I've been toying with the trainer modules on the treadmill doing 2-5. They're each a 30 minute workout mostly uphill walks. But #3 and #5 have some quick runs in them and I had to slow them down a little in spots. To get my calorie burn up to 450-500 I've run usually about a mile after the trainer module is done. Day 6 I ended up walking/running 4 miles in about 45 minutes burning 600 calories.
I don't think at my weekly weigh in tomorrow morning I'll have lost much weight, it was just 2 pounds this morning. But, I think I've started to build a little muscle that can burn some fat a little better. Weeks 2 and 3 should see better weight loss than this week. But, 2 pounds a week will get me pretty close to my goal of 200 by Memorial day. I just need one pretty good week of weight loss to get me there and 2 or 3 pounds every other week.
Best of all, though, I don't have much pain during the day and I actually feel better overall. Some of the beer belly might be shifting into other parts of the body or getting burned off entirely. Who knows, but this was a pretty successful week
