About that weight-loss issue…

So…I’ve been avoiding this issue for awhile – namely the lack of updates on my progress. Why? Because there has been no progress . Ever since I stopped Turbofire due to a back injury I sort of stopped exercising all together. I still had some spunk to exercise by going for walks etc for some time after the injury. But then we went on holiday and ever since then my motivation has just slowly dissipated. We still eat healthy meals mostly but without the exercise, it has just kept the weight stable. I guess it was the combination of a few factors which brought this about but lets not get into that.

What happened to my Turbofire workouts?

Hello everyone! Thought I would take a break from travel related stuff to update about Turbofire. As you can see, I have not updated the chart.

I have unfortunately had to stop doing the workout . Its a shame really as I was starting to enjoy it and really get into a routine.

Turbofire: Week 4 and 5

Back to update on Turbofire during one of my million breaks from study. I currently have an assessment to last me through the Easter weekend. Yay me…..

 

So as you can see I missed updating on Week 4. I guess I put it off for a couple of reasons….

  1. I somehow sustained an injury to my knee and shoulders. Served me right for not stretching out before class and pivoting while I punch perhaps.
  2. I was really busy trying to catch up on study.
  3. I was feeling really unmotivated to blog about Turbofire as it didn’t seem like I was losing much weight.
  4. I skipped quite a few classes and felt really guilty.
