Day Thirty Eight September 22nd 2010, Wednesday

SORE!!!!! Doesn't even begin to explain what I feel and I LOVE it!!!!! I could barely do any of the moves today but that's the definition of DIG DEEPER, and so I did, This week and the ones to come are INSANE! I thought the 1st month was but I knew nothing till now!!! He's doing moves I've never seen or heard of...and it's reaching parts of my body that I didn't know contained muscles! WHOA! I LOVE Insanity!!! I have only 3 more weeks to go, I am so happy, I remember where I started and day one was hell for me and all I could think was "UGH, DAY ONE?! I have SOOOOOOO long to go" and now I'm trying to decide which workout I'll do next because Insanity is coming to an end! :-( I'll miss Shaun T, I WONT miss Tanya! Sorry chick! I pray she isn't in any other programs I choose, but you know there is always a "Tanya" in every video. lol.

Coming to the bottom of my bag of shakeology too, can't wait for the next bag to be delivered to my door! I LOVE this stuff, THIS is made from the best stuff on earth, Snapple ain't got nuttin on Shakeology!

I just coughed and my abs screamed!!! I love the burn I really do! I'm on an insanity high!!! Now to get my Bible on and get a Jesus high!

Have a blessed day my peoples!!

Day Thirty Seven September 21st 2010, Tuesday

MAX INTERVAL PLYO...OMG, I'm wobbly, and drenched, and wobbly, and sore, and wobbly, and tired, and wobbly, and shocked, and...did I say wobbly?! WHEW!!!!!

THIS IS NO JOKE! I had right to be nervous last week. GEEZE!

Sorry I've been MIA doesn't mean I haven't been working out I've just been real busy this week taking care of some much needed quality things I had a fantastic weekend!!!!! I feel renewed in my personal life, as if God breathed air and life into it and and I am so grateful to my father!

I did my fist test and the results r as follows:

Fit test 1/Fit test 2/ Fit test 3

switch kicks: 40/80/91
Power Jacks: 26/34/30 Not sure what happened there :-(
Power Knees: 59/69/73
Power Jumps: 14/20/18 Hate these but I did it
Globe Jumps: 4/7/8 slow, but progressing none the less
Suicide Jumps: 6/6/8
Low Plank Obliques: 24/30/32

Measurements r as follows:
Day 1/Day 15/ Day 36

Arms: 11½/ 11/ 11½
Waist: 40/ 37/ 36 (Not happy but it's OK [for now])
Hips: 42/ 41/ 41
Thighs: 23½/ 22½/ 22
Chest: 38/ 38/ 38 ANNOYINGLY SO! I see a reduction in my near future, I'm just saying!
Shoulders: 40/ 39/ 39
L Calve: 13/ 13½/ 13
R Calve: 13½/ 13½/ 12½

So I think I'm hitting some sort of plateau and I'm trying not to let it discourage me! This week I think I will see a BIG diff for the next fit test because Lord God almighty this ons is KILLER! This month is no joke...so be ready, don't give up do it! DIG AS DEEP AS YOU CAN! I only have 3 weeks left!!! And I think I'm going to do a 2nd round of Insanity because...I'm insane!

Also I have to take into account that this week my husband was visiting and well we never do good together when it comes to eating. lol. We HAVE to work on that! We need to be good for each other in that area, but it gets so easy and comfortable to go out and splurge a lil, cook his fav meals etc. NO excuses though, I'm back on track, coach or not I too can lose site of the finish line, but I see it again!!! For slacking a lil I'm still doing good on the numbers!

Day Thirty One September 15th 2010, Wednesday

Rest week day 3...I woke up this morning saying "WOW my arms are SORE, I don't know why?!" Then I did the "Shoulder Burn Exercise" and remembered! WOOOOOOOO! I have to say this and I'm not really sorry to say it I do NOT like Tanya...WHO works out with a smiley face and sexy moves?! GIVE ME A BREAK, ain't NOTHING sexy about sweat dripping down all crevices girl, no matter how big your smile or how hard you sway your hips, or pucker your lips to breathe, really!?!?! Who puckers to breathe?! Must be genetics maybe her entire family breathes that way, and if so then my humble apology! But seriously you are trying to motivate not aggravate people, I keep pressing play because of the other REAL people and Shaun T, I have to say that when the camera zooms in on her I have to turn away! And I might utter a few words at her as well, but we don't have to go into detail.

