50 pound challenge (week 11)

If you voted for Craig to win, you seem to be in pretty good shape. Remember, the poll was vote for who you think will be the FIRST to drop 50 lbs.

I’m lagging behind, but I remain as determined as ever. I’ve begin lifting weights (at least three days a week). The weight training has been very good for me. I meet with a trainer once a week and she kicks my butt. I never expected to say this but…I actually kinda like it. I feel really good after lifting.

I continue to get my cardio by playing hoops twice a week and hopping on the elliptical machine in between. I’ve come a long way both strength-wise and cardio-wise…evidenced by playing 90 minutes of full-court hoops yesterday and not tiring much at all).

Anyway, here’s this week’s update:

Craig: –31 lbs.

Me: –25 lbs.

Craig’s going to be hard to catch…but I’m not giving up. And I WILL get to 50 lbs. (even if Craig beats me to it)!
