Tina's Post #3

As of yesterday, I weighed myself on an empty stomach in the morning. I'm embarrassed to mention my actual weight, but I was 4 pounds lighter. That's without food, so I may have probably lost about 2 pounds. 2 pounds of course isn't a lot, but I know if I keep up with it, there will be improvements. On Thursday, I worked out with different methods targeting different parts of my body. When thinking about time, I never know when to really stop when I work out. I feel like I can go on and on until I finally feel pain to give myself a rest. On average, I spend a minimum of an hour of working out with my cousin. I did sets of weight lifting in a pair of 15 pounds. This was challenging because I usually lift a pair of 10 to 12 pounds. My arms started becoming sore including my lower back. Friday was a busy day, so I had to skip Friday on working out.

Since it's the Easter Holiday weekend, things have been slowing down for me. I have a family member who recently made the move to America from Vietnam. To welcome her, my family planned on having a celebration this weekend in addition to Easter. My family's planning a BBQ today and I have been busy helping my family prep for today.

Happy Easter everyone!

  1. Tina,
    That is great news! you are inching towards your goal, and your endurance is getting better. That is smart that you are targeting different parts of your body... I have read several articles that say that it is important to vary your workouts. Two pounds may not seem like a lot, but they add up eventually! I know that Easter weekend made it hard to keep up workouts- I struggled with that as well. I also ate a lot more than I should have on more than one day. Focus more on everything this week, and I am sure you will continue to see results!
