It is really crazy how our bodies work. After two weeks of only 1 pound per week I lost 7 and I only made minor adjustments in my exercise/diet routine. I guess sometimes it just has a mind of its own. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations! Very encouraging to hear such good news!

Yay! Congrats! This is definitely inspiring!

Yeah!!!!

My trainer has me start walking at 3.5 mph on the treadmill. Then he increases it about .3 every two minutes until I am jogging. I jog for a minute more every session (twice a week). I am up to 5 minutes. Then we are doing strength training. Working on everything from legs, arms, stomach and everything inbetween. I work with him for a little over an hour at a time. I have gone from using 3 lb weights to now 5-8 lb weights depending on what we are doing. I am definitely seeing results and am very happy.
