Total Gym Thursday once again. Today I decided to take the plunge. After 15 minutes on level 5 for legs, I went for level 3 on the arms.
Level 3 8/12/21
I immediately felt a huge difference in everything arm exercise related. I feel it was the right time, though. I’ve been nursing/ half gliding through level 2 for too long.
I only got 10 pull ups in! Only somewhere around 6 minutes of total arm exercise was done when my level two was at 10-14 minutes.
The supplement I’ve been on the past 3 weeks or so definitely doesn’t aid my sleep any. So many report they have better sleep on it. I was sleeping better before it. The biggest positive I’ve seen so far is more energy. It’s just my brain won’t shut off that energy at bedtime. Hopefully, my body will adjust.
Had I mentioned we have three chickens in the house currently? I don’t recall doing so. Two of them are Silky chickens and one a Dark Brahma. At least one of the Silkies is a little rooster and decided to truly let us know that this morning to boot. Bright and early, he crowed about 30 times. He will be moving out soon.
I am so relieved to be done with the mini challenges. They just seem so rushed and encourage daily weigh ins which don’t typically aid most my size or most in general.
I figured you may be interested in seeing my weigh out picture. My legs are what I see the biggest change in.
5/22/21 330lbs. 7/5/21 314.4lbs 8/9/21 301.6lbs
I mistaken posted the May picture as July picture on a compare I did elsewhere. Ah well. This will always be as accurate as possible.
So yesterday fasted and went for a 1 mile walk in the heat. I sweat a fair amount. I stepped on the scale this morn and I’m up 2lbs. Water weight is a jerk of course. I have to have at least 4lbs or more on me currently.
My back is achy and my left knee looks puffy still. I have 5 days left to get down as much as I can.
8/8/21
I am at peace with however it comes out. I am going to give it my all, though.
I made lucky number 7 prototype this morning and hopefully will feel up to testing it tomorrow morn.
