First Week Done!!!

I completed the first week of Insanity. I lost 2 pounds which I am happy with. I've been this same weight for a while now. So it feels good to be 2 pounds lighter. Seeing results makes me work harder so I can see even more. That's 2 pounds closer to my overall goal. Now I have to keep my food consumption in check. I do a lot better then I used to to but there is always room for improvement. I started on week 2 yesterday. So we will see what happens at the end of this week.

Insanity!!!

So I've recently started doing Shaun T's "Insanity" DVDs. Insanity is a perfect title for it. These workouts are hard. Really hard for anyone that's really overweight like me. But I am giving it my all and doing them in spite of. None of the people in the video represents "people like me". They are all slim or muscular. That's not saying that they are in shape but none of them have a lot of excess weight on them. Hmm, I wonder how much "healthier" I am going to look when I'm done with this program in 60 days? We will see. I am still going to go to the gym in addition to doing the "insanity" workouts. I can't wait to see my results.

Update

It has been brought to my attention that I haven't written anything lately about my journey to become a healthier me. So here I am. I have lost thirty-six pounds so far. Lately I haven't lost any weight but I have lost inches. As long as I am seeing any type of results, I am satisfied. I reached one of my goals, which was to participate in the Shamrock Marathon Towne Bank 8K. I gave myself one hour and forty-five minutes to finish the five miles. I did it one hour and nineteen minutes without fainting. LOL. I am so proud of myself. So my next big goal is to participate in the Wicked 10K in October without passing out. Of course I have small goals that I have set for myself until that caomes around. But I don't need to tell any of those. I'll announce them when I surpass them. Love and light. }{

One of Those Days

So I've been doing good with exercising regularly. But today I am having a "fat" moment. I know that it's going to take some time to get this weight off of me but I am not feeling it at the moment. I need some miracle cream to rub on mt stomach and thighs to melt away this fat. I know that's impossible. I'm just venting. I did zumba today which was fun and I sat in the steam room. It's just one of those days well I just fell super fat no matter what is going on.

I'm still in it!!

Yes, I am still exercising. I have lost 31 pounds so far. I haven't gotten off track as much as I used too. Every now and then I don't feel like doing anything. So I make sure that I do some type of exercise when I feel that way. I had to get some more micro braids because all of that straightening my hair after exercising was too much. And it was messing up my hair. I figured by this time next year I'll look like a healthier me. I can't wait to see the result of my hard work and determination. I already can see a difference and I love it!!

I Am Still Working It Off

I know I haven't written anything in a while. But I am still doing good with my workouts and eating habits. I haven't gotten off track and I am going to make sure that I don't. I have lost 26 pounds so far and I'm loving it. I got my curves back. :) I still have a lot more weight to lose. But i like the results that I am seeing from my lifestyle change. Because that's what it is. A lifestyle change. So I'm going to keep monitoring what I eat and keep working out.

I'm Loving It!

I have been exercising at least six days a week since I last updated my blog. It's easier to keep it up as long as I remember why I am taking this weight loss journey. And if you don't know, I'll tell you. I might be a healthy woman now, but if I don't change some things in my life that might change. But anyway, I lost twelve pounds so far and look forward to losing more. I can tell that I am becoming healthier just by the things that I can do that I couldn't do before or had problems doing. I am loving the shape that my body is taking. It's amazing what exercise and eating right can do for you. So I'm setting small goals that I can accomplish while I'm on my way to reaching my big goal.
