The Euphoria still lasts...in FULL force

oh, and my RealAge is 43,6 - I just turned 44!

After a strange kind of night, sort of half wake half deep sleep state, I got up at 6 AM. Whenever I know I wish to be up at an early time, it so pre occupies my mind that I am almost reluctant to sleep. I had breakfast and cycled to the Gym. I took a sauna and steambath today, after 1 hour of fitness. I can feel it in my legs as I worked on those today, abductors and adductors hips, leg press. and some 30 minutes of cardio, trying to bring my HR to 140. But this week I will stick to 130 for now.

I must say after getting through my first inhibitions, it was wonderful to experience the steambath and the sauna. Both were HOT, HOT, HOT! and the cold shower after was really MURDER. I feel good, though muscles protest, and the blister on my right foot is not a happy bunny experience.

My food intake is exemplary. Feeling good about yourself in my case means being good to myself; doing the right thing, the fun thing, the challenging thing I realise. Fitness for instance is to me EXTEREMELY challenging, it is not easy, but it IS fun.

I was reading, FINALLY, some of my fellow blogger's blogs and ~stumbled~ on Half man's 10% chart. Weight watchers teaches us that 10% loss in weight had GREAT benefits to heart, bloodpressure, and diabetes. So he made a 10 % list. He went back and figured out his 10% body weight loss marks. He took his starting weight and subtracting 10%. Then he subtracted 10% of that, and so on down to his goal weight. It gives him some more benchmarks.

I have decided to do so too, from now on you will find them on the left somewhere. And for once BELOW:

1. 381.0 lbs - 172.8 kg reached!
2. 342.9 lbs - 155.8 kg reached!
3. 308.6 lbs - 140.0 kg
4. 277.7 lbs - 126.0 kg
5. 249.9 lbs - 113.4 kg
6. 225.0 lb - 102.0 kg
7. 198.4 lbs - 90.0 kg

Congratulations on being younger than your chronological age!!!! That is something I'm aiming for by my next birthday.

Hurray for you for getting to the gym! Keep doing it so it will become a habit - something you will MISS if you don't do it. My husband is like that with exercise. He starts feeling all weird and squirmy if he hasn't had a workout of some sort for a couple of days.

Sounds like you are doing well. Pretty cool about that RealAge. Whoever gave you the idea for that 10% must be brilliant, lol.
