Have been having a big think.......as i mentioned quickly on another thread ref exercise.
I was thinking do I a) just do my prescribed 30 mins of walking and carry on (hopefully) at a pretty good loss each week? or
b) carry on with my prescribed AND my extra 35-40 mins of more cardio and some resistance training. and risk losing less each work as i build muscle?
I dont want to end up a muscle freak (not that i would as im not exactly weight lifting!) but I would like to tone up my flabby legs and stomach and bingo wings.
when I lost 2 1/2 stone on ww a couple of years ago I was doing the same exercise as now and I still managed to lose and I felt pretty toned and fantastic.
So, Ive decided to (for now at least) carry on with my exercise..im really enjoying at the moment and I feel great when Ive done it. Im going to borrow a tape measure from my mum and get measuring. I am going to find it hard as Im a scale addict and WILL be disappointed if i dont lose as much as I have , BUT I will be toning up and getting fitter and healthier at the same time.
So plan is exercise Monday, tuesday, wednesday, friday and saturday, day off thursday and sunday. Will see how this goes for a couple of weeks and then see how I go from there.
Wish me luck!!!!!
