So do you want the good news or the bad news first?
Let's start with the good news ... I lost one more pound!!! Woohoo! Go me, go me, go me :) I was very happy that I was able to lose another pound this week. It is school vacation week and I wasn't on my regular routine. So I'm impressed I stuck to my calorie counting plan.
It is always good to start your day in a positive way ... so to find out I lost a pound was awesome!
Now for the bad news ... I gained an inch around my waist...GRRRRRR... Seriously ... WTF!!! I don't understand how I could lose weight but gain an inch in my waist. (I'm not telling the whole truth...I lost a total of 3 inches in my thigh, calf and arm. But gaining that inch in the waist was heartbreaking.) My trainer and I were so upset. He couldn't believe it. I felt like someone knocked the wind out of me. I wanted to cry, scream, and throw a tantrum in the middle of the gym. (Don't worry I didn't.) My trainer and I made a new plan!
1) Protein shake for breakfast, no carbs
2) Four day lifting routine instead of three day
3) Lifting routine would include super sets
4) Abs/Jumping Jacks in between lifting sets
5) Do cardio after lifting instead of before
6) Only eating for 12 hours of the day. If I start at 7 am...I have until 7pm to eat dinner
7) ...and NO SODA!
I'm okay with most of this new plan...except for the soda. I love my diet Coke. I don't know what I'm going to do without it. So I made a deal ... I can drink the mini cans of diet Coke Monday through Friday. I will try this first before going cold turkey on soda. Baby steps.
