Not too busy for a Monday. A little site after my long run yesterday I found time to get a 4 mile walk in at Cook park here in Denver. My new balance pedometer showed I got 8800 paces in before work called me to an outage. 2.5 feet per pace.
Later I got to the gym for the first time in a couple weeks. Walked for 30 mins on a sharp incline and then rode the recumbent bike for 4.5 miles. Great day of a slow burn.
At the gym I did weigh myself. Granted it was a late day weigh in instead of my normal first thing in the morning. I weighed in at a light 242 lbs. While the number has not changed since my last weigh in by much I had to remind myself that I was drinking several ounces of water while working out in the evening and throughout the day. I would say that I feel like I'm back in the 230's. My clothes fit like that too. So I would put that as ~20lbs lost in ~ 60 days.
That is half what I lost last time in the same period. I feel that this is due to several factors, the biggest being that my muscle soreness this time reminds me that I am building lean muscle. The scale is not going to change too much if I am doing this right and can say I am happy with the results.
