So Proud of Myself

I’m super proud of myself. Why you may ask? I’m down 5.5lbs!!! YAY!!! I’ve really been watching how much I’ve been eating. For the past week I’ve done great at getting in a workout each day. Some days it’s not much and others I bust my butt. I’ve decided that I’m not going to post my weight, but, rather, post my weight loss each week. I'm still in shock that I lost a whole 5 lbs. The picture of the fat I posted a while back; I lost that much!!!

DH has been working out with me as well. A few days ago, we bought a bench for free weights, a power tower (for dips, pull ups and AB exercises), and AB bench. It feels great adding in some strength training to my workouts. We try to workout together. It’s great having someone go through it right then and there with you.

We also took out measurements and weights yesterday. Every Sunday we’ll take them and see how we’re doing. I’m hoping to be down another 5 lbs next week. I would be over the moon if I were down to my goal weight by August. I’ve just got to keep up this motivation.

I am pretty sore still, but it's a good sore. I definitely can feel some muscles I don’t normally use. Yesterday, I was really sore. Every time I moved I could feel ALL my muscles in my mid-section, my arms, deltoids, back and thighs. I can wait to lose some of this blubber on my mid-sections and have a small trimmed waist.

I’m off to eat some breakfast, and see about taking the kidlets to the park for a bit of fun.
