Before After

They warned me this could happen

Actually they warned me that at first I would likely gain weight when I started training.  Well I didn't gain this week, but neither did I lose, despite eating well and working out three times.  I've definitely got muscle soreness today - not pain or anything, I can just tell I really worked hard, and it actually feels rather good.  Well -- until my dog jumped up on the bed this morning and I sat up to move her -- bad idea!  My stomach muscles protested strongly, but despite that, I did sit up!  Since Wednesday I couldn't do that to save my life, I'd say I recovered better this time.

So I'm where I was last Saturday, holding steady at 115kg (253.53 lbs) and about to go walk the dogs.  I was tempted to wait until after the walk to weigh, but we've got to head out and look at a house today before lunch, so I won't have time.  We haven't gone house shopping in some time, and we wanted to start looking again this year.  Something interesting popped up, so we'll go have a look.  After that we'll want to grab lunch, so we'll leave today's weigh-in where it is, and do as the instructor told me -- don't worry about it.

Sore muscles

are muscles that are retaining water. Take your measurements now. You will notice yourself getting smaller, even though not much is likely to happen on the scale for about six weeks.
