Alright, Week 2 is over and the results have been tallied.

But before I get to that I wanted to say that I hope
everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that you
didn’t blow your diet too bad. As for myself, I stayed
the course and didn’t cheat one bit. I did, however,
replace my usual 8 oz of chicken with 8oz of turkey breast
for one of my meals.

But no pies, no cakes, no sweat potatoe casserole, no
stuffing…..I was hard core….and thankfully the scale
showed my hard work was worth it.

I lost another 2 pounds this week bringing my two week
total to 5.4 lbs…not bad…but not great considering when
I used to compete I would lose that in the first week.

I know, I know…I am getting older and my metabolism
is starting to slow down. Also add in that I haven’t been
“training” for many years as well. It will take some time
and some prodding to get my body to respond like it used to.

Don’t worry it will. Just as yours will. It may be tough
and it may get harder to coax our bodies into responding
to get the results we want.

However, I can promise you that if you “keep on keeping on”
through the hard times and push through the plateaus you
will achieve the body you have always dreamed.

talk to you later…..
