Doesn't seem like along time to most.. But to my friend and I it was our challenge! As you all know I have been on a fitness journey.. Trying everything that relates to health and fitness to get myself into a size 10 for the first time in my life.
We met with Ian from Sarge's Fitness mid June to discuss our goals and how he can assist. June 25th we started the journey. Knowing they we would meet him this day, we started a few weeks earlier really watching our calories and getting our workouts in.
All summer we tried to get in all our work outs, including 4 with Ian and often his lovely wife! We made it through some sicknesses (I found out I have asthma that requires daily medication) and we had a few small injuries along the way.
September 13th arrived and our final weigh in and progress report was scheduled.
I stepped on the trainers scale nervously..as it is the end of the day etc.. I've lost 13 lbs on my home scale and the trainers scale shows 12.2 lbs gone!!! I can't even argue with this! A total of 6.5 inches overall gone. 3 off my thighs in total which is a HUGE feat! I also increased my push-ups by 68% from start to fatigue, sit ups up by 42% in a minutes time as well as my 3 minute cardio test showed my heart rate go from 160 down to 132....
Overall a huge change in fitness and shape!
Here is a current updated before and now picture! I'm now buying clothes in stores I could never shop in, size L in stores I barely could squeeze a XL on from and never again in a plus size store. This is amazing!
