week 3 in review
Week 3 review
Net loss this week = 2 lbs Total loss in 3 weeks = 8.5 lbs Net inches lost this week = 1.25" Total inches lost in 3 wks = 14.6" Review: I've finally gotten a handle on the eating side of things and have gotten past that struggle stage of craving or feeling deprived of food. Things have settled in nicely. I suffered from a bad migraine last week that left me with dizzy spells and nausea for most of the week. I worked alot of over time and had to deal with alot of work stress. I did not workout at all during last week. Even my hopes of long biking sessions on the weekend did not pan out. But, with the week off, I still managed the 2lb loss. Although in the BF% calcs, it appears the loss was in the form of muscle. shrug (FWIW) Went back to the gym last night for the first time in 1.5 weeks. UGH! I had to dramatically drop the weight on the leg press and I'm feeling a bit of DOMS this afternoon. During cardio I noticed my heart rate shot up pretty high and stayed there, so I did not recover as well as I had been. Amazing what 1 week off can do. |

Generally, I'm currently at the upper range of my "comfort zone". Another 10lbs and I'll be set. |

Sounds like you're really on track now, Jayjay.
I've noticed that when I'm away from the gym my cardio fitness tends to drop off quickly -- much more so than muscle strength -- but it also returns quickly. You'll be back to normal before you know it. Chris 262/130s/130s started dieting July 2002, maintaining since June 2004 |

Glad to see you're getting back in the swing of things. I think many of us
will have an easier time when spring finally arrives and we're able to get outdoors more often. I know I certainly will find it easier to exercise. Beverly "JayJay" wrote in message ...

Beverly we've already got wonderful spring weather - I'm just waiting for the time change so I can ride in the evenings again. |

Beverly we've already got wonderful spring weather - I'm just waiting for the time change so I can ride in the evenings again. It's that time of year around here when the weather is *really* unpredictable. The sun has been shining all day and it's been snowing like crazy. No accumulation but it's still cold. Of course this month isn't too different than most. In December we had 22+ inches of snow followed by rains that caused major flooding and temperatures ranging from 60F down to -4F. I enjoyed some of your spring weather the last of February for a few daysg Beverly |

My scale is not budging though I do feel some slight changes in my body. We'll see what happened this month when I get my numbers checked on Friday. I think you did great on Week 3! Glad it's not such a struggle now -- just putting the time in helps make it easier, I think. Mary |
