Measurements by Trainer last night

Deby Posts: 333 Joined: 2002/08/05	2003/04/11, 12:01 PM Well, it has been almost 1 month (3/16 - 4/10) that I have been working out with a trainer. I LOST 7 pounds of body fat and GAINED 12 pounds of muscle! That means I gained 5 pounds, not too happy about that but I am SURE things will even out. My trainer told me I am gaining muscle like a 25 year old male! If I could only lose fat like a 25 year old male. Oh well, feel pretty good about this. I am going to be even more "honest" this month and see what kind of results I get. -------------- Gramma
