With 20+ days under my belt so to speak it is time for another weigh-in and measure in. Here we go…
My changes aren’t nearly as dramatic as Team Bob’s fearless leader (you are so hot Kristen!) I am happy to report 0.5% loss in body fat, 1ΒΌ total inches lost and no pounds lost. I’m really disappointed with the no pounds lost but it is better than pounds gained. Could it be because I don’t quite look like this when doing the revolved side angle pose (among others) with Bob?
I can’t believe that I look as graceful as this model, not when there are rivers of sweat pouring down my shaking body as I plow on through Level 1 and or Level 2 grunting and huffing much louder than Ali Vincent does.
Or perhaps it is because it is that time of the month when my PMS/perimenopause raises it’s ugly head. Whatever the reason I am pressing on to Level 3 of Bob’s Weight Loss Yoga along with my own cardio and weight training. I am encouraged and thrilled because as the spring weather here in Central Cali gets warmer unbelievably hotter, I am finding that I am liking how my summer capris, shorts and tanks are fitting…much better than last summer. I even like how a bikini I bought three years ago fits. I might even feel brave enough to wear it poolside in public if I wasn’t afraid of blinding people. Even better, I like the fact that my work scrubs are baggy and loose enough that I am needing a size smaller. Whoo-hoo! Time to go shopping! But best of all is that I am liking that people are noticing a difference in not just the physical but the whole package. I am looking better and I am feeling better.
I bet you look awesome! I’m going to come your way when we move back! I want you to meet the girls!!!! They will love ya!
You rock! I have really been trying to pull it together lately and I just can’t seem to get completely motivated. I would love to lose 10-15 pounds…maybe I should become Jillian’s bitch.
I like the sound of losing the inches – if I could lose the inches, I wouldn’t care about the pounds! You’ve inspired me – I love the idea of a whole-package change.
It might be that your muscle growth is keeping pace with your fat loss, leaving for a net of 0 on the scale. If that’s the case, this is a great thing!
Hooray for lost body fat and inches! Get out of here, scale, we don’t need you…
And hooray for better fitting clothes…or worse fitting ones, in the case of the scrubs.
Remember – converting fat to muscle isn’t going to show a decrease on the scale initially, and after PMSing stuff, you’ll should see a nice drop.
Keep up the work, because it is working!
Awesome! Keep on trucking!!
