Meltdown 2016 YWCA team #ItakeSelfies Down 6 pounds and Holding - TRX, Boxing , Gladiator

Here we are 2016 is off to a Bang!



I am in the last 2 weeks of the Meltdown / Y weight loss competition this year.

The first week I took off 6 pounds and have been in a holding pattern since. My trainer suggested I add a lot of protein to my diet and it seems to be adding muscle. Good and bad since I really want to lose actual weight. I have been using the Lose It app for IOS. I find it easy to use and ad free. I did try the My Fitness Pal app from Under Armour but it was more complicated to enter data and has way to many emails plus it spams me with emails.



In the last 2 weeks I plan to double up on workout so 2X a day and try to keep my calorie intake at about 2400 a day. Based on my weight just the calorie reduction should take off a pound a week.



I started out the competition doing  boxing with my daughter. It has been a lot of fun. Now I have added in Gladiator, TRX workouts with a trainer, Triathlon training and dodgeball. I hope to lose at least another 4 pounds. I can do it!


I will update the blog next week to let you know how my progress is going. Or come join me in a workout!
