    @JBanx256 - Thank you for your continued support and encouragement!

    @ReenieHJ - When the going gets tough I like to fall back onto familiar habits, so yes. Hopefully it helps to keep it going.

    Hope that all of you are rocking and rolling on your workouts. :)

    Week 3 Day 4: Feeling stiff and tired today I decided to shut it down, take care that my body has ample time to recover and take my rest day this week today. No work out. Back tomorrow. :)

    Week 3 Day 5: Back after an early rest day. Felt well-rested but was stiff as I started my run and had to concentrate on breathing and relaxing into my run. Stiffness passed quickly and the run ended up being easy. 3.78 miles in 67 minutes. Barbell shoulder press 1x7 @105lbs, 4x7 @115lbs, 1x5 @115lbs.

    You've got this! I've dropped 70lbs so far with maybe another 40lbs to go and it's all been walking/cycling so far but I've joined PureGym to fit around my long hours at work, am starting couch to 5k soon and will chuck in some home workout bodyweight stuff when I can't get to the gym. I've added you as a friend

    Week 3 Day 6: Had a work function that went late. Abstained from alcohol but came home late tired. Could have worked out late but didn't want to put my body through the grinder after a long day. Back on it tomorrow. :smile:

    Week 3 recap:
    Ran 18.69 miles over 5 training sessions.
    Did 3 days of lat pulldowns and 2 days of barbell shoulder press.
    Kept largely within caloric parameters. Exercise derailed a little and weight went up slightly but it all seems within tolerance. :)
