weight train and weight gain (grrr….)

Exercise Today: walk/to from gym, 8 min warm-up cardio, lower body weight train with trainer (learned a new routine), 15 min cardio Total time: 1 hr 15 min

Weight: I logged on the Wii this morning because I had set a challenge to lose 4 lbs in 4 weeks. Not only did I not meet the challenge, I seemed to have gained a lb since Monday! So I’m at 196. Ugh. I complained to my trainer and he told me “muscle!” No way was I gonna high-five on that! I’m so sick of gaining muscle! I’m shrinking and I feel better. But let the numbers drop every now and then, huh? Seriously…  [And yes, I’m eating right.]

Soreness: Um, what part of me doesn’t hurt? Weight training and running takes a toll on my big self. *sighs* I know I’m doing the right thing. I’ll keep going.

Motivation: Basically, where I’m at now, I never dreamed I’d be at. I can “run”, weight train by myself, and eat healthy. There is no way a year ago I would have done this. I know. I had the same opportunities then as I do now. I looked back at my journal from last year. I wrote I was 192 lbs. Oh really? ‘Cuz I’m finally in clothes I’ve never worn. Clothes that have been sitting in my closet for 3 freakin’ years. And that’s why weight doesn’t matter too too much.
