90 Day Results

[Joy S2000]

I just wanted to post my results of 90 days on the PP. I always get find motivation in reading these posts of success.

I am a 29 year old female that started at 271lbs. This is my highest weight. I was stunned at the number when I stepped on the scale. Sad.
I have been doing the plan for 90 days and just recently joined a gym (within the last week.)

I have lost 55 lbs., went from a size 24 to an 18. When I moved to Chicago (a week before I started the plan) I couldn't walk a mile without a lot of effort; now I can walk 6 miles at a time with no problem. I can do 55 mins on the ellipitical on the interval setting. I have more energy, clear skin and a different outlook on life.

The move to Chicago and the decision to take control of my life has changed me. Why did I wait so long?

Anyway, just wanted to thank everyone for their support. I am mostly a lurker, but do find this board useful even if just for the community of people like me. Thanks

Good job, Renae! I love that you joined a gym, because I think resistance is the absolute best way to sculpt your body. Muscle will burn fat and your clothes will fit better. Please keep us posted. Do you lurk in Movers & Shakers? Shadow can help you sort out what to work on. Are you on your own or do you have a trainer?

I don't lurk over at the movers and shakers, but will take a look. I have been going to the gym five days a week. I weight train 3 days on my upper body and 2 days on my lower body. Then I do my cardio everyday. It has been working so far, but I am always up for suggestions. I plan on buying myself some personal training sessions for my Christmas present. By then I will need some new weight training ideas. We will see how it goes.
I have the advantage of being a formerly nationally ranked tennis player. I spent most of my teen years surrounded by trainers in the gym. I picked up a lot of good advice.

I will head over to the Movers and Shakers section.

Thanks.

In that case, Renae, you can come and give US advice! Actually, your routine looks a lot like mine already, but I'm very much an amateur.
