This week I have lost 3/4 lb (0.3 Kg) and my % body fat has increased by 1%.
I have started to do more training sessions as the weather has improved, so I was expecting a weight loss this week but a bit surprised that my % body fat increased.

Gym Session with Different Music
Tonight I did a gym session. I increased the weights back to the normal session values after easing back in to it the last couple of sessions.
It was quite busy still after the new year, I supose the poor weather outside has helped that.
While on a cardio machine listening to one of the radio stations wich most cardio machines have a headphone connection for on came Ernie (The Fastest Milkman in the West), normally it is high BPM dance stations but it was a classic oldies station. For those that can't remember it there is a video of it on youtube. Also if you can't remember the days of when you got milk delivered to your doorstep instead of getting it in a supermarket look here.

No Exercise Today
As there was only 1cm snow this morning and very little snow predicted I though it would be ok drive to work today instead of walking like I did for the last few days.
The drive to work was ok it did start to sleet a bit. When I got to work it snowed for most of the day!!
So by the time I left the car park was a bit more interesting plus there was about 5cm of snow everywhere. Typically the only place where there were a lot cars was were I had parked. So I had to be careful giving the revs enough to get out but not too much so I could not stop before hitting a car.
Once I got of the site the main ring road and other roads were all jammed which made the stop starting in the snow and icy a bit interesting, espically up a slip road where my car wheels were spinning but I was not going anywhere.
When I finally got home it took me 5 minutes longer driving today than it did to walk back!!
If there is any doubt in the weather next week I think I will walk it.

Weekly Weigh-in
This week I have gained 3/4 lb (0.4 Kg) and my % body fat decreased by 1%.
I was expecting a lot worse than that due to the amount of food and drink I had at two party last weekend. Also I have not been able to do any running due to the snow and ice. However I have been walking a lot more this week mainly the walking to and from work each day.
Hopefully the weather improves soon so I can get out and run again.

Exercise in the Snow
Due to the snow I will not be running but I did walk to and from work which is about a total of 5 miles (8 km) with a back pack on.
This was also a good exercise for my ankle as the snow was uneven. The icy conditions also required more force to move forward so was a better exercise than normally walking this route.
