My Fat Loss 2-9-2012

Hey All,

So it looks like the changes I made in my ratios, by increasing my protein to 45%, dropping my carbs to 35% and dropping my fats to 25% worked and worked very well! 

A loss of 2.4lbs when I weighed in on Thursday 2/9!

In the last week though I will be honest, the temptation is starting to kick in, it’s been 8 weeks and with no treats, I will not let anything keep me from hitting my ultimate goal.  I have another 20lbs or so to go.  That’s just an estimate as I’ve done this before and know what my body looked like at 225.

I will not give into the temptation, no way, no how.   I was at my mother’s house picking up my son last week and as I was on my way out the door, now mind you this is the same day I weighed in and found out I lost 2.4lbs, she offered me an ice cream while I was walking out the door.

Ummmm yeah no I said, she’s a sweet little Italian women, who would do anything for you and well if you are familiar with little old, Italian women they feed you, until your blue in the face! Lol

I’m being extremely consistent with my meals, my workouts, my cardio which has improved greatly, I don’t feel as winded. 

You know I can’t say it enough, consistency is the key, but it doesn’t have to be boring, my workouts are different day to day, and each week.  We switch it up between the studio and the gym so different atmospheres. 

Find things that are fun to you and you’ll find that it won’t feel like work!

Until Next Time
