You are leaving! I am staying! I am taking over this body, you are NOT in control anymore!
Suzana and I did measurements today and I am down across the board, with one exception.... my thighs are up 2 inches! I think this is because I do sooo much lower body cardio (well, the legs ARE your powerhouse in terms of muscles) I am overall happy that inches are coming off since the last time we did measurements (JUNE!) My weight is down overall. Body fat is down to 33%. AWESOME!!!! I told ya, I am in control now! :) The one thing that is kind of discouraging is that my lean muscle mass is down to about 115 lbs. This is down 10 lbs from the last time we did measurements. Suzana was not really thrilled about this, but said that is was going to happen at some point. I wonder, really, if this is because of the long break I took from weights this summer. After all, I started coming home and running to avoid the gym/get out in the sun... I think that at least part of the muscle loss may be due to that. (bummer, because muscles burn more calories)
For the immediate future....
1. I got this beat! I want this weight off and I am going to make those last pounds go away and stay away! I own this body now!
2. I am pondering a real extreme diet change, but I hate to mess with a system that is working! I still have to think about it and see what I can do to make things better before I jump in with both feet into something that might make me more prone to binging. Two things I know I can change: Stop snacking on candy at work!!! and cutting out the ETOH except for Thursdays.... Sigh, I will miss the beer and wine!
3. I am soooo much better off than where I was a year ago! I love my body more now that I did last year and feel like I can do so much more with myself!
Life is good!!!
