Week 3 (My 21 Day Check in)
Weight 202 (down from 210) Lost 8 pounds!
Body fat 39% (down from 40%) Lost 1%
NON Scale Victories? Why, yes, I have those, too!
- I haven't had even an ounce of alcohol since I started this challenge, and I have been so focused on my health, I haven't even wanted it!
- I have been sleeping really well
- I have managed to catch myself when I'm beating myself up or being negative and I've stopped the thoughts in their tracks. (Sometimes this takes a bit, and sometimes it doesn't "stick" really well, but I'm on it!)
I'm starting phase two a week early. I am a little weird about things and I wanted to get my "months" within actual months. I know, I'm strange.
Anyway, I've made up a chart for tracking this workout that puts everything together so you can easily see your progress. This is from Jamie Eason's Live Fit Trainer on Body Building's site. I just made a few tweaks, mostly because I need to be careful of my back and I don't want two full leg days as my legs are already bulkier than I'd like. I made copies for my family members who are doing this with me so that they can keep track as well.
Last night was our first workout on Phase 2. Both my husband and my sports loving 17 year old son went to the gym with me last night, even though we went right after the Super Bowl started! That's some dedication, right there!
I had to do assisted pull ups. I needed 115 pounds of assistance! Ugh!!! BUT, that just ups my determination. I will be able to do some unassisted pull ups by the end of this 12 week challenge! I was actually sore by the time we left the gym, and was definitely feeling my lats this morning! Yay for a great workout!
Then... I'll need new goals!
Anyway, I just wanted to share my workout with you... I've been keeping up and doing well!
Don't forget our February Squat Challenge! I'm keeping up with that, too!
