Operation Tanline Has Commenced
UGH!
I HATE strength training. And it's a total vanity issue. I have been comfortably between 132 and 134 all summer long. I can do cardio until my legs detach from my body and run laps by themselves.
Operation Tanline is in full swing. I have sucked it up and spent 1.5 hours at the gym 5-6 days a week. (3) 20 minute sessions of cardio with core and strength inbetween.
I feel.... fucking.fabulous.
The little problem I have with all of this is the fact that the moment I start strength training, I gain 3 pounds. 3 measely little pounds that I know has nothing to do with fat or calories, but water and muscle.
It drives me batty.
This is why I will always regret never measuring inches lost, only pounds. I will never really know exactly how much more space I have in the place where my batwings nearly lifted me into flight. I will never know how much is gone from the thighs that could have started a fire. I will reccommend to anyone trying to lose to start with measurements. I just may have to start now.
Now, if only I could sit down in a 2 piece without my stomach looking up and smiling at me. Unfortunately, it will require a visit to the surgeons office....

Haha batwings, you are hilarious! Lucky for you I am moving within Colorado, actually to the Longmont, North Denver Area. Operation Tan Line, love that name! Mind if I join?
Yes ma'am! The more the merrier!
