waist measuring over navel: 79.5 (yess!) And I can really also tell visually that it's smaller today. But this can be due to less gases.
Ok! :) so I gained some weight today, this was expected, and it was possibly due to having eaten like an animal yesterday. The only reason why I'm not even heavier is because I'm very dehydrated (I forgot to drink water after weight training which is very bad :P) But, happily, my belly is smaller today! Drinking water is great to lose weight since, similarly to exercise, it increases metabolism and that's why I always try to remind myself to drink my allotted daily amount. You shouldn't drink too much though because that'd be bad for you, like with anything :)
My plan from now on is, indoor cycling every day, and weight training every 3 days. If that turns out to be too much exercise, I'll skip cycling on weight training days. I'm also planning not to "kill" myself while weight training (not doing sets till failure) so I won't get traumatized and keep finding excuses not to train again. Consistent moderate weight training has to be far more effective than irregular extreme training.
I'll also try to start eating less chocolate and sugar from now on and more fruits and vegetables!
Yesterday I had to get out right after weight training, that's why I ate those chicken nuggets (to get protein). On my way back, I was wearing sport clothing and, because I had a long walk till I got home and I still hadn't taken a shower, I decided to run the rest of the course instead. That way I'd be getting some aerobic exercise for the day and get home faster. I'm not going to start running now but it was a way to join the useful to the practical. Running is really really hard when you're not used to. When you're used to, it's much easier...
edit: I'm also trying to get myself to try to stop eating breakfast cereals, too many of which classify as junk food. Additionally, I was surprised to find out today how many calories a very small portion had. They are tempting because of taste but they're loaded with sugar and, sometimes also with salt.
