The workout was harsh today, we upped the ante this week, adding a fourth gym-day, and basically tripling our activities. I have to say though, I have lost eighteen pounds, or at least, that's what it said the last time that I checked. I usually weigh myself at 3:40 P.M. on Mondays, however, this time, I weighed myself at 7:30 P.M. on a Friday, so that doesn't necessarily tell me the amount that I weigh. Ultimately, at the very least, I should be heavier at 7:30 P.M. because I am fuller, and have filled myself up with at least half a gallon of water by that time. Whatever the case, things are going very well with the exercising thus far, I just finished my twenty-five minutes on the treadmill, and yeah, feeling good. I hope that by June or July, I will have lost a total of 35-45 pounds, which might be a little bit overzealous considering the reason I am shedding off so quickly right now is because I am a beginner, and I haven't hit my plateau yet. After I get down to my goal-size which is one-hundred and ninety pounds, (I am 6'2 and have a very broad frame, that will actually be me skinny) I'll begin trying to put on muscle.
