New exercise program working
Jul 08 2009 20:38

Just finished the 1st 2 weeks of my new exercise program and lost 3.5 pounds the 1st week and 2.5 the 2nd week.  Feeling pretty good.  Was a little sore but getting better.  Checked measurements and lost 8.5 inches since 1st of May. 2 in my abs, 1.5 in waist and a whole inch in upper arms.  Swimming is really helping and the water is one of the places that my arthritus does not hurt.  Had to up my calories from trying to do 1200.  That was way too low for all the exercise.  So am getiing about 1300-1800 calories a day.  so it is definitely working  and will keep it up as long as I can....
