Well today was the day. Almost two weeks since the holidays and I headed in for another body fat and fitness assessment. My point was that you can continue to lose weight and get through the holidays. The results were better than I expected. I am down 4 lbs since November, my body fat level is now at 17.7%, weight 178.3 and my lean muscle mass has increased about 1%. I am on track to reaching my goal of 14% body fat by my 50th Birthday in April.
Now the real work begins. How do I tweak my workouts to push the other 2% of fat out of my body. I need to do some adjustments to my diet and my workouts. My diet will need to be adjusted with more lean protein and I need to eliminate the lousy carbs from my diet. My workouts will need to include more weight training while keeping the aerobic exercises at about the same level. I may need to increase the number of workout sessions to twice a day in order to reach my goal. I will set up an appointment with the Wellness Center coaches in February to discuss the changes and see what they can recommend.
I will update my training on this blog once I figure it out.
