So here are the results of one week of working out-it looks like I am on the right track so far!
Week 1 Results:
Weight: 205.0
Body fat %: 41.3
BMI: 33.7
Weeks til goal: 70 weeks
Comparison to Initial Weigh-In:
Weight loss: 2.8 lbs
Fat % loss: .89%
Weeks til goal: Dropped 3 weeks
Yay! Almost three pounds lost this week. That's healthy and honestly, better than expected. I guess I thought that it would take a few weeks to have any drop in weight. However, I am still MILES away from "feeling" skinnier. I must admit that my energy level feels much better than last week when I wasn't doing anything to help myself be healthy and fit.
Once I get into a consistent routine for my workouts, I'll make sure to share the nitty-gritty details. At this point, I am not pushing it too hard so I don't get a strain or injury related to my workouts. Let's face it, there is more weight on my knees, feet, etc and it's going to take muscle strength and time before my body can handle a strenuous workout that's 110% hardcore. Know what I mean?
I will share what I did this week: At work, instead of a smoke break, I walk 4 stories of stairs in my bldg 5 times. At lunch, I do an hour of low intensity cardio (walk a few miles, bike 10 miles, etc.). Then after work, I go to the gym and do more cardio and weight train every other day OR I do an hour long class that focuses on cardio (zumba, sh'bam, aqua fit).
I am so happy that one week is down. It takes 90 days to get into a routine and I am that much closer to changing my life :)
Love with all my bum,
CH
