Is this real?
I've lost over 7 lbs since starting hip hop abs. I like the workouts and I sweat like crazy. I can feel each muscle work as I target them... It's pretty nice. I actually feel like I'm training for basketball again! I don't expect this trend of extreme pounds loss to continue, but I'll enjoy it while it lasts.
I calculated my lean body mass to see what would be a reasonable amount to lose, and it contradicts what my doctors have always said. My doctors say that for my height I should weigh around 180-190 at most. Well, after calculating my lean body mass right now, it is 182lbs. Which means if I weighed 190 at most I would have too low of a body fat %...
So, that leaves me with a choice to make: I can either lose lots of fat, muscle, and water to appease what my doctors say, or I can try to get 17-20% body fat and weigh above 200lbs (around 220)... I figure I don't really care as long as I have a flatter stomach and I can wear 34-36 size pant and a M-L shirt and I can wear a 2 piece for the first time since I was 6. Well, I'm off to work out and get dinner for the next 3 days ready (Ive found it's easier to eat healthy food if I prepare it in advance). At some point I'm going to put up the recipes that I use. These are some recipes that my stepdad used to help him lose weight-- He lost around 80 lbs and went from a size 44 to 32 in 7 months.
