Exercise Log 8

So, it's been a while since I did an update, but I've been quite active!  I still haven't seen any scale movement, which is very frustrating.  I've been at this 3.5 months and I don't see a difference.  Other people do, but I don't, which is very discouraging.  I was hoping I would need some new pants for the coming winter!  Here it is in dates and numbers, just the basics since it's been so long.  I'm pretty excited that I've been going so consistently - now I'm ready to start seeing some results!

T Aug 30 - weight room
W Aug 31 - 40 laps in 24 minutes
R Sept 1 - weight room
F Sept 2 - mile in 45 minutes
M Sept 5 (Labor Day) - Jillian
T Sept 6 - weight room, added weight
W Sept 7 - 12 minutes on elliptical, then 40 laps in 26 minutes

M Oct 3 - mile in 44 minutes

F Oct 7 - 40 laps in 25 minutes

If you're just joining in - I swim Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.  When I go to the weight room, we do an ab workout (crunches, side crunches, bicycle crunches, etc).  Then I spent 30 minutes on the elliptical.  Machines consist of assisted chin-ups and dips, an ab machine, press machine, curl machine, and two leg machines.  I usually end up walking a few laps on the track as well.

Here's hoping you keep seeing more movement soon, since it sounds like you're kicking some major butt! I've been sticking with my early morning routine for two weeks now, and am definitely feeling more toned already.

that can be hard..but maybe changing it up and doing other things may be helpful. you are mostly likely gaining muslce which weighs more than fat..im in the same boat!
