9 Pounds see You later!!

Okay So I just got home from the Doctor. I lost more than I thought. Turns out my scale isn't as off as I thought. I lost 9 pounds!! I was so excited when I saw that . I am 5 pounds from my first goal. I lost 4% of my BMI but I lost more lean muscle than she wanted me to so I am now having to either drink a protein shake or a egg before I work out. I lost 5% lean body mass. Turns out that working out on an empty stomach isn't good for you. I always thought that if you do it on an empty tummy your energy will come from your stored fat. But that is not the case. It pulls from your lean muscle because its easier to break down. So I learned something new today!! She said that I will get better results by eating more protein especially since I have been working out. I love this lady!! I think she is going to be one of the keys to my weight loss. She watches me close and makes sure I am not loosing the wrong kind of fat or that I am not starving my self. She even told me that I have to eat more...... HUMMMMM Never been told that before!! This seems to be working for me and I am so glad its been a real process to loose weight. Its always been a diet and I am looking at it different I am making better choices and better choices are leading me to a healthy me. I am not looking to be a super model and weigh 110 pounds. I actually would like to be about 135. I feel like that is not too skinny and a healthy weight for my body type. So will see. But as for now .... SEE YOU LATER 9 POUNDS YOU ARE NO LONGER WELCOME ON THIS BODY!!!!
