Workout update.
Down 16 lbs in 2 months, 280 down to 264. Mostly due to diet and scattered exercise.
Recently been doing 35-40 minutes of hard cardio (alternating 5 minutes hardcore running/biking, and then 5 of just normal pace) and then low weight, high-rep of alternating machines. Which's seeming to do the trick so far. About 4-5 times a week.
I changed my Diet regulations to multi-vitamin, and switching from the old-fashioned 3 square meals to 6, 200-300 calorie minimeals per day, mostly high protien. So far so good. I've had less need to eat 'til I'm full and I'm CONSTANTLY sweating, because my metabolism's constantly running. I've had these weird little mini-hungers everytime I need to east, like my body's already accustomed to the schedule, somehow... Hard part was switching from caffeine and pop to Green Tea, etc. I pass a Dunkin' Donuts on my way to and from work, so that's just... tempting so often.
I guess the big reason for this post is more of, I fit into my goal pants today. Just a skosh bit snug, but not uncomfortable.38" waisted Lucky Brands that I got from work on clearance, on impulse. I wore a pair ONCE, a while ago and I fell in love with their denim. I was completely unable to button them nor get them over my thighs when I started working out. Perfect timing too, my last pair of pants were looking a bit... hippie-ragged.
I'm going to keep going and try to get back down to 200, which was where I was at before I put on all of this weight. I've done excessive research, and It's making me feel great on my finding and experimentations so far. *fingers crossed*
