Weight Loss Over 40 Plus Daily Record.....Week 25

Weight Loss Over 40 Plus Daily Record.....Week 25

Week 25: The end of the program and graduation day. Now the real work starts. I am on my own. Yes there are support groups, but the real success will be up to me. I am watching what I put in my mouth and drinking my 128 oz of water a day. The workout program has become part of my quality of life. I hate the thought of the work, but love the benefits. You need a great nutritional supplement ( True Essentials) to maintain the grind.

  1. Spin Bike still 49 mins. but I double the resistance for a harder workout with less miles. (19 to 19.5) every other day.
  2. Gazelle is still a 30 min workout every other day.
  3. Total Gym 6-8 min which was 2 sets of 8 reps is now 2 sets of 15 for each exercise.
  4. Tai Chi for balance and flexibility.
  5. Walking 6 miles this week
  6. I added a Inversion Table to help with stretching and blood flow to my spine. Being a trucker for over 25 years has taking a told on my body.
weigh in: 243 changing up the reps and resistance, along with the inversion table for stretching has really increased the benefits of the strength training.

I hope you are doing well on your own life changing programs. If you would like to share your progress please post here or e-mail at chibmo@rock.com. I would like to share in your successes and the goals you reach. Please return next week to follow my journey. Thank you for your interest in this life changing part of my life.

Weight Loss Over 40 Plus Daily Record.....Week 23

Weight Loss Over 40 Plus Daily Record.....Week 23

Week 23: On full food for about 5 weeks, still doing the workout program, drinking my 128 oz of water a day, and keeping track of what is going into my mouth. One thing I learned about myself, I did a lot of mindless eating. Meaning I did think or care about what was going into my mouth. I now know what is going into my mouth now so the calories, fat grams, and salt intake is under control. I don't feel starved or like I am missing anything. I am eating like a gourmet and feeling good about it.

I have changed my workout program to be more challenging. So let me break it down for you.

  1. Spin Bike still 49 mins but I double the resistance for a harder workout with less miles. (17.5 to 18)
  2. Gazelle is still a 30 min workout
  3. Total Gym 6-8 min was 2 sets of 8 reps is now 2 sets of 12 for each exercise.
  4. Tai Chi for balance and flexibility.
  5. Walking 4.5 miles this week
weigh in: 246.5 not bad for still nursing a sore left knee and hip.

Thank you for traveling along with me on my life changing journey. I do pray that you are on your way to a better life too. Please return to follow my progress next week and thank you again for caring to share this with me. This Nutritional packs have help so much, please give them a try.

Weight Loss Over 40 Plus Daily Record.....Week 22

Week 22: Another full food week and one with many challenges. Believe it or not another wedding, my youngest Son ( his 2nd her first). So we stayed at a hotel, ate out every night, and party hard at the wedding. I did not miss a workout, I drink my 128 oz of water and watch what I ate ( I did have a few beers at that wedding but not to excess). Even with the bad left knee and hip I dance my ass off to offset the indulgence for the weekend.

  1. Spin Bike 49 mins (19.5-20 miles) every other day
  2. Gazelle 30 min workout other every day
  3. Total Gym 6-8 min workout 6 day workout
  4. Tai Chi
  5. Walking 5.5 miles
Weigh in: 249 pounds. not bad for the weekend I had. This week was my body analysis week. I lost 16 inches around my mid section, 91 pounds, and I have a 4% body fat excess down from 15 %. I am now reshaping my body which my wife says looks great.

For those of you that have followed my journey to this point, I hope you have started a life changing program. By all that I love this is the best thing I have every done for me. So please start today and come back to tell me of your successes. A good True Essentials nutritional packs is inportant to a healthy life.
