Weigh-in and a few other items

I’m switching my weigh-in day to Friday.  It’s something I’ve been meaning to do for a while and I figured today was the perfect opportunity.

When I left on holiday I weighed in at 91.8 kg.  On Sunday morning after I got back I weighed in at 93.6.  This morning I was 92.1.  I seem to have undone most of the holiday damage just by eating my normal food and not overindulging on snacks.  I’m very glad that I ran while on holiday as I think it would not have nearly so easy to undo the damage then!

It’s funny how our perceptions change.  On Sunday I was feeling rather chubby as my pants were feeling a trifle tight when I bumped into someone who hasn’t seen me for over a year.  They were amazed at how skinny I looked.  Just goes to show that it’s all a matter of perception.

My weight loss counters are not working at the moment as Traineo is in the middle of an upgrade and they are still trying to fix that functionality.  I’ll leave them in even though they aren’t showing as I’m sure they’ll get fixed soon.

I had a good run this morning.  I ran for an hour and did 10.99 km while keeping my heart rate at 146 or below.

I’m off on holiday again today.  I’m going to Christchurch (in New Zealand) to spend the Christmas holidays with my parents.  So the next post will probably be reporting in on my long run on Sunday. :)

    At least your weight is not fluctuating wildly. You are able to keep them in close range which is good.

    Enjoy your time up in Christchurch with your folks! I can imagine how beautiful it is at this time of the year especially when its getting closer to Christmas.

    Another holiday sounds good! This year is quite busy at work and I’m only taking the stat days off.

    Sounds like perfectly normal holiday weight fluctuations to me!

    The low heart rate running sounds intriguing, would you recommend it for someone trying to get back in the swing of hitting the treadmill or is it for more advanced runners only?

    Less than 2 kg gained over three weeks? That’s a victory in and of itself.

    Welcome home, temporary as it is.
