First things first my starting weight was 93,6kg. Pretty heavy for a small guy (173cm). We, my competition and I, had discussed the challenge for a while and I actually lost 0,6kg from the previous week. But that does not count for this period although I know in my heart of hearts that I had actually peaked in weight a few weeks before.

So as you can see I hit all my targets and the final goal for this period. Many of the targets were very close together but the fact that there were a few weeks between most of them meant that I always had the motivation to hit the next target quickly.
How I actually achieved the weight loss will be in the next post. You can see from the chart though that there actually isn't much of a correlation with activity. As stated activity is not exercise per se. It is mostly walking and being up on my feet. I plan to incorporate some gym type work in the next stint.
Do you think these incremental targets would help you if they were modified to your weight and ambition?
