Day 319: A Good Month for the Gym

This entry is a little late, but it is because I was so busy....at the gym! I emptied the jar and found $15 waiting for me! I am very impressed! That means I went half the days in June. I've started to become almost addicted to going to the gym, but in a good way. There is a class almost every night during the week that I love, so I attend every week. I have not lost any weight, but I have lost a lot of inches. I can tell my clothes fit a lot looser. I figure the weight will come eventually, right now I'm just trying to stay in shape. I notice that I don't get as winded by exercise as I used to, and that I can go up two flights of stairs everyday at work without getting winded. It's small, but it is a step in the right direction. I tell people my weight and they don't believe me, so I must have put on a lot of muscle or something. I'm definitely losing my stomach "pooch." In the pictures below I am the same weight, but they are taken almost exactly a year apart. The top one was taken June 21, 2014. The bottom one was taken June 16, 2013. There's not much of a difference, but it's a good reference because I am wearing the exact same shirt. This goes to show that there's more to fitness than just losing pounds.
