The battle with the weight

How's the fitness and weight loss going, I've now dropped 21lbs but as the colder weather starts coming in, the craving for comfort food starts and it's getting harder to just ignore it, I've at least another stone minimum to come off and I'm determined this time.

Not bad. Weight is remaining pretty constant but I’m feeling good, defo picking up strength. Reckon if I can eat a bit cleaner as I’ve fallen into a few bad habits but if I kick that then the body fat will come off again.

Indoor climbing defo proving to be something worthwhile. You feel it the next day.

Gym classes are also helping as although it’s just one a week, I can take some of that stuff home and use it with my partners weights and kettlebells.

I’m keeping my breakfast and food at work constant - breakfast is half a tub of Lidl’s no fat protein yoghurt with defrosted cherries and raspberries and five crushed meringue kisses (Farmfoods and Home Bargains have them from time to time so I get a few packs when they do - ten calories a meringue kiss).

To work I take two satsumas, two Babybell lights, a bottle of Lidls vanilla protein shake (under 200 calories, 35g of protein), half a pack of Lidls sliced chicken breast with some hot sauce, and a pouch of Grahams Skyr. Eat little and often so never feeling properly full, but never hungry either.

All that comes to about 100-120g of protein, 800 calories, and gives me a decent tea when I’m home to play with.

Grazing food is the way to go as you never get hungry, well done so far.
