  • 1 month in, before and after

    One month in, 13 pounds down. Before and after...although I think im flexing in the after











    [edit on 07/10/08] New pic from a week ago, not sure if there's a difference, I think I'm smaller around. Can't get rid of that lower pooch! Although it's less noticeable when I have my pants up higher



    so i had a little set-back when i got a new scale and realized i was 5-6 pounds heavier than i thought. so I thought I had been struggling through the 150's now for a couple of months finally getting down to 151...but it was lies. I'm right around 156-157 turns out. I'm ok with it thought, I've found new confidence and excitement in weight training, and I can't go by the scale anymore (muscle gains). Here's an updated pic of me from today, off to the gym.

          I think my fat naturally forms into the shape of a 6-pack ...they're not nearly as hard as they look. I think what else has helped them, is i tend to keep them flexed all day long, not even consciously...just the result of sucking in all the time for years. Plus everyone stores their weight different places, my stomach is the first to go, and my thighs and butt are the things that just wont budge...

          Not ready for pics of those yet

            oh, but to actually answer your question, I either do intervals on a treadmill (ie: walk, then jog, then walk, then run) for 45 minutes. Or I do 30 minutes on a stationary bike. Not the kind at the gym...I have my own street bike mounted on one of those things that keeps it stationary, I think its more difficult than the ones at the gym. And I do one or the other 4 days a week.

            Haven't been doing as much strength training as I'd like, but I like to use the weights at the gym for various exercises, and especially love the cable cross machine.

            Thanks for everyones kind words!
