So this was the first week of my RESTART. Busy week over-all, and I did not get in as many workouts as I would have wanted. But it was a positive week as a whole. I was not expecting to reinvent the same experience I had in March of 2011, but I wanted to see progress and I wanted to see consistency with positive habits and food choices.
Weight – 295 Lbs (No Change)
Chest – 50 Inches (down 1 inches
Waist – 52 inches (down 2 inches)
Hips – 45.5 inches (down 1.5 inches)
Biceps – 17.5 inches (up .5 inches)
Thighs – 28 inches (no change)
Neck – 17 inches (no change)
So, no weight loss, so why am I happy? Check the reductions on Chest, Waist and Hips. I lost 4.5 inches there and that means I am burning fat. My body fat percentage dropped meaning I built a little muscle and lost some weight. Next week I wills work in some more runs, as only a kick boxing routine covered my cardio for the week. I also had one big trip to the gym to lift meaning, I put on some beef.
This is a good start. I am proud of this start and looking forward to a solid 2nd week. I will probably have a baby this week so, um, that will be a distraction. But I am doing this for our little family, so eating healthy will be the gift I give to myself this time.
