shall we have a work-out update? it's been a while.ok, so i was steadily at 119 and then i started going to these early morning workout classes. cardio blast on monday and wednesday, power pump on tuesday and thursday, yoga/pilates fusion on friday, and then i run 3 miles and do some abs on saturday. i started this the beginning of september and i am really enjoying it.
the scale is just not on my side though... i have been weighing 121ish -
not 119- at night
(which can put me in a bad mood when i wake up at 5:40 to work out in the morning). my clothes aren't getting tighter and i feel like i am eating the same,
except for the pigging out that happened my birthday weekend. so i don't know what's going on.
where i am now:- 121 lbs :(
- 26.5" waist
- 35.5" hips
after a couple of days of frustration, this is what i am doing about it...-i had jeremy
hide the scale- he was threatening to do it for a while anyways. weighing myself twice a day was just too much- now i will aim for once a month, if jeremy will allow the scale out every once in a while.
-i am writing down the things i eat; i'm keeping a
food diary. i have never done this before, but i am on day 2 and it is already helping me eat a little less candy, cookies, and flat out junk food. i just write down everything i eat right in my planner. i plan to only do this for a week or so to kind of wake me up to how much i eat.
-i hopped on over to
this site to get ideas for
healthy snacks and to also reassure me that
weightlifting is worth it to do... which i am hoping is the reason i'm gaining.
what should i do? any advice? more running, less lifting? add more cardio?
any exercise gurus out there?
