Good afternoon peeps and it sure is here in land...

The dr. appt went well.... He did bloodwork for a chem12.... he said

that at last check my cholestrol rocked... 135... he couldn't really

justify (for insurance purposes) to order all the bloodwork so that

is why he did the chem12.... I need to look up what all is included

in that.... My HDL at last check was 31 which is low and my LDL was

93 which is says was awesome... He is not concerned with my lower

number HDL because he said I am doinog everything right and with the

overall number being lower HDL would run lower... So I have to call

tomorrow afternoon to see if the results are in yet.. if not I will

have to wait until Monday as they are closed on Friday... which is

fine as these aren't pressing issues...

We talked about my loose skin/fat and he said that it was more loose

skin than fat... he said with my bodyfat % being 17 there isn't much

reason for me to have too much fat.... He said that with my age it

(most of it anyway) will most likely bounce back in time but I just

have to be patient (there is that darn word again :hyst: ) so........

One of my new goals in January is just to keep working, learn

(better) patience, and just keep going...

He asked how I was doing without taking the Wellbutrin and then the

Effexor and I told him that I was fine.... He reassured me that if I

ever thought I needed it again to call him and we would see about

getting me back on it... I don't feel right now that I need

it :dunno:

We also talked about the negativity that I have when I look in the

mirror without clothes on or when I am in the shower.... I told him

that it just sucks that the mind part of losing a lot of weight is

not really discussed.... I told him my weight loss went faster than

my brain.... He said that it does happen and he told me to look at

myself mulitple times a day and say one positive thing about my

body... Another thing he said was to take the compliments that

people give me.... It would boost my own confidence..... I am

trying!!!

So speaking of giving compliments, I received one at the gym

today... I was changing clothes after I got there and this girl

(about 20'ish) was in the same area as I was... I almost went

elsewhere to change but I didn't.... she looked at me and said, " You

know you have a kick ass body. I haven't seen muscles in legs like

that in a long time and your waist is so tiny... you don't even have

a mid section. " .... Now I didn't know this girl from adam but dang

it made me feel good.... I smiled and told her thank you.... Inside

my heart was thumping and I was even more pumped to get out there

and really push this body....

Which brings to me to my next item

I was rockin' today.... I more/less did lower body circuit and

cardio....

I did:

Leg Press-- 170-190-210-230-210lbs

Leg Extension- 40lbs

Seated Leg Curls- 30-50-70-90-70--- these suckers are killers

Seated Calf Raises-- 50-60-70-80-70-- first time trying these....

they are great!

Standing Heel Raises- 35lbs

Decline Crunches and Floor Crunches

Hip Abduction- 30-50-70-90-70

Hip Adduction- 30-50-70-90-70

Glutes- 62.5-75-87.5-100-87.5 (also major killers)

I did treadmill for cardio-- nothing too strenous- Did 23 minutes

(last 3 minutes was cool down)-- did 1.84 miles and burned 192

calories...

As long as I don't have to do stairs today I think I will be

alright Of course tomorrow morning will be a whole different

issue

Okay I guess I will shut up now....better get going!!

OH BTW I did add some melon to my lunch food.... realized I didn't

have a carb there...

Yo and Hi everyone, just wanted to check in on my day off. I'm

pretty happy with myself. We took my DHs grandmother to lunch and

being a small town cafe, there was practically nothing that wasn't

deep fried. So I had a chicken breast...and that's all, no bun, no

nothing. Then I hit the gym for an UBWO, I didn't feel like I had

much energy, probably cuz I was low on carbs! dang it! Oh well, at

least I got the workout done!

Back to work for me tomorrow then off for NYE!

I'm getting my appt w/the trainer for my BF testing & measurement

and I WILL have DH take my photos so I can do a REAL BFL challenge!

g'nite
