WEIGHT-LOSS CHALLENGE: END OF WEEK SIX

Background

You can read all about the background to my weight-loss challenge from my previous blog however the short summary is that I'm trying to lose two stone in 13 weeks starting on 14th September and ending with the final weigh-in on 14th December. My starting weight on 14th September was 13 stone 12 pounds and progress so far is as follows:

- End of Week 1: 13 Stone 7.5 Pounds

- End of Week 2: 13 Stone 5.5 Pounds

- End of Week 3: 13 Stone 5 Pounds

- End of Week 4: 13 Stone 2.5 Pounds

- End of Week 5: 13 Stone 0.5 Pounds

This Week's Update (Week Six)

This week I've done one karate class (had planned to do one more on Saturday morning but was way too hungover) and walked about 16k so I haven't been quite as productive with my exercise this week, however I have been relatively good at sticking to my calorie controlled diet with the exception of Friday night where I managed to drink 3/4 of a bottle of rum whilst catching up with a good friend over video-chat.

This Week's Results (Week Six)

I'm pleased to say that I weighed in at 12 stone 11 and a half pounds meaning that I've lost a further three pounds this week. That means that in the first six weeks of my weight-loss challenge I've lost 14.5 pounds in total which also means that I've now lost over a stone! (apologies again for the photo of my Fred Flinstone feet).

This means that, as you can see from the trending graph below, I'm still on track to achieve a two-stone weight-loss within 13 weeks.

Donations for a Good Cause

In a shameless plug I'm also doing this to raise money for a good cause, Mental Health UK. If you'd like to offer a small donation all money will go directly to Mental Health UK and I would be eternally grateful. The link to my JustGiving page is below:
