progress

Hellooooooooo,

Last night (Thursday) I went to Fitness center because I did not want to be in my apt doing nothing. I have been going there since monday and ran almost 7 miles and burned close to 1100 calories just running on the treadmill. So, I was kinda tired and lazy to workout four days in a row.
This is how much I ran for three days.

August 27th 194/192.5 lbs 2.92!!! miles 500!!! calories 38!!! minutes
August 28th 196/195 lbs 1.0 miles 150 calories 20 minutes
August 29th 196/194.5 lbs 2.82 miles 486 calories 37 minutes

However, I am glad I went in. I did not feel like running again. I thought I would lift weights and do few crunches and go home. But my routine always had been to go check my weight first, and then hop on a treadmill. So, I followed my routine and mounted on a treadmill for light running. But some how I changed my mind once I started running. I never stopped for 30 minutes. I was really going full steam for the first time on a treadmill. I had speed control at 7 and incline at 15 degrees. I n just 30 mintues I have burned 500 calories first time. I was ecstatic.

August 30th 195/192.5 lbs 2.82 miles 504 calories 32!!!! minutes

I have been noticing this lately. I start out really sluggish but end on a good note every time I step on the treadmill. I just don't want to step down without burning my body because it feels good after you are done. You feel that you are improving your stamina with each run. But, one thing I have to mention that I have not been really happy about is my weight remained more or less the same for the last 2 weeks. I am just hovering around 195 lbs which I have achieved around the beginning of August. I guess it is hard to lose more weight after you lose initial 10-15 pounds. And then the body is really stubborn to lose anymore because it does not like it. So, I have been putting more pressure on my body and telling it to lose more fat. This week has been the most I have worked out in my whole entire (two perfect synonyms :)) life and hopefully my body will listen.

As of last night I have weighed 195/192.5 (before/after workouts). Looking forward to losing MAS GRASA!!!!
Hasta Luego,
