Not quite the full 10 weeks, but close enough to make an assessment.
The (almost) 10 week results appear to be as follows:
-10 inches lost
-10 pounds lost
-fat percentage down 2.5%
-"fat pounds" down from 69 pounds of fat to 61 pounds of fat (so 8 pounds of fat loss)
-muscle mass weight down about 1 pound :-(
My measurements are what they were when I weighed even less in the summer of 2008, so I must've lost too much muscle weight back then. I have to work really hard to keep that muscle on.
I am not really hungry. When I am, I eat. :-)
I am allowed cheat meals (1 a week), but I've only had about 4 in the 10 weeks. I find myself not wanting it, believe it or not.
I really miss rolls and butter, chocolate to excess, chicken-n-dumplings, and that's about it.
I can have chocolate, but not as much as I'd like to have.
Other than that, I am good with this plan.
I commit to 10 more weeks. The workouts are short, but brutal, and I hate them. The walking is not so bad. I like to walk; it's just hard to find time (and the right weather) to do it. I just despise the treadmill. The food is good. It's still hard for me to plan ahead and "nip in the bud" any interruptions, potential derailings, etc. I really do have to PLAN ahead for each and every day, thinking about where I will be, what I will eat, what exercise I will do, what items I need from the grocery store, etc. I am NOT a planner because our life here in this house is NOT ever the same from day to day, so this is the hardest part. I will have to get better. Last night, I ate a big salad at 10 pm for dinner. Everyone else ate pizza earlier, but I didn't. I think that has happened nearly every day this week. I make dinner, and everyone eats it while I watch. It is sad. But it is the way it must be.
I want to feel comfortable in my own skin. I don't want to see "rolls" on myself. I don't want my thighs to rub together when I walk so my shorts ride up (I really hate that). I want clothes to "fit" and look nice, not to tug, pull, and stretch. Is this too much to ask?
