagon.
I have another tab of the sheet where i record my own weight on a daily basis. Many people say you shouldn't record daily due to the fluctuations (being potentially demoralising i suppose) and that once a week is enough. I prefer to see daily so I don't get a big disappointment at the end of a week (sometimes you just get seemingly static weeks!), and also i like to plot trendlines, extrapolations etc towards certain dates.

Anyway, what I mean by above is - I come on pistonheads pretty much daily, and I have my own weight tracking sheet open pretty much daily so i can include as much data as you like in the charts, just i won't post updates of it more than once a week.

[Smitters]

74.9kg as of last night. Main goal is 71.x, stretch is 69.x.

[Electronicpants]

This time last year I was 75kg, yesterday was 83!

Aiming for 76kg this time and sustaining it.

I'm angry healthy eating today as I'm a bit pissed off with myself.

[Ki3r]

Not managed to get to the gym this week, but going Friday with a friend, not been with a friend before so hoping it will help!

[ASA569]

Oh dear, not a good start to Q4. I've been away for work this week which has meant long hours and an irregular eating pattern. Plus as I didn't take my trainers with me I was unwinding in the bar instead of the gym

Upshot is I've gained half a kilo so up from 73.2 to 73.7

[kiethton]

I'll join for this Q again if possible, seemed to lose 4kg's in Q3 before putting them back on again! However I was told I'd lost some weight yesterday?

So like last time I'm starting Q4 at 123kg's hoping to get down to 115kg's, on the way to an end goal of 95kg's

[Mischa33]

93.5kg today - down 0.5kg in the last week. Just succumbed to way too much pizza so probably back where I started!

[oldbanger]

Oops I had missed that there was a new thread for Q4

I might as well do it properly this time. I usually work in lb rather than kg so the below figures are converted.

Weight on 31 Sept 90.4 kg
Weight today 90 kg

Initial target weight 72kg

[Yidwann]

So I have had a pretty disciplined first week, not going to lie its been tough, mainly using MFP to the full, and only 1 beer all week! But eaten some pretty nice things, Joe Wicks lean in 15 book has some pretty tasty things in it.

Oct 1st weigh in: 102.7kg
Oct 8th weigh in: 99.2kg

I think the progress will slow from now on, the body is probably just in shock, but pretty stoked with that!

Right, I failed miserably in both Q2 and Q3, I know I can do this as I dropped almost 5 kilos in January this year and that was pretty much down to a dry January as very little else changed, apart from a bit more running/jogging.

I'm due to return from my holiday in Thailand tomorrow night, I posted this in the hangover thread:

[i]Coming to the end of a busy holiday in Thailand, at home I would drink pretty much (and too much) every night and wake up feeling a tad worse for wear, not properly rough but dry mouth, a bit groggy and feeling the effects for an hour or so.

Well whilst out here I've hardly drunk, some days I've not drunk anything at all, other days I've had a big bottle of Singha with my evening meal and then gone off exploring, but that's about it

Every morning I've woken up fresh as a daisy, and my sleeping heart rate has dropped dramatically, hopefully I can carry this on when I get home.[/i]

I've been here since the 30th so it'll be interesting to see what my weight is when I return, I've not over indulged on food and I've done loads of walking,

I was around 101-102 kg in the week leading up to the holiday, I'm going to aim for a 10 kg drop by the end of the year so let's call it 90 kg by the end of the year.

I'll update my weight Wednesday morning.
