Well, it has been a month since I posted the 1st blog Tired of being fluffy and I figured it was time for an update. We have made great steps both on ability and weight loss.

 

We have both moved from our 30min 1.25 mile treadmill work out to 45min 2.5 mile most of the time. My wife has started using the elliptical as well and is increasing her speed as she gets more comfortable. I have managed to get to 3.1mi in 30 min on the elliptical. We have also been working on our mile speed as a bench mark and she has managed to improve from 24min mile to just under 21min. I have gotten from just under 22 min to 18 min.

 

As for weight loss she has now lost a total of 25lbs and has gone down 1-2 sizes depending on the clothes. I am down 34lbs to 376lbs as of this morning and 42%BF. I have gone from having my size 50 jeans fitting just right to wearing 48's and those being loose. I can just fit in my old 46's, but they are still a hair tight. I should be able to move into them and a few weeks. One of the happiest things clothes wise is I can now finally wear my 3x shirts with out my huge gut causing them to pull out after being tucked in. Now I can wear one all day and almost never have to fix it. :D

 

Well that's enough for this month. I'll have another update in April. Till then we're gonna keep working, hopefully losing another 10/20 before or next trip to "The Grove" in May or early June.

Just wanted to say you inspired me!!! I have started hitting the treadmill doing four miles in an hour (speed walking- I can't run, I smoke too much:nono: I know). It's rough right now, but I have been doing it for a few days now, and already feel better about myself!!! Thank you so much for putting this out there!

I'm glad my posting this has helped you. Sounds like you are off to a real good start. I should have another update on us in a week or 2. Keep up the good work.

I just wish I could get Jon to join me! He has the abilty to put his type 2 diabetes into remission, but he would have to exercise, and unfortunately, sexercise isn't enough... lol He used to love playing tennis with me, but I can't seem to get him interested in anything physical(excluding of course, sex)!

I would like to follow you two through this. Jon's 20th reunion is in October, and I want to look amazing... I know I will be the youngest spouse there... Being as how I turned 5 immediately following his graduation.... lol ;)
