May Challenge Results

erin6989

I started (again) trying to get healthy in September. It has been going well, I've lost 20lbs and I'm currently at my lowest adult weight with somewhere around 10-15lbs to go I think. That isn't the point of this post. The point of this post is what happened during the month of may!

During the month of May: I have been running 3x per week to prepare for half marathon training. I have been doing bootcamp style workouts 2-3x per week. I have been eating back about half of my exercise calories during the week, and pretty much all of them one day per weekend (lots of parties and cookouts).

The results: I only lost .5lbs. BUT! I gained 4lbs of lean body mass (according to Tanita scale) and my body fat percentage is now 31.1%, which according to this scale puts me in the healthy range for the first time I can ever remember! Check out the pictures! The green ones were taken at the beginning of the May challenge, and the orange ones were taken on monday!
