I know its been a while since I last posted any updates but I have a few updates to give you.  I have not given up on my goal.  I am still going strong and have been keeping it up every day.

I have a made a few modifications to my workout routine since.  I have added and removed a few exercises as well switching up the order.  Every few months I recommend doing this to help avoid getting bored with your current routine.  Also due to time constraints I have removed my cardio routine from my lunch time session and doubled my evening cardio session.  Just a slight modification but I still get the same workout.

Basketball on Friday’s is still going strong and is a good way to burn calories running up and down a court.

I have started boxing class in the evenings.  This is an intense cardio class that involves many different things such as running stairs, sit up’s, push up’s and much more.  By the end of each class you are really drenched in sweat.  At first the class was hard… but after about 3 weeks its getting much more easier and enjoyable.  For fun I took my Polar F6 watch with me to see how many calories I burned and it came up just short of 1000 kcal’s in one session.  For the last few weeks I’ve been burning more than 6000 calories a week.  But I have since cut back to 4000.

Just for the record I have passed the 50lbs lost mark and still counting.  It feels great.  Clothes fit so much better and I just feel much better in general.  Its become very obvious.
