LtBW Progress! #3

So it's been awhile since posting anything new, but I've been meaning to type this up for awhile now. As of right now I am 20 lbs. down from when I started ACTUALLY keeping track of my weight loss, which was the beginning of December. The best thing is that there are no real tricks besides what everyone always tells you:: lots of water, correct portions, small HEALTHY snacks, and exercise. [:

Now, I've been stuck at this 20 lbs loss for about a month now, which is a little disheartening, but really it's because my husband and I have been doing strength routines at the gym to tone my arms. I started out not being able to bench the bar [45 lbs] to now adding on 10 lb. weights to both sides [65 total!]. I'm proud to share that I have muscles in my arms that you can actually FEEL and SEE [although not like a completely ripped person, you know?], and my arms have less fat. [:

If you're curious to hear my workout routine, I'll share a little bit with you. I get on the treadmill or elliptical [recently finding out that I work harder on the elliptical because I don't like to slow down, and I control my speed] and work for at least one mile, aiming for two. Sometimes I put a time preference in it from 15-25 minutes. It honestly isn't going to hurt you to be on there longer, I just have two babies at home I want to get back to. [Don't worry, there's a sitter!] After my cardio I head to the weights. My husband has a nice schedule worked out...
Monday: Chest and Triceps
Tuesday: Back
Wednesday: Shoulders
Thursday: Biceps and Forearms
Friday: Legs
He breaks on Saturday and Sunday, where I usually polish up all of the groups just to get that good feeling. After the strength routine I work my abs quickly, and head home.

Anyway, that's my quick update for my baby weight loss! [: I'm happy with my loss, but hopefully I can lose another 20-30 lbs before my birthday, 6 more months!
