DVD 6

I did DVD 6 for the first time today. IT'S MY FAVORITE!!!!!!!!! I just powered through it and loved every move!!! Can't wait to do it again :) All is going well. Diet needs to be better these last few days. But that's because we had a cookoutandwe have left over chips. Ugh!!!! But they are gone now :). After this mornings workout it's like I'm reenergized or something. What a confidence booster :) I hope the rest of the day goes as well. Work then to plant some things in our yard tonight :) Xoxoxo

Holiday weekend review

So I was MOSTLY good over the long weekend. But I did eat a few bad things. Oh well. They were yummy :). Today is back on track as usual. Didn't get my workout in this morning so I will do it tonight for sure. Looking forward to it :).

Getting ready for the holiday weekend

We are going out of town for the holiday weekend. I have mymealsplanned and packed. That way I know what treat and will not be tempted :) Ankle felt great today! I got all of the workout 3 done and felt great! Yes I am. On week fivebut since I hurt my ankle I wanted to extend my 3 and 4 one more week. I have tomorrow off of work so I can work out, pack the cooler and truck and hopefully go for a little run or walk. :) Have a great Memorial Day weekend everyone!!!

I am still here!

Still going semi-strong. Diet is going excellant!! I have not been craving things and doing great. I did hurt my shin/ankle though. Not sure if it's a bad sprain or a stress fracture. I have still been doing my workouts just not jumping things on the right leg. I AM DOWN 8POUNDS AS OF THIS MORNING!!!! I am so excited about this :). I feel great and am looking great :) I love this body revolution!!! We had a few harried days because we had a funeral to attend out of town, my daughter broke her arm at school, then my ankle... But sticking to it :). We are going out of town for the Memorial holiday. I will pack and bring all of my own foods. That helps me not worry about what I will eat away from home. I am so inspired by the one blogger Trina?? Done with the 90 days and lost 17 lbs!! Way to go!!!

Trying to be patient

Ugh! A bit frustrated. Still. Today is my first day of week three so I did my weekly weigh in and measurements. Nothing. Actually a slight gain. I did have pita chips last night so I am wondering if I am retaining water. And my "time of the month" is coming in a few days too. Did my measurements because I knew that would give my brain a boost but there was no change there. No increase which is good though. My thighs are VERY sore today from a hard hilly bike ride yesterday so I am wondering if there is some swelling there. I know my body and how it reacts to certain things and it does swell up after vigorous activity for a day. My goal this week is to stay motivated and do the extra workouts for sure. Concentrate on my diet more too. I am not eating bad things though anyways. I do have to drive up o work out of town tomorrow Nd not back until weds morning. So I don't think I'll get a workout in in the morning. I'll do an extra workout tonight and then wednesday I can do two as well. I also need to fit in my run weds. All in all I still love the workouts and program. I wish some of the meals were a little more realistic for me. My family won't eat a lot of the foods so the grocery budget is more. I find that I will make chicken or fish and then just have a salad and not eat the potatoes or rice that they have. Thank you to those that are replying to me!!! It helps to know that this "stall" is normal and that as long as I stick with it it will all pay off in the end :) thank you thank you thank you!!!

Day 13

I had a ace this morning! I can tell that I am in much better cardiovascular shape because I ran faster than I normally do. It was a 5K here in my new hometown. I am still a bit frustrated. Doing the workouts as I should be and even adding a second one in the evenings. Still run ing too. I just think my body is like "whoa! What's going on!" And holding tight to the weight I am at. I am just telling myself that it's adjusting and to stay patient. I. An do this!! I can tell I'm getting smaller though because. See it in some of my clothes. And my wedding ring can come off if i pull now before it was too tight to try and pull off I'll do measurements tomorrow just to keep my mind at peace :) Eating is going well. I do find that I'm hungry a lot though. Probably the increase in activity.

Day 11

So I have been a bit frustrated this week. I hope someone out there can answer me a question. The first week was awesome! I lost 6.5 lbs. they have you doing two workouts a day and yes it's a killer but look at the results! Now I'm in week two and you workout once a day and eat different foods. More calories. The scale is stuck. I am still the same weight I was on my Monday weight in. #frustrated. So my question is this: Should I just keep up with the diet from week one? Add in more workouts? I am a runner so I run a few times a week already but I don't feel that does it for me. Grrr. I have been able to do 95% of the DVD workouts since the start. Now this morning doing DVD one again I can pretty much do it all without stopping. Feels good. I feel so much stronger already. I can tell a difference :). I just want results. I am not cheating. Have not had bad food at all!!! I have had some sushi but it was the healthy stuff!!! No fried no cream cheese. Just avocado cuke small amount of rice and some crab. 45 calories a roll. Again...frustrated. I'm sticking with it though. I'm loving the workouts and sweat more in that 30mins than anything I have ever done :). I still have 26.5 lbs to go!!! Wow.
