Results from my 6 week body transformation are in. Loss of 5.6kg, and body fat from 30% to 26%. Interestingly, calliper tests showed I lost more fat from my back than stomach, and that my arms gained muscle and lost fat as they remained same circumference but with reduction in fat percentage.

Overall, happy given in the 6 weeks I had my annual golf trip away with mates (try NOT drinking beer and over-eating in a shared house with 10 mates for a long weekend!) AND our work Xmas Party AND my annual Xmas Drink with mates from our park footy (Rugby League).

At the moment, we are in Xmas mode so nutrition has gone off track a little, but will recover as soon as we get past Boxing Day on 26th December. I'll still do gym and cardio so shouldn't be too much of an issue.

Well, at the half way mark of the 6 week Beach Body Challenge, I'd lost 3 kilograms. I have been given some very positive feedback from gym owner. I'm not sure of the measurements (skin folds, weight etc) but I figured there must have been some improvement based on weight loss.

Today we had last weigh in and measurements. Lost another 2.6 kilograms, total of 5.6 kilograms in 6 weeks.

Not bad considering I had a work Xmas Party on Friday night followed by another big drink with school mates the next night. Both finishing at around 3am!

I should find out the other measurements this week or at latest on Sunday night at the gym Christmas Party. I will keep up the nutrition program and slightly modify gym program back a notch. Any cardio will include some work designed to get my heart rate elevated for short periods.

Christmas coming up so I will allow myself a little bit of leeway.
