What a week…major stress, major body stuff and I have to say I turned to chocolate!  I can’t get my upper body increasing weights, but my legs are increasing steadily…woohoo!  I’ll keep chipping away at my upper body and try to focus on getting that stronger.  I have 3 weeks until round one is done.  and I’m very excited that I’ve made it this far and I’ll make it through to the end of the year easily ….even with the xmas holidays.  Chris has been a great support and she is making amazing steps in her body/fat loss and overall confidence… you can really see results…of course I can’t see my own because we’re blind to our own bodies…but I can really see a difference around my chest bone when I’m doing my bicep curls.

I just finished my 8th week of steady workouts, and I feel great! 

I’m loosing inches by the pound…but I’m not losing any pounds.  I hear this is OK because I’m replacing fat with muscle… I started at 140 lbs of lean and I estimate that I’m at 155 lbs of lean which means that I’ve lost a total of 16 lbs of fat so far!  Woohoo!  Now that feels like an accomplishment. 

The best part?  I can fit into one of my favorite dresses!  Last time I tried it on, if was so tight I couldn’t pull it over my head, I felt so sad and angry with myself.  But now I’m happy and no longer taking it out on myself!  Thanks a big bunch to my workout buddy!
