Well, here it is week 3 finished.
You can see my previous March Fitness Checkins here:
I've now done 21 consecutive days of 30 minutes of exercise.
I've biked 173 miles burned over 6000 calories, and spent 685 minutes (probably twice that, once you figure in my warmup/workout/pushups as well. (by the way, I've done 231 pushups so far!)
Despite this strong effort, I haven't lost a single pound. I haven't gained anything either, but I haven't lost.
Now, I haven't been tracking my eating with the same kind of precision, and I guess I'm eating enough to cover, but it sure doesn't feel that way.
At the same time, I definitely feel stronger, and I feel like I look stronger, slimmer, skinnier. In fact, one of our cleaning ladies said that she thought I'd lost a lot of weight. I'll take it!
On the plus side, I also in general feel stronger and more fit. I am thinking about continuing this challenge in some fashion, and maybe (when the month is up) changing it to shine some focus on my eating as well.
It did not take me a month to get heavy and lethargic, and it won't take me a month to get super fit either. But these are important steps in the right direction, I am pretty sure!
