It was a tough workout today. Not entirely sure why, my arms just felt weak. I was able to complete everything no problem, just didn’t get quite as high on my max as I was shooting for. But I am still happy with completing, and another great thing: I lost weight! My sets today…

20, 25, 20, 20, 32 (max set, minimum of 28)

Over 100 pushups tonight, and the last day of week 4 on Thursday. Then I actually start adding sets next week. Yikes. I think I might need to start mixing in some more free weights just to keep my arms loose. But hey – this is the whole reason I am doing this, right? To get into shape!

As for my weight, I was down to 203.7 pounds! Actually under where I started on February 1st, so that is pretty awesome. Of course I don’t want to get ahead of myself (just like I don’t get down when I gain weight) but it is nice to see things starting to pay off a little bit!

February 1, 2010: 203.8 lbs.
February 8, 2010: 206.4 lbs.
February 15, 2010: 209.4 lbs.
February 22, 2010: 207.1 lbs.

Current weight: 203.7 lbs.

Difference from last week: -3.4 lbs.
Overall difference: -0.1 lbs.

So I am more or less officially one month into my program and I am feeling really good. I know I just have to keep on the horse and keep on pushing through. My diet is slowly but surely getting a little better, Kirsten and I are both doing our best to motivate each other, especially when it comes to the little things like soda and fast food. And seeing how motivated I am and how well I am doing with things has motivated her to get back into the Wii Fit as well. So that is a very positive thing as well
