Month 6 Stats

I've been busy lately, and posting to this blog has taken the backseat. I lost 2" this last month, I'm quite thrilled! I also updated my stats below. I've lost a total of 10 lbs now. Some may think that 10 pounds in 6 months is not a big deal, but the overall picture is I also lost 6% body fat and 9.5 inches around my waist, hips, thighs and chest combined. Some people lose weight faster, but I see it this way: had I not decided to change my habits and get serious about exercise 6 months ago I'd still be where I was then: unhappy about my body. I've found supplements and an exercise program that works for me, and I'm pretty happy with my results so far.

I plan to step it up a notch with the exercise plan. Not sure yet, but I'm thinking maybe a half-marathon within the next 4-5 months, and I also want to challenge myself with heavier weights on my ChaLean Extreme program. I've been using 5lb and 8lb weights for upper body and 10lb and 15lb weights for lower body, and I'm definitely feeling stronger, that I could go 8lb and 10lb for upper body and 15lb and 20lb for lower body. 

Weight: 127lb (up 0.5lb)
Body Fat: 28% (no change)
Chest: 32" (down 0.5")
Waist: 26.5" (no change)
Hips: 37.5" (down 1")
Thighs: 21.5" (down 0.5")

Cumulative total (in the last 6 months): down 10lb, 6% body fat, 9.5"

Here's to a successful seventh month! Cheers! (Raising my glass of Supreme Whey Protein)
