Man, I wish this challenge started at the beginning of the new year. With some relatively rigid portion control, calorie counting thanks to the Calorie Counter android app, and regular workouts, I was able to lose 15 pounds in the month of January.
But I'm not at my goal yet, so I'll continue through February. My per-week weight loss goal is around 3-5 pounds per week, with my ultimate weight loss to eventually be 35 pounds (so I can be back to my high school weight).
My workouts have been mostly cardio (about an hour on my road bike, though the winter chill had made that a bit tough to accomplish) mixed with some core work (Jillian Michael's Yoga Meltdown--it's awesome) and light weights. I have missed a few days, but my main goal is just to get over this damned sedentary life that I adopted as soon as I graduated from college.
Anyway, unless my Super Bowl cheat day ruined everything, I'm down 2.5 pounds in February. Hopefully with some more regular cardio (I finally got all the winter biking gear I need), that number can go up in the coming weeks. |
