Tuesday Weigh-In, start of Week 5

Ah, feels good man.

I managed to hold onto my weight loss from earlier in the week as well as advance it a tiny bit. The grand total for the 4th week is 1Kg, so down to 94.6.

I'm noticing small (very small) changes in my body due to both the weight loss and weight training (lifting). My waist is definitely smaller.  In fact,it's smaller than the smallest loop on my belt. I'll have to buy a new one soon. In addition to this, my "moobs" are still shrinking and I can now feel muscles swimming where my pectorals are.

Speaking of muscles, they are getting both a lot more prominent as well as sore these last couple of days. It's odd actually because it reminds me of how it was during the first week that I started weight lifting. I wonder what the reason for this is. I'm eating the same, I'm drinking a lot of fluids and I'm occasionally taking an anti-inflammatory on my recovery days, but it doesn't seem to be holding off the soreness today (yesterday was a gym day).

I think over all the one thing I am unsatisfied with right now is my sleeping habits. They've only barely improved from where they were prior to me starting this diet and exercise plan. Which isn't saying much because they were absolutely horrible before. 3-4 hours a night max. I'm averaging 6ish now, but I want that up close to 7-8. I'll keep trying.

Anyway, I think the photos this week are showing a general improvement. I'm hopeful that in another 4 weeks that I'll start showing a lot more definite muscle on places other than my legs (not pictured) which were already kind of muscle-bound.

My bellybutton is collapsing in on itself like a black hole!

Still shrinking. Looks like most of my weight is in my sides.

Grand total so far: 2.4kg lost in 28 days. 72 days left to lose 9.6kg. At this rate, I don't think I will be able to hit this goal unless I somehow throw in some extra cardio to flat out burn calories.
