The first week of May Greg and I are heading down into the Grand Canyon for a week long backpacking trip. I'm VERY excited about it, and though I'm not overweight, I'm also not incredibly fit, so I've been working on that to prepare for this summer.
Over the past 4 weeks, I've been running, lifting weights, eating healthy, and counting the calories. Rather than start Jan 1st with an unattainable New Years resolution - I started more towards mid-January with a slow beginning that has been picking up speed ever since. I feel healthy, vibrant, and quite victorious as it's steadily becoming habit rather than obligation.
And while I've lost nearly 3 inches off my waist - I've also gained 4 lbs.
And stop with that 'muscle weight' talk. I've heard it before and let's just be honest with each other. As I'm not training for the weight-lifting championships and I'm not drinking muscle builder, 4 lbs is a bit excessive.
But, there's still the issue that I lost 3 inches off my waist.
I have no idea where this fat is deciding to travel to - hopefully here in a few more weeks it will have no choice but to shrink down. Until then - salads ahoy!
