What's with the Chisel? I need a Jack-hammer

I worked very hard all week. I went to the gym 5 out of the 7 days. I did plenty of cardio work while there.
I only had 2 stubbies of beer all week. I even chose a healthy takeout option when we  had no food in the house, so why the bloody hell was my result not as good as I had hoped?

I have to admit I am applying myself at the gym very well these days, not at all like my school reports ever suggested. Somedays even going over an hours worth of cardio workout. Not doing the same thing all the time and pushing myself. Even my gym instructor commented that he could feel the energy from me after I had removed myself dripping from the cross trainer. But it seems its not enough.

My food was good all week, although maybe the amount of bread I consumed in the last few days before weigh in had something to do with it. Something I will endeavour to curb this week to see if it makes a difference. Come Sunday night, after a great day DJing at Music in the Park, I actually got myself down to the gym. Knowing there was no food in the house I gave us the green light to get takeout. I could choose from KFC (my favourite) McDonalds, Fish and Chips, Curry, Chinese, Kebab...but I eventually went to Subway.

Now my Subway experience was ok...getting to create a masterpiece full of salads...but eating healthy comes at a cost. I could have got away with spending just over 10 bucks getting Fish and Chips but Subway set us back $20. I would eat more of it if it was cheaper. So come on Subway...do the world a favour and charge less than my car's alternator.

So yes, I have to admit I am very disappointed with my results this week, so lets see those figures.

Start Weigh in: 101kg
2 weeks ago: 92.7 kg
Last week 93.0 kg
Today 92.7 kg

I haven't gone anywhere in two weeks! Now I'm thinking scalpel and vacuum cleaner.