Other than that...I AM HAPPY! Happy that I am turning into a fat burning machine, you DO know that muscle burns fat right?! More muscle less fat...the two cannot coexist! So what are you waiting for? For your fat to melt off by just watching the videos? WORK IT! Plain and simple, no excuses and if you have any then you're just not ready...Because if you want something bad enough nothing can get in the way!

Monday is my fit test and measurements!!!!

Day Thirty September 14th 2010, Tuesday

Remember when I was so excited about sweating? Yeah, I'm over it! Love the work outs but now being this soaked is pretty gross. BUT it does delight me that I am working hard enough to get this drenched!

I'm in recovery week now so the workouts aren't going to be too intense but still they cause you to sweat profusely!!! I really love Insanity! I'm almost afraid to try any other workout for fear of being let down, but I will because I do NOT want to hit a plateau I need to spice it up a bit. Plus I highly doubt anything created by beachbody will let me down!!!

I look forward to Monday because I get to weigh in, measure and take pix!!! YAY! I can't wait to see the changes, I definitely feel them that's for sure!

OK off to hit the showers now...

DIG DEEPER, please...Think of the end goal, picture the fat melting off with each bead of sweat, picture the pictures of yourself in a cute top or with your new, smaller jeans, do this for YOU, do this for LIFE!

Day twenty seven September 11th 2010, Saturday...MY BIRTHDAY!

What a way to bring in my day! I have this sudden boost of energy!!!! Half because it's my birthday and half because of my workout!!! And again I cried. I LOVE Plyometirc Cardio Circuit!!! It always makes me cry, it could be the fantastic mood altering music, it could be that he just stares at the camera and pushes you, it could be that he wont let up and it's constant moving no break, it could be that I am so happy to be doing this, or mad that sometimes I can't. I don't know, but this is the ONE and ONLY time I am happy to say I cried (those who know me, know I am NOT a crier!) This was the end of month one!!!! Next week is all recovery and then on the month two and I am SCARED!! But God has not given me a spirit of fear so I'm going full force!!!! I can't wait...I'm almost at my goal, I'm looking forward to measurements and weighing in in 2 weeks!!!!!

People I know life get's in the way, I do...I had to stop when I first started this 3 months ago due to family drama, BUT I got back on...it was a temp set back...Push through, don't neglect urself because others neglect you...Why r u working out to begin with? FOR YOU no one else so y punish yourself when things get tough? You can do this!!! I am hear for you!!!! Ask me anything, let me know what I can do to help!

Day twenty six September 10th 2010, Friday

Pure Cardio AND Cardio Abs! TGIF!!!!

The only words I can spit out right now...TIRED, SORE, SWEATY, MAD! Yes the workouts sometimes make me mad...It's OK I won't stop, I push through my anger and gain strength to push further and...that's right, say it with me...DIG DEEPER! Tomorrow is my birthday!!! I look good for 25 huh?! Mwuahahahaha! No but for real...birthday or not, I'm not making a cake for myself so I don't have to worry about anything! And I am happy to say I no longer crave sweets the way I did before...I'm a sweet tooth, and it is my weakness or shall I say WAS my weakness, Shakeology is all I need now to quench that. I will NOT stop working out just because it's my birthday, as a matter of fact this is more reason to push through, at my age I need to stay fit! To be honest it's more than a need now, it's a want. I want to stay fit, I love to stay fit, it is a drug to me now...You know it takes anywhere from 21-28 days to form a habit I am 2 days away, and already, If I miss a day I feel so bad and I miss seeing Shaun T and hearing him yell! :-)

Today is Friday, I want everyone to go out and enjoy the day and the rest of the weekend. I know I am!!! Why? Cause it's my birth month!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm still waiting for my blender. LOL!
