Okay, this was me in December, 2014...

Glen, I hope your instructions work because it doesn't look like much. :)

Okay,

I have before and after pictures, but I cannot figure out how this silly site will let me post them. Help!

This week, I had a body composition report done at the gym. It looked beautiful, with everything--muscle mass, BMI, percentage of body fat--all right where I want them to be. The computer even suggested that I gain one pound of fat!

I hung it up on the refrigerator like I had gotten an A+! :)

A few weeks ago, I lowered my goal weight by 5 pounds because I thought that would help me with maintenance. I have not really worked at losing. I have continued to exercise--in fact, I have started a new world of free weights and that is challenging. I have been eating fairly well--keeping my calories in line, but not always choosing the healthiest foods. I am no longer sure that I need to go down 5 more (or 6.2, if you want to get technical :) ). I feel great. I feel strong. I feel healthy. I am going to roll with that for a while and see where it takes me.

We had house guests this week. I didn't do too badly, I thought, but several restaurant meals and much wine, combined with being out of my normal exercise routine adds up. Had a great time with my brother and his crew, though... totally worth some hard work this week.

I did not get enough sleep last night. There must have been a critter outside because my dog was going crazy. Last time I let him out at night when he was acting that way, he got sprayed by a skunk, so I had to just live with it during the wee hours. Poor, frustrated pup!

I had no motivation to go to the gym today, but I came home and worked at cleaning up the garage. We are surprisingly close to being able to park a car in there! That is my goal because we bring our new Tesla home on Monday.

I did my first workout on the free weights at the gym yesterday. Everything went well, although I can certainly feel that I am working my muscles a little differently! I did get to meet on of the chatty guys that I had sort of been avoiding at the gym. I managed to do my workout while he talked to me, although it does make counting reps a little challenging. He told me that his idea of the perfect workout if 45 minutes of cardio, 45 minutes of resistance training & 45 minutes of socializing. Who has that sort of time?!

I had better to get back to work. If I sit still too long, I am going to drift off to sleep.
