A quick update…

This is potentially the most rambled of all my posts…so hope this doesn’t turn you off. I hope any challenges you’re doing you’re succeeding in and remember life happens in between stuff so it’s cool to have a blip (The Body Coach or Mr Motivator would never say this).

So it’s been a challenging week and a bit on the #bisontenweekchallenge as I’ve had some real curve balls thrown at me.

Amongst being a busy bee up and down the country and having lots of cracking work to do I seemingly have squeezed in leaving dos for friends, a tapas and Albariño frenzy with a client mate in Manchester, a media stag do (they basically involve excessive fun and drink for all), a beautiful wedding in Stratford Upon Avon with delicious food and drink on tap, a curry cooked by a mate in Leeds washed down with his home made beer and breads (do me a favour…no man on the planet would turn this down!), lunch with more client mates at restaurants where you can’t avoid the carbs, an evening with mates where unlimited chicken wings was on the menu (technically allowed), and a spa trip where I managed to be good…ish and have salad type products with a few vinos.

Ah…just another thing to add that I did and I realised the other weekend. If you eat a steak that weighs circa 2kg then this will probably also harbour you for a few days and portion size really does matter even when eating lots of protein!

Ultimately I’ve basically committed a few cardinal sins by going off grid and not sticking to my rules. As well as this I’ve basically not been to the gym! I have been maintaining step levels most days but just had a bit of a shocker.

Despite this I’m still half a stone down from the start weight so just another 21 pounds to go to victory. Need to make more time for the gym. 

Saw Adrian Mole the musical at the theatre on Monday evening and reminded me that writing all this nonsense down is pretty useful for me to look at where I might be going wrong…or right for that matter. No tales of Pandora or Bert Baxter in this #bisontenweekchallenge though and I doubt we will turn my blog into a musical…although anyone out there that wants to make this a reality just holla!
Keep classy, enjoy life and be focussed in everything you do. As long as you recognise where you balls it up you will continue to get better.

Here’s to the next 7 weeks and 21 pounds to go! Yikes!
