Most of you have known me for a long time and know that i've been in pretty decent shape my whole life. It's one of those things I never really had to focus on - it was just in my genes. Well, moving back home, buying a car, getting injured and stress eating all while turning 30 has taken it's toll on my body. I know most people look at me and think I look fine - but I wouldn't put on a bikini right now if my life depended on it. The triathlon is in 3 months - so now I have set my goal - lose 20 lbs of fat in 3 months. I lost 10 lbs in a month last year so I know it's achievable. This means doing ALL of my training (not just the race specific workouts like cycling, swimming, and running, but also yoga, core work, weight training, etc.) as well as completely cutting out the soda, chips, chocolate and starchy carbs at nighttime. My diet has been atrocious - that's the hardest part for me.
Now, I may gain muscle during this timespan which may not reduce my body weight by all 20 pounds - but I purchased one of those scales that measures body fat as well so I can keep track that way. Now that i've put it all out there for all of you to see, I have to follow through with this. Wish me luck!
