I Lost 12 Pounds Doing The Sky Fit Challenge!

How about that! Down in the 180’s for the first time since….. lets call it forever.  189 to be exact.  The first thing that comes to mind is that I feel like I look better in clothes now.  I always complained of clothes not fitting well but now I see it was me who didn’t fit well in clothes.  Another thing I’m noticing is that I don’t fuss with myself as much.  Being self conscience of my body I touch my belly a lot, pull my shirt out, etc.   So that’s two positive signs and overall I’m feeling and looking better.

Week 1

Week 6

After being back in LA for a week and doing 3 solid workouts with Rob I am back on track.  I’m noticing my abs and core are feeling much stronger.  That same place I used to touch on my tummy might still have some fat on it but right below is some strong muscles.  Feels good!!  As for the cardio, that is where I’m feeling a huge difference. It is taking harder and longer runs to give a good workout and that is great for me cause one of my long term goals is to run a marathon. As for biking/spinning and swimming I’m still not doing them enough cause getting to the gym is more work than hoping on the treadmill at home.  That is about discipline for me and it is still a weak spot I can improve on.

Unfortunately, I’m going out of town again on Sunday for a week of work. The good news is I’ll be at a nice hotel with a gym and good food.  This will be a whole different challenge for me.  I’ll be with colleagues who can drink and party a lot.   I’ll be interested to see how that affects my workouts and sleeping. Will I workout on hungover days? On days with a ton of work will I still find time for the gym?   We’ll see and I will report.

As for eating, it is just so much easier when you’re home.   The routine is easier, I don’t crave as much crap food and my wife is right there to help out.  So, again, it is about discipline and I’m working at it.

So, this is life. I’m a actor and my jobs come up at the last second and I have to learn to adapt to stay in the shape I want. It’s a challenge that I’m ready for.
