Going to do Spin and yoga tonight - I love Wednesdays!

I did my assessments at the gym this morning. Very disappointing. In 3.5 weeks I have lost 0.5kg of body fat and no other changes. Nothing, nada, zilch. Muscle mass exactly the same (which is fine with me), but only -0.5kg body fat. Not enough! I wonder what they would have been last Thursday when I was a bit happier with the scales.

A loss is a loss I guess, but I'm really down about it. I am not someone on Biggest Loser who is crying that they only lost 4kg in a week, -0.5kg in 3.5 weeks is a bit different.

There was nearly tears in the gym. Rusty's advice is to increase the intensity in my training. So this morning we smashed it - over the past 4 weeks I've only been averaging about 550 calories for a 1 hour session. This morning 723. I'm going to focus on doing that and see where I am at on Saturday. If I can get back closer to 83kg by Saturday I'll keep going as I am. If not I'll look at my diet again - I have no idea what to change, so I deal with it when I have to.
