I know it have been forever since my last post, and for that I am sorry. Since I announced my pregnancy in May of 2012 I kept running up until 24 weeks I was running 2 miles every other day. Then the Dr. made me stop and just 10 weeks later at 32 weeks I went into premature labor. The day before Thanksgiving 2012 I delivered a baby boy 8 weeks premature he was a healthy 5 lbs 12 oz and 17 1/2 in long. His lungs were not matured so he did have to spend a grueling 13 days in the NICU. I am happy to say that he is now a Happy healthy 21 lb 1 Yr old and his Big Brother couldn't be happier to have him here.
All that said I wanted to let you all know that I am back! Back at Weight loss, back in Marathon Training and back to Posting tips, training up's and downs for you and anything else you guys want! Please feel free to Message me and let me know what you want to read about.
2014
GOALS.........OK so this Year I am all about motivation, accountability
and Honesty! Since so many of you have messaged me or told me when you
see me that You LOVE my posts about workouts and weight loss I want you
to hold me accountable this yr. I have set 2 goals this Year in
regards to fitness.
1. by Dec 31, 2014 I will lose 32 lbs.
2. Is
to complete my training and Run another 1/2 and a Full Marathon.
Actually I plan to run the whole spectrum this year. I plan to run a 5k, 10k, 1/2 & full! ( the
2nd is only if I resist and prevent any further injury's, this week I
messed up my knee but that didn't stop me from making a 5 mile run) As
for the accountability part I will be VERY HONEST & slightly EMBARRASSED about my stats.
For
Christmas I got a body scanner and here are my results: I will post new
ones weekly as I post my weight loss.
Starting body
scan results:
BMI - 29.1
Body Fat percentage: 39%
Visceral Fat ( the
dangerous one, this is belly fat, which is the one that leads to higher risk of Heart disease, high BP, Cholesterol, and many other factors) 7%( that's 2% lower then the Normal range)
Skeletal Muscle Mass:
26.8%
Goal this year is to get Fat % down & Muscle mass up! This is why I have
incorporated strength and weights to my training schedule!
I am also going to give you guys the averages for each of these so you can see truly where I fall.......
BMI: Less then 18.5 Underweight: 18.5-25 Normal; 25-30 Overweight, 30 + Obese
Body Fat %(Female 20-39)
Less then 21% Low; 21.0-32.9% Normal, 33-38.9% High; 39%+ Very High
Visceral Fat: Less then 9 % Normal; 10-14% High, 15% + very High & dangerous
Skeletal Muscle %: Less then 24.3 Low; 24.3-30.3 Normal; 30.4-35.3 High; 35.4 + Very High
(Skeletal Muscle is Good This is the only one you want to be HIGH!)
How do I plan to get the changes made. Jan 1 I walked .5 miles, Ran 3.5 Mi, & walked 1mi for a grand total of 5 Miles. I also watched what I ate. Today is Cross training for 1 hr and 45 min and tomorrow I run again. I am in training for a Marathon so Next week on top of my weight loss and scan changes I will post some of my diet and tips for my training schedule!
2014 MAKE NO EXCUSES!!!!! SET SMALL GOALS AND GO FOR THEM!!!! THE ONLY THING BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR GOALS IS YOU! THERE IS NO CHALLENGE YOU CANT OVER COME IF YOU DON'T JUST GET OUT OF YOU OWN WAY!
