I haven’t been posted as regular as required to keep a reader base, but for those of you still reading…
I paid for a personal trainer mid-way through January. I got 12 one hour sessions scheduled at twice a week for six weeks. Today was the last day of those sessions. I have to say that I have seen a difference in my arms and chest. I can feel my shoulders have developed too. I have even seen some weight loss. BUT…
I went to the BodPod testing center (its body composition – I.E. body fat verse lean muscle mass) at the end of last year and I was at 45% body fat. I weighted about 305 lbs. Two weeks ago I was tested again and I had lose over 5 lbs, but the great part was I had actually lost 13 lbs of fat and gained almost 8 lbs of muscle. I was feeling pretty good about it. BUT…
Yesterday I went to test again now that I am at the end of my personal training. I expected to see another few pounds lost and maybe even see some gain in lean muscle mass. I weighted in at 294 lbs – great! Then the body composition testing…drum roll…..
I GAINED A POUND OF FAT AND LOST 7 POUNDS OF LEAN MUSCLE MASS!!! Needless to say, I am discouraged and I am again fustrated. I will continue the fight, but I do feel like I’ve just lost a battle…
