Session with Adam

I did a circuit training session with Adam yesterday. 30 squwats with the 40 lb kettle bell, 1 minutes of swings with the 40 lb kettle bell, push him accross the gym with the fitness ball, crunches, alternating arm/leg lifts and slams with the medicine ball for 1 minutes. Lather, rinse, repeat. I always seem to get really winded, I am always worried that I will pass out but he makes sure that I have recovered before I move on to the next excersize. Next session with him is on Wednesday, I think I will get in a nice long walk on Saturday and then my workout with Christine of Monday night. I have stuck to tracking and eating according to plan for the last 3.5 days. It feels good to be back in a routine. I hope that my body has recovered to want to lose the weight now.

Re-commit

Hey guys,
Sorry that it has been a while. For the last few weeks I have been eating at maitenence and above to allow my body to recover from thinking it was in starvation mode. I had been dieting for so long that my body didn't want to loose anymore. As expected I gained steadily over the weeks as my body recovered, soaking up calories like a sponge. I put on more then I would have liked... a whopping 23 pounds. However in this time I have also been going to the gym, seeing my personal trainer twice a week and I suspect that 3-5 pounds of that could be muscle. I am progressively been lifting heavier weights and getting stronger. However due to the weight gain my self confidence is a bit low, my clothes are feeling tight and I am a bit depressed that I have dipped below my 100 lbs weight loss objective. Last week wasn't the best week. I had parties and many nights out so I ended this maitenence period with a bang, a 4.6 pound gain. I ate stupidly, it was just nice to eat some of the things I had been depriving myself with.... however I shoudln't have gone that crazy all at once. ANYWAYS the past is the past, no point crying over consumed calories. This week I am re-commiting to my "diet" style of eating. I am hoping that my body has now rebooted and I will be able to lose the 35 lbs I need to get to my goal. It would be nice to loose the weight by the summer. I think I need to start making some new goals.
Wish me luck,
Michelle
