Day Twenty Five September 9th 2010, Thursday

Cardio Recovery...Recovery?! Psssssh, today I pushed myself even harder because I was still annoyed that I couldn't finish yesterdays workout and I knew today would be minimal. Well, my legs are shaking! I love when that happens! I'm almost through week 4!!! Then it's a week of recovery and then I get to hit it even harder, I have to admit I'm SCARED! But fear is a great motivator!! Gonna go shower and drink my DELISH shakeology breakfast...I really look forward to that every morning. My nails are getting so long that I have to cut them weekly, normally they take forever to grow, and they are growing in much stronger than before! I love the changes in my body...I treated myself to a lil clothes shopping yesterday and got some cute blouses. No jeans yet until the workout is over and I'm on to the next.

Speaking of that, I am debating on what I will do next, not sure if I'll try p90x or go with something else because I don't have a chin up bar for p90 right now, I'll let you know what I decide, I have 5 weeks to do so...WOW 5 weeks is all I have left, I remember day 1 as if I did it yesterday, and I am almost half way through now!!

DIG DEEPER, YOU are the only thing getting in your way!!

Day twenty four September 8th 2010, Wednesday

Plyo metric cardio circuit

I woke up with a migraine! I tried to push through the workout but I couldn't...I tried though I'll give myself credit for that, I did try hard! But each time my foot landed my head pounded. The meds they gave me for this have side affect's I am not willing to endure so I have to just sit in the dark and wait for this to go away. Blah! I'm so mad! I worked up a lil bit of a sweat though so I feel a LIL OK about that but again to me it was not enough. I MUST listen to my body! As should you, ALWAYS do not push past more than you can handle because you have no one to prove anything to, especially if you are doing this for yourself. I am doing this for me so ME is a lil upset but ME will get over it. Tomorrow I will push play and I will dig even deeper!!!

3 days left till my #% birthday!!

Day twenty three September 7th 2010

Cardio Power and resistance! I missed yesterdays workout...I was mad, but I'm over it, it happens, life sometimes get's in the way. But today I picked back up where I left off, reluctantly, but I did it, and I'm glad I did, the boost of energy I get is well worth the workout! Life is still happening around me...my friend leaves today back to NY, my cousin is at this very moment in the hospital about to birth her first child and My birthday is on it's way!!!!!!!!!! Life is good, God is good. And I have a fit test coming up next week, I am super excited to see where I'm at cause all weekend I had pants on that I kept having to pull up and I sure did NOT mind! YES!!!

Dig deeper my lovelies!! You can do it!!!!

P.S. My breakfast was DELISH (shakeology) was yours?

Day twenty September fourth 2010, Saturday

AHHHHHH!...Plyometric Cardio Circuit...dripping wet...speechless from panting...it's been 3 weeks almost 4 and I am still being challenged on a daily basis. I'm happy, that's all I can really say...I wake up early with no prob now, I'm not as cranky, I am satisfied as far as food goes, I am thrilled to wear tank tops now and shorts whereas before it was the last thing I'd pick from my closet. My confidence is shooting up as well. Closer and closer to my goal and I couldn't be happier!

Friend in town, off to go hang...have a great weekend everyone!!!!!

Day nineteen September 3rd 2010, Friday

TGIF!!!!!!

My birthday wish list item:

http://store.sixpackbags.com/cart.php

How cool is that!? No more of "I didn't have time to pack a lunch"..."I was running late so I got a donut".

OK now down to the nitty gritty...I caved and weighed myself yesterday. I have not weighed in since I started my workout because I am a habitual weigher and all I do is depress myself, and to be honest it's really all about the inches not the weight, but still I'm a curious person so I weighed in..............................and to my surprise............................I have lost 10 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 weeks of Insanity has done this to and for me! WEPA! Hard work DOES pay off people...If I did it you sure can! PLEASE let me know how I can help you!!:

Today was Cardio Power and Resistance! I love that even after 3 weeks I am still challenged and wake up sore, it is thee best pain! Like I've said before it burns so good! I have yet another friend in town to help me celebrate my birthday month and I am excited, picking her up in an hour or so, but I promise not to miss ONE workout! I do NOT like to break promises so I'm doing this, there is no excuse to be real. All I have to do is wake up earlier than everyone get my 40 minutes worth and viola workout done, shower down, and entertainment the rest of the day!!

Have a great weekend people!!! Think twice before putting that fork full of cake in your mouth!

TGIF!!!!!!

Day Eighteen September 2nd 2010, Thursday

RECOVERY DAY!!! Today I am a lil saddened by the fact that I didn't get to sweat as much as yesterday. I never thought I'd feel that way, but I do and I love it! Happy happy joy joy...OK enough of that!

I LOVE shakeology I have to say! I'm regular now (yes I just announced that to the world wide wweb), my nails r growing faster and stronger which is a big deal for me because I have brittle nails. I am satisfied after my shake and am not hungry till about 2-3 hours later which is in time for a snack. I feel so good, I have loads of energy and I actually say GOOD morning now...(I'm grumpy in the am and so I tend to stick to "mornin" while leaving off the "good" cause to me it wasn't good to be up so early [I am a night owl thru and thru]) Now I'm on this whole Carpe Diem kick!! Oh and a DIG DEEPER kick...I have to record my son speaking one day cause yesterday he said "My legs hurt from working with Shaun T" (He's 2yrs old mind you) and today he said "DIG DEEPER", I love it!!! I'm loving life right now. I'm on a natural high everyday!!!

You know what I'm gonna say next right? DIG DEEPER!!! And in the words of Shaun T "YOU CAN FRIGGIN DO IT!!!!!!!!"

Day Seventeen September 1st 2010, Wednesday

Pure Cardio & Cardio Abs today! Feel great!!! Today I was so excited because sweat dripped down my eye!! It's the lil things in life that delight me, I'm easy to please :-) my youngest daughter thought I was nuts cause I was saying "YES!!!! The sweat is burning my eyes!" It means that I am working real hard and finally my efforts have paid off and the fat is melting off! Pure Cardio is no joke!!! Even Shaun T says he's nervous in it before we begin! It also means I drink more water and that shakeology is kicking in, because I am NOT a fan of water, I'm not afraid to admit that. I can't stand it so I drink Crystal Light...BUT while working out my body craves it so bad and I don't mind because I am working hard and become so thirsty. I look forward to recovery tomorrow! PRESS PLAY daily and DIG DEEPER!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!! YOU CAN!!
