Down to 203.9 (3.3 pounds loss since last update), 19 more for my goal until July.

This is the first time in the last 10 years that i lose weight instead of gaining it during the Christmas holidays.

I'm eating less than before, did not touch typical Christmas sweet stuff during the holidays and controlled myself a lot in the family/friends meals, but the main reason is that i'm working out like i haven't since i was in my twenties.

My initial plan 4 weeks ago was to run/workout at home 3 times per week plus my weekly soccer game, but as the weather is so cold and i was starting to get lazy about running outside, i decided to join a Gym 3 weeks ago. Since then i'm pushing myself harder and harder.

Three days a week (M,W,F) i run for 30 minutes in the running machine at the gym and then workout with weights for 45 minutes more. Then 15 minutes of abs.

Two days a week (T,T) i practice indoor cycling for 1 hour at the Gym in a class with a trainer, and this is so far the hardest thing. After a session i just want to go back home to go to sleep early.

Then on Saturdays i rest, and on Sundays i play a soccer match.

In just three weeks i'm seeing my body changing and getting more firm and my pants are starting to fall off to the point that i can take them out without loosening the buttons, so even when i have lost only 3.3 pounds, i have gained muscle, so the fat loss could even more. People around me is starting to notice it and to ask me if i have lost weight lately.

On top of that, i feel really well, in fact a bit over excited probably, as i have not feel like this for a long time, so my motivation is sky rocketing. Now i need to keep with it.
