First, thanks to the WF challenge over the summer, I decided to join a local fitness bootcamp and get in shape. Since July, I have lost 13 pounds and 8 total inches from my body. Last Sat. I ran my first 5K and finished 9th in my age group at 28:53.
Here is the problem. My wife is doing the same prodgram. We are doing the bootcamp an hour a day three days a week, eating according to a meal plan, keeping calories in check and drinking lots of protien shakes. We also run 3 miles two to three times a week.
The problem with my wife is that she is gaining weight and gaining inches. I have lost 5 inches around my belly. She has gained 3 inches.
For you guys that are into fitness, why cant she lose wieght? She has a heart rate monitor and she can monitor how many calories she burns. She burns around 600+ every day, either at bootcamp or running.
What sucks is, she works her butt off. She doesnt sit on the coach eating pizza complaining about how fat she is. She is working her butt off and eating sensible.
Why is this working for me, but not for her? (The bootcamp is designed for women).
