Droppin' it with Drew: The final weigh in

Hey blog friends, so today was the moment of truth...did my 90 days of work pay off? Yes it did!!! We originally set the goal to lose 8 percent body fat in 90 days, but me being the competitive person I am I wanted to go further...why not 9 percent in 90 days. Well I didn't reach 9 percent, but I did reach 8 percent!

It was always nerve racking for me to step on the scale for every weigh because I wanted to make sure I was meeting my goals, well and let's be honest after a horrifying 8 week weigh I always held my breathe stepping on the scale.

At my 4 week weigh I had lost 3 percent body fat...so it looked like I was on the right track. I said to myself, "Self you deserve that cookie, piece of cake, cheeseburger, pizza..." you get the picture. So then comes the 8 week weigh in...I had GAINED 2 percent back! OH NO!!!! I cried literally, so now I have 4 weeks to lose 8 percent body fat! It was time to buckle down...no more cheat days. I started working out 6 days a week and sometimes doing two workouts a day. It wasn't easy that's the picture I am trying to set for you!

The moment of truth, Vaughn Bethell owner of www.performanceqsa.com, put me on the scale and took all my measurements. I lost 8 percent body fat, 7 of that was in 4 weeks! My weight stayed pretty constant...but here is why...I lost 11 pounds of fat, but gained 11 pounds of lean muscle mass (meaning I am more toned)! Total inches lost....drum roll please....I lost 19.5 inches of my body!!

So this challenge it was literally a challenge, but in the end I feel successful and feel better about myself. I guess that's what it is all about being happy in the body your given, and I can tell you now I am pleased with my results. Now I would like to continue on getting healthier and keep up the sweat and tears (literally) that I put in to getting where I wanted.

Little secret for you...tonight I am going to enjoy PIZZA!!!

Thanks for all your support friends!
