1074 calories in 2:05... including warm up and stretch, 45 mins on the elliptical, more stretching, 3 sets of 12 of 9 different strength training exercises (omg deadlifts), then cool down. i'm gonna go eat a small bowl of ice cream now.
Hey ladies. Things are a little stressful right now, but the good news is in a week or two I will be a resident of Alaska after a 4 month delay. I'm really excited about the future to say the least. =) I'm trying to watch what I eat and I made myself get my strength workout in this morning, so I'm trying my best to do what I can when I can.
helped a friend move last night, wore my heart rate monitor. it says i burned 760 calories carrying things down the stairs (but luckily not back up them!), and into her new place. i figured that was good enough, forget the gym heh.
i'm just wondering why i am not losing any weight. i understand water retention in the muscles from strength training, yada yada, but i highly doubt i'm adding enough muscle/water to completely cancel out any change on the scale from fat loss.
uber frustrating.
tempted to give up, except i seem to keep losing inches. BLAH.
tomorrow is the first of april! considering going back to daily weighing, i lost consistently when i was there before and i'm hoping the daily numbers will give me some insight.
I'm alive. Just tired and sneezing/snuffly. and tired of being sneezy/snuffly
Mandy, hang in there. I know this can be very frusterating. I gained back a few lbs but refuse to change my ticker. I measured and I seam to have lost an inch or two around my upper ribs but no where else! ACK!
Kim, glad to hear things are going so well for you.
Kim - I'm glad things are working out for you and that you will be joining your DH in Alaska.
Mandy - Hang in there and don't give up. Tomorrow is the start of a new month and I am also planning to make April a great one. I know we can have a great month if we just put our minds to it and stay 100% OP for all 30 days. During March I had some good days but I also had some bad days so I didn't lose any weight.
Penguin - Hopefully your allergies will be gone soon.
Here's to a great April for us. I'll start the new thread.
boo.
