ok this is my first one ever. i have to work out to lose this awful weight. i am doing induction like its written in the book. no cheating at all this time. and i am gonna exercise 5x's a week. let it be three days at the gym or all five days at the gym.and i will start to jog/run three times a week and every week increase it by a day until my body gets use to it.

so todays work out consisted of
30 minutes on the stair thingy (worked my butts, yeah i have two, and thigh muscles)

30 minutes on the treadmill ( total legs)
one hour in the sauna

today i worked out on the ellipical machine for 35 minutes on a level 10 incline 4-5 working my glutes, hammies and the rest of the legs. tonight will be a three mile walk because its raining. keeping those nasty carbs under 20 grams. right now i am sitting at 12 grams that i have consumed today.

wow you are doing great...you inspired me today to make sure I got at least 30 minutes in. I did it even with my bum knee....and I feel great.

Good job on sticking 100% on plan!!

just got back from the gym.
did 30 minutes of the treadmill, level1-2, speed 3.5(jogged a little of it)
also did the leg press machine
3reps of 15 at 108 lbs
also the ab machine
3 reps of 15 at 20ish(i think) pounds.
gonna try and go for a three mile walk tonight.

today is an off day. no weights or jogging. if anything i will go for a walk. check in tomorrow boys and girls

here's my overkill for the day. god i'm sore!!!

ellipical machine:1hr. at resistance 5 for gluts
free weights:1 hr upper body
suana:1hr and should have stayed longer

today is an easy day for me. still really sore from yesterday
1-2 mile walk
and if i have any strength left i might do 30 minutes of weights to work my abs

didnt make it for the walk. was way tooo sore and the soaks in the tub felt like heaven. tomorrow is gym day. gonna give it my all. gonna do one hour on the ellipical machine and work on the abs. maybe upper body too.

got to the gym today and got the dogshit worked out of me. my hammies are paying for it.

ellipical machine 35 minutes incline 13 resistance 5
lower back machine 120 pounds 3reps of 15
leg presses 120 pounds one rep of 15, one rep of 20 one rep of 25.

thinking of maybe a walk tonight if the hammies can keep up

wow you are really doing great. good job on keeping up with the routine even when you know its going to hurt..lol




I'm currently out of town so will see ya when I get back on Tues.

thought i was gonna have the day off due to heavy rains but it let up just long enough for me to go, work out and get home in time. me thinks someone upstairs loves me.
here's the workout for today

ellipical machine 30 minutes level7 resistance 14
back extentions two reps of 15 with 120 pounds
leg press 3 reps of 120 pounds, then 2 reps of 130 pounds

next week i will start doing the inverted leg presses

ok went to the gym today to burn off those garlic mashed potatoes from yesterday.

leg presses(inclined)
6 reps of 10 with 90 pounds total
butterfly 2 reps of 15 with 15pounds(i think)
10 pushups on incline
worked the biceps on some machine 3reps of 15(dont know the weight)
feel good

i am off yesterday, today and tomorrow. still feeling the burn in my legs but its a good feeling. doing some light lifting at home. thursday i will start again

ok went for a walk tonight. it lasted an hour. not bad. just something to stretch my legs before tomorrow's workout. that will consist of an hour of weights and an hour of cardio. hope my poor body can take it from such a long break.

You're so committed! But you're spending such an awful lot of time at the gym. Have you checked out the Body For Life forum on this site? People who do BFL (or the LC version of BFL) are able to get incredible results with alternating a day of 20 min of cardio with a day of weights. Yes, that's 20 min of cardio on one day, and the next is about 45 min of resistance training. You workout 6 days a week, and take a day off. Work smarter, nor harder! You might actually be doing yourself a disservice by working out 2 hrs a day. Check it out!

I have not done this program myself, but my MOTHER DID, and went from 160# to 125#. I'm thinking of doing it myself, with a LC modification. Again, there's forums on this site that tell how people successfully followed a LC version of the pgm.
