I have now been working out consistently at least 3-4 days every week for 3 months! Nice to be a gym rat again!! I had my measurements taken and had lost 2.5lbs, but gained a few pounds of muscle. I lost 6lbs of fat and a total of 4 inches (2 from my waist!) overall!! Yay! So I lost 3.5% body fat which is on the lower end for working out but I wasn't doing a lot of cardio. I stepped that up this week and tweaked my diet via myfitness pal actually was down to 150lbs this morning!! I definitely look more toned so I am heading in the right direction. I am feeling more motivated lately so that is helping. I am in this for the long haul so I don't see an end point per se. Just want to be consistent and hope that I lose more body fat. That is more my goal. Weight loss would be a nice perk though!! My next hurdle will be a 15-day trip to WI!! Yikes. I plan to bring along some stretchy cables and maybe an exercise video and then try to walk a lot since the weather should be nice there. It was 116 here yesterday so outdoor exercise was not a great option!
Will post more hopefully soon. Oh, I almost forgot! The gym is getting rid of semi private personal training!!!!! So disappointed. I was really enjoying the training. I will have to start going to the muscle class that is similar to strength/cardio classes i have taken in the past. We will see how it goes. Off to bed before my stomach starts grumbling...
I can do this!
