Keeping On...

Last night was another weigh in and this week I didn't lose anything. Of course I was discouraged, but I shouldn't be, I worked out very hard and ate very well this past week. I also have to remember that I am building muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat...remember that Gina...remember that.

After an intense workout last night and boosting up my surge training today, I am encouraged once again. I feel better over all and am very happy with my progress.

I found out today, that I need to go back on my thyroid medication, so this will be interesting to see if I start losing weight a little quicker. A slow thyroid causes such problems in our bodies. :-(

So for the moment, I am keeping on...

Changes

It has been nine weeks since starting the Biggest Loser program. I can't believe it is nine weeks already. We only go through June 4th.

This week we were asked to email some of the changes we have noticed since starting the program.

Here are some of the changes I have noticed.
So far I have lost 23 pounds and 22 inches.
I can walk up a flight of stairs without running out of breath.
I am sleeping like I did when I was a child.
I have gone down two dress sizes.
My blood pressure has lowered.
No more heartburn.
People are noticing that I am looking thinner.

I have lots more weight to lose, but with the changes that I am seeing, it is giving me the strength and will power to keep going.
