Good Week

This was a very good week for me. I didn't miss a single workout and didn't mess up once on my diet. I was allowed a cheat day, and I really didn't need it. I feel like I'm really getting into the swing of things.

my stats for this week's weigh in are as follows:

Weight: 132.0 lbs
Body Fat: 23%
Water: 56.3%
Lean Body Mass: 96.4 lbs
Rating: 6
BMR: 1385
Metabolic age: 16
Bone Density: 5.2
Visceral fat: 2

I have to say I'm pretty happy with these numbers. If you look back at previous weeks, I'm down from the start of November by 4 pounds and 1% of body fat. My lean body mass says it has gone down some... which is bad...I need that to be increasing! Or at least staying the same so I can just lose fat! I think the extra cardio I'm doing should finally help. And the weightlifting this week really kicked my butt. I was sore A LOT of the time this week. So hopefully I'm pushing myself as hard as I can.

Next week's challenge is THANKSGIVING. Most people look forward to the holidays, I normally dread them because I gain every bit of 5 pounds which takes me at least three months to lose, putting my at my October weight in April.... pathetic. This year is super different because I am determined to loose weight through the holidays. I'd like to get my body fat down by another 3% by New Years... may be pushing that goal but I'm sure going to try.

So next week will be interesting... I've got to try to cook for other people as well as myself and somehow stay healthy. I don't think I'll have a problem making it to the gym. Thursday is really supposed to be a rest day on weights anyway, so I don't miss out with the gym being closed that day. I'm going to try to remain positive and motivated and hopefully report back next week with more progress!
