Week 2

Week 2:

So week 2 I had definitely noticed a difference in my appearance. My work clothes are looser (not much, but noticeable). I usually have to suck in to button my pants, and this week I was just able to button them! YAY! Its the small things really. At the gym is where I've noticed a real difference. Sean decided that it was time to add some weight onto my sets. So I went from squatting the bar (45lbs) to adding 10 lbs on each side. Yeaaaaah! ;] It may not seem like much to most people, but I will take any small victory. I also added 5lb weights to my bench press! This was the most exciting thing for me as on day 1 I could barely lift the bar, I mean literally it looked like the bar was attacking me. I feel so much more confident doing my workout when I can actually do them properly and (hopefully) look good doing it. I saw 2 girls at the gym this week who were squatting the bar and it was crooked and wobbling all over the place. After I laughed at them, I remembered that that's how I probably looked when I started. Silly. I am not as tired at the end of my workout anymore, I actually feel really good when we leave! I can tell I'm getting stronger, I just wish I was getting skinnier too! I'm not sure how much I like this "muscle weighs more than fat" idea. Here is my progress picture from week 1 to week 2. I dread taking these pictures, but this week I thought I looked, well... kind of good. Definitely not get in a bikini at a Vegas pool party good, but good.
