Hill workouts!

Well really causeway workouts. Where I live in FL there really aren't any big hills, but there are causewys - which are really big briges over the inlets. A couple frinds walk/jog them at lunch Tuesady- Thursday and asked me to join. -t is definately spicing yup my routin! It is 2.4 miles over and back. I get a great workout, spend time with friends and get some vitamin D. At least until the heat picks up again - then will have to see about doing in the AM.

My post on Facebook - and the comments

just a little frustrated - I know I'm eating right, I'm running, I've lost about 1/2 inch off my waste - but I gained 0.6 this week. any words of encouragement?

Ask for encouragement and friends really know how to come through, even ones you didn't know were reading your status!

Diana Shores Yes, keep going!

Louanne Nering Neville Stay off the scale. Focus on how you are feeling and how clothes are fitting. Scales have a way of messing with our minds. Don't let it win. Sounds like you are doing all the right things. Keep it up!

Tara Schoepske It's muscle mass, Allie Allie!

Michelle Schmitt Tidwell Keep up the good work!!! U are gaining muscle which weighs more than fat but takes up less space than fat which is why u lost the 1/2 inch!!!

Michelle Schmitt Tidwell Forgot to say my dad always told me " go by the tail of the tape not the weight of a scale!!!". My dad body built when he was younger and some who works out may wear a size 4 in jeans and be 150 lbs and that is becuase of what I said earlier!!!

Amber Tejada Focus on how your clothes are falling off then how much weight you've lost! Whether or not you've lost 1/2 lb to 10 lbs it's still a big accomplishment!! (mix up your routine - your body adjusts quicker than you think) ;)

Chad Peterson Muscle weighs more than fat !

Melissa Jedlicka More muscle helps to burn more fat. Keep it up.

Sarah Dehne Muscles is more dense than fat. It completely pointless to JUST go by what the scale says. I always went by my measurement and the difference in how my clothes were fitting. Don't forget it's important to define muscle's too. Cardio trims the fat and lifting wights defines muscle and the more you use the muscles the more fat they will burn, even at a resting state. Good luck, hun!!!

I did it!!! I am Published
