Week 2 Day 7

Two workouts in thus far today and….tah dah! It’s measurement time again!!

Upper Arm	10.375”	10.5”
Weight as of 6/20/10	129 lbs

I was afraid to say anything about breaking the 130 lb barrier yesterday, but it looks like the measurement is consistent!! My original goal weight was 122 lbs by the end of July and this certainly keeps me on track.

Thus far a total of 4.625″  and 5 lbs lost.  I’m happy and feeling great about the progress thus far.

I’ll post the latest pictures later.

Week 1 Day 7

Made it through all the workouts despite a late start. However, I didn’t feel much like eating, so it ended up being a “fast day” for me. I finally had a little roasted chicken (without the skin) and steamed broccoli just to keep something in my system.

I feel good.  The workouts had me sweating and shaking by the time I was done, but nothing that I didn’t recover from with a bit of hydration and rest. I was tempted to simply push the fast into the next three days to allow me more time for working on my school work catch-up but then decided against that approach since I didn’t know how it would affect any potential muscle loss at the same time.

I’ll finish up with the supplements and then probably take a hot bath before bedtime to help relax me and get me ready for another workday tomorrow. Pleased with results thus far.

Measurements at end of week 1 (mind you, this includes missing workouts on two days!).
