I missed a couple of workouts and had one shortened this
week. This turned out to be for the best,
as I was starting to feel a bit run down.
I felt more rested for the workouts that I did get in. I was more relaxed and focused. I got into a pretty good groove and the
exercises flowed really well. At the end
of the week I’d lost 1.4 pounds.
Like last week, I got a lot of compliments and
encouragement. I’m continuing to make
strength gains and have started introducing “forced reps” into some of my exercises.
I needed to set a goal for myself to reach for
December. I wanted to get away from the “lose
x number of pounds” model, since that doesn't seem to really be the best
measure for me. I decided to make it a
size challenge. I figure that we’ll
probably do something for New Year’s Eve, so I’ll buy myself a new pair of
pants to wear to the event. My goal will
be for that purchase to be in the smaller size that I mentioned last
month. They should not just fit, they
should fit comfortably.
I don’t plan on changing my approach. Though, with all of the upcoming holiday
parties, I’ll need to keep an eye on the refined sugars. I’m sure I’ll have some, but I don’t want to
over indulge.
Weight loss to date: 39.8 lbs.
