Still Alive and Kicking!

It has been a while since my last post.  I didn’t realize how much of a creature of habit I am; what I mean is not having a routine is really making it difficult for me to keep on that weight loss track.

So I’m kind of stuck in a limbo at the moment.  I gave myself a wake up call this weekend just by reading through this blog from the start.  I am reviewing and refreshing my goals, I’ll be sure to post them soon.

So I have been inactive for the last 2-3 weeks, first of all I stopped working out due to my hip. The pain was increasing and I took myself off to the A&E; they gave me an x-ray and currently I am waiting on an appointment to see a specialist.  But in the mean time I have been given some pain killers and the green light to keep lifting and sweating onwards.

I should have started working out again a week ago, but I had many excuses that kept me from doing so (none of them real of course).  But I started back yesterday and need to force myself onwards and beat this wilderness experience that I am currently walking through.

I will have a new SMARTER principle up for my new revised goals by the end of this week.  I am going to give myself 2 weeks before logging a weight loss, so that means my next weigh-in will be on the 25th of October.

I really need to have a clear run at weight loss before Christmas and New Year’s comes, they will no doubt bring some gut gains.
