just thought i'd post

I think the excesses of christmas are over now. I've been quite good,
but gained 2-3 pounds over my prechristmas weight (back at 210 again).
I did manage to keep up the exercise. I overdid the eating one day by
quite a lot but then went on to do a weights session and 45 minutes of
cardio to make up. Did a few more reasonable sessions as well.

Just come from the supermarket. Tesco has all sorts of keep fit
equipment at half price. From dumbells to a powered York treadmill at
£430 (which I covet). Theres a nice York weights bench for £70 which
is a bit of a bargain. If you are in the UK and thinking of getting
fit now's your chance to pick up some good stuff cheap.

We had goose for Christmas with roast veges. It's the first goose I've
had and it was superb. We'll definately be having another soon.

Got 20KG in weights and a new weight bar for christmas (EZ-CURL bar),
and a mug for hot chocolate to even out my karma I also got
skinfold caplipers and a heart rate monitor, which I'd chosen ages ago
but have been wrapped up and waiting for weeks. The heart rate monitor
especially is very useful.

good luck to everyone. Hope you all enjoyed Christmas, and are now
ready to get back on program.

congrads on doing well over the holdays Ray. I did the same was fairly good
over christmas eve and christmas day and i gained a couple of pounds but i
lost them again after a couple of days being back on track. i also wrote
everything down that i ate to which helped didn't keep track of pointds,
carbs or anything like that but it helped to still write it down.
anyway keep up the good work.

Sounds like you've got quite an arsenal now to attack and track that extra
weight I've always wanted to get calipers. Let us know how useful you
find them.

Not really got to grips with them yet.
There are loads of skinfold bodyfat calculators on the web and they
all come up with different reading. Anything from 33% to 20%. I also
have a electronic thing that says I'm about 26-27% so I'm looking for
a calculator that comes somewhere close to that.
Of course I'm probably doing the measuring wrong, so I'll have to find
out about that too
I think 26/27 looks about right 'cos 25% is the top end of normal, and
i'm still a few pounds over 'normal' weight. The two should converge
at about the same time.

Sounds like you are rarin' to go now, Ray. With all that exercise gear
you are going to be unstoppable!! Gaining 2-3 lbs over Christmas is
pretty good and it will be gone in no time!
