As I move forward with my goal of climbing Mt Everest I have been exercising, and I started a special diet recommended by Tim ferris, in order to lose fat and build muscles and it is working.
After week one, I am here to report that though I have not lost any body weight, I have definitely lost inches around the waist. Normally I used to wear size 36 pants, and in May I had bought two pairs of size 38 pants because it was getting difficult to button the size 36. I haven’t got much mileage out of those size 38 pants, as shortly thereafter I got started with my workouts, walking everyday. I have been wearing the size 36 pants again for last month or so, but this morning I went to Wal-Mart and bought myself a pair of shorts to exercise in, and I was comfortably able to get into a size 34.
My push ups program is going on as scheduled and I started Week 2 today and the results were a little disappointing, but I am looking at what I needed to learn from the results and moving on. One of those lessons was, that you don’t tell yourself this is going to be “tougher than I thought”. Mental preparations are more important than the physical ones. Also I learned about the importance of following instructions to the tee, and hydrating myself adequately before starting my exercises.
