I just completed my 4th workout using Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. I woke up this morning not sore at all...(almost)! What a difference a few days make!!
For some reason, though, the exercises were harder today than ever before. I just didn't have the will in the same way I had in the past. I felt my feet slipping while I was doing lunges. DH helped me out and braced me so I could do the lunges without falling over. I felt lazy. I found myself saying "oh I can't do that so I'll just do it half way" ...and I stopped myself. What do you mean you can't do it?! You did it yesterday and the day before?! Luckily I caught myself anId kept pushing forward. But I wonder where that hesitation came from.
I guess all that matters is that I did the exercises. I really want to get to the emotional root of the problem though. Why am I scared to lose weight? ...I guess I'll update that later when I think about it more.
I officially measured myself today so I have a starting point. I'm about 40 inches in my waist and 41 in my hips. It surprised me, since I am an hour glass shape as a whole. I hope to lose weight as soon as possible to get rid of those extra inches.
Diet: For breakfast, I'm having applesauce, one whole egg and one egg white. About 140 calories. I tend to make my first couple of meals small and close together (I'll eat a snack in about 2 hours, then lunch an hour or two after that), so that way I can have a 500 or 600 calorie dinner, plus dessert and still be around 1700 calories. It works well for me. DH has fewer meals (standard 3 meals), but more calories in each meal.
I feel a little bit of a cold or allergies or something coming on. I think I should go buy a multivitamin. The ones I had previously expired a long time ago.
Time to eat now. See you soon for more weightloss experiences!
