Workout Update #15 | Pic update!

by Mike Vifquain on December 29, 2009

1000 Calories burned

That’s right, 60 minutes and exactly 1000 calories on the elliptical.  I couldn’t ask for a better cardio session.  I kind of like this middle of the day workout.  I had a lot of energy and even thought about pushing it longer.  I didn’t go to weights, I’m not sure why.  I need to get on a structured lifting schedule as well.  Anyone have suggestions on setting and sticking to a weight-training program?

Now onto the photo update I have been promising.

December 29, 2009

As you can tell, there isn’t much change at this point.  I’ve tried nit-picking and comparing, but there really isn’t a change after only 11lbs.  I hope to see more noticeable change in January once I reach my first goal of 20lbs lost.

On a side note:  I did the initial testing on the “LifeCenter” system that my gym is offering.  Everything was good, except for the weight.  It had me at 299lbs on it’s built in scale, but the scale I have used at the gym since the beginning still had me pegged right under 295 (after eating 2 meals;-) ).

Body Fat %: 30.8%

It’s a start.  lol.  I will test again tomorrow morning when I head in on an empty stomach to see how it reads.

Oh, I have noticed I’m getting a good amount of referrals from other weight-loss blogs.  If you run a blog and want to trade links, please let me know.  My goal is to share my story with as many people as possible!
