It's been awhile since I've posted measurements, so here it goes... lots of progress since April when I started this journey. The measurements are from 1 April, 28 April and this morning.
Bust: 39 in to 37 in - 35 in (-4 inches)
Hips: 41 in to 40.5 in- 39 in (-2 inches)
Belly: 36 in to 34 in- 32 in (-4 inches)
Waist: 32 in to 30.5 in- 29 in (-3 inches)
Thighs: 25 in to 24 in- 23 in (-4 inches)
Calves: 14.5 in to 14.25- 14.5 in (no change)
TOTAL: -17 inches, -23.1 lbs (as of 26 Jun)
I'm in the "toning" phase at this point. I just started adding the "spartacus" workouts as some strength training at least 3x a week. I use 20 lb dumbbells for the workout. It consists of 10x 30sec exercises with 15 sec transition between exercises. At the end of 1 set, there is a 2 min break, then repeat 3x. There's an app available on ipad/iphone.
On days I'm feeling tired, I hold myself to doing a minimum of 30 mins walking @ 3.5 MPH at a 2.0 % grade. Mondays are now designated as my "off day". So today I will go back to my house, read a book and go to bed early... my body needs the break once a week.
I still need to clean up my eating, the more I workout/stronger I get, the more hungry I seem. I need to stop snacking on junk foods.But, I take it one day at a time. This is a marathon, not a sprint!
