I got the results of my bloodwork back. Everything is good except my bad cholesterol is 110. Should be 100 or less. So they recommended increasing my exercise. After telling them that I do 5-6 days a week for 30 minutes a day, they told me I should do 50+ minutes 5 days a week! Ugh!! So I'm trying to increase my exercise a bit. I'm doing 3 days of cardio, 45 minutes. Then 3 days of strength training and trying to do 20-30 minutes of cardio those days too. I don't know if I'll be able to sustain this all the time but I'm going to try. Also hoping the increase in exercise will also help kick start the weight loss again.
I have 2 months until the beach (2 months and 1 week) and I'd wanted to be below 210 for that. That would be an ambitious goal for me now, but now I'm saying maybe 215 by then. I really wish I would see some improvement in my arms by then! My arms are atill so flabby! If they weren't, I would be more comfortable wearing tank tops. Still debating using those It Works wraps just for the beach. We'll see.
