Total Distance

I usually lift weights every Monday and I also weigh myslef at the gym. I have lost a total of 8 lbs in the last 6 months and I don't think I'm losing fat. I have noticed some of my shirts fitting a lot more loose these days and I am wondreing if I need to eat more. I don't mind losing the fat, but I think I'm burning muscle.

I had a nice upper body and core workout for 45 minutes. I thought about running after, but decided to give my legs a rest. I am going to get out for a long run at some point this week. I just don't know what and when yet.

Good idea on giving your legs a rest. As for losing muscle, with the level of activity you are doing I would doubt it is muscle. I mean, I've known you a long time and realistically, you don't have much to lose ("Oh no he di'in't"). 8 lbs could come from anywhere and now that you are running is probably coming from your butt and legs. Want me to post pictures of where all the weight may have come off? I've got proof that you use to be a fatty! Hahahaha. You know you love those old Uinta pictures.

Jun- Oh yes 4 years ago I was a fatty no doubt. Ha! I dropped most of the fat though between 2005-2008 and at the same time did add a lot of muscle (I have the pics to prove it but I’m not posting them ). Since I started running though over the last 6 months, I have been losing muscle and fat as well. I have pictures from last summer where my tee shirts clearly fit tighter around my arms and chest and I can tell I am thinner all over. I am fine losing the fat, but I just don’t want to be losing anymore muscle.
