Month 1 Results

So, I just finished the on-ramp last Thursday and did my first "big-boy" class yesterday, so it was time to take measurements, photos, etc. I still don't have a scale (my bad), but will weigh soon.

First of all, the emotional/physical difference I feel after 1 month is amazing. I am noticeably stronger and feel way better about myself. Even if there is not that much difference in the mirror/on the scale, MY body already feels better to me and that translates to improved body confidence. I feel good.

As for the measurements:

On August 17th, these are my measurements

Middle of Bicep: 12.5 inches (no change)

Top of Thigh: 24 inches (no change)

Belly (measured to belly button): 36 inches (-1 inch)

Calf (Widest Point): 14 inches (no change)

Chest (Under Bra Line): 34 inches (-1 inch)

Hips: 38 inches (-1 inch)

I should mention that while my biceps are no smaller, they are way firmer, and I can notice a little definition. Whoop Whoop. The adventure continues!

"Before" Photos

With the hope that my body is going to change by doing Crossfit - and I can actually already feel changes - it seems only fair to take some before pics and then compare with the after pics. I was a little slow taking these shots - it would have been better to take them at day 1. These are dated July 29, 2010. I really hope nobody is looking at this blog!!!
