Body For Life Week #4
Tomorrow begins my 4th week on the B4L program. I haven’t weighed myself in a while but can definately feel and see the changes. At last weigh in, I was down 76 pounds at 194 pounds down from 270 pounds. I think I lost some more but won’t be sure until I step on the scale. My 34 waist jeans and shorts are now getting too big. I need to buy another belt and this will be belt #5.
Its hard to believe that there was a point in my life where I couldn’t walk or even move without pain. It made me rethink things and made me realize how I used to take everything for granted. How lucky I am to now be able to do all of this and accomplish what I have acomplished.
I like the B4L program. It keeps me focused and is a great guideline for me to follow. I have made improvements in it and have increased the weights that I have been lifting each week as well as doing more intense cardio. I can see increased definition in my arms and chest but I still have to get my bodyfat down. Thats the key- dropping more bodyfat.
I am keeping up with my supplements faithfully and have added in BCAA’s 4 times each day. I am eating at least 200 grams protein in my diet and have reamained consistant with it. The musclemilk shakes are a big help.
I run a really busy schedule and sometimes i get so tired because my days start at 5:30 am, but something in me MAKES me want to go to the gym. It has become a regular part of my daily routine and missing the gym is like missing a day at work-so I go anyway and feel better afterwards.
I still have a way to go and am keeping my goals real. Guys my height weigh around 160-170 pounds and thats the goal that I am shooting for. To get there I need to lose 24 more pounds. My goal is to get there on or before December. When I hit the 170 pound mark then I would have lost a total of 100 pounds. I’m gonna do it.
Today was some really intense cardio. Tomorrow upper body. I cant wait to start my new week. Today was better than yesterday and tomorrow will be better then today.
Each day is a victory!
