60 Day progress pictures

May 24, 2007 By: Vilma Perez Category: Civilian Fitness, Pictures, Stats & Measurements 9 Comments →


Here they are… I only had the courage to put up my covered up pictures. :?

PLEASE be gentle.


Create Your Own

I do have the sports bra & swimsuit bottom pictures, but I wasn’t quite ready to put those up just yet. Also note that the before picture was taken 15 days into my program where I weighed 201 pounds, and was at 36% Body Fat.

My heaviest ever was 212 pounds at 43.5% body fat back on February 06. That’s an 11 pound, 7.5% body fat difference that is not reflected in my 1st pictures.

Oh, how I wish that I would of taken pictures at the very very beginning… :( Unfortunately I didn’t, so these 15 day “BEFORE” pics will have to do.

Here are some stats to compare:

So… there it is. Not much of a difference again for this week. Weird how you can go down on scale weight yet stay the same in body fat & basically all measurements. The “weight-loss” might of been water weight or maybe even lean muscle… :?

I was feeling a bit discouraged so I included the stats where I was at my heaviest ever. Man, have I made some progress! :D Seeing the comparisons really helped me feel better about what I have accomplished till now.

====================

Sunday (Day 56): My 1 year wedding anniversary! :-)

Decided to make up for not being able to workout yesterday. I got up early in the morning (6 am) and started my day off by walking 3.17 miles in about 45-50 minutes. My neighborhood has lots of hills, so I LOVED it! Clap

Here is my run:

http://www.mapmyrun.com/walk/united-states/tx/el-paso/419380790

And the rest of my stats:

  • 3 hours of sleep (** not what you think!!!) :D
  • Exercise for the day- walked 3.17 miles
    • TOTAL time: 50 minutes
    • TOTAL calories burned: 400
  • Steps walked -10,991 steps
  • Water - 5 (32 oz bottles) = 160 oz.
  • Eating - NOT good (in the evening-ate CiCi’s pizza - ugghhh!!!)

** about those 3 hours of sleep. Hubby and I went to bed around 01:00 am or so and got abruptly woken up by a LOUD knock on our door around 4:00 pm. It was our next door neighbor asking for help because her husband had beaten her. :-( We let her in, called the cops and by the time it was all over, it was about 5:30 or so, I just couldn’t get back to sleep.
