Day 3 Hump day!

Ok so the wake up call from my measurements really had me geared up to get my workout in. In fact it was the only reason I got up at 5:30 to go work out with a bunch of dudes! Yep I was the only girl! I got home from that workout and weighed myself and found out I gained 2 lbs. I was so sad and wanted to console myself with a cupcake (no I'm not an emotional eater at all :P) Luckily though I posted my dissapoint on facebook and got a lot of good encouraging feedback so instead of going crazy at the potluck today I did pretty dang good! I even skipped the cupcake! Yep it's true! I did have some cookies though. I tell you I have to stop cold turkey on the sweets! I think I might adopt the Catholic's observance of Lent and give sugar up even though Lent started a week ago!
I really wanted to skip doing the Power 90 workout but they have a little workout tracker online and I didn't want to flake out on the 3rd day! Plus I found out that if I stick with this 90 day progam my 90th day will actually be on my 33rd birthday!! So that regenerated my energy to see this through! I did extra abs at the gym as well and I'm excitd that they are sore! Once again I forgot my camera so no pics! I am including my lovely pic from the turkey trot though. How horrid is it?! I mean seriously why would they even post that! Homework time!

Day 2 Wahoo!

Ok I readily admit it I am completely out of shape and there is no denial anymore! Yesterday's sculpting work out kicked my trash! I woke up pretty sore this morning, you would have thought I ran a marathon or did a Biggest Loser workout. I remember someone said on one of the many health infomercials that I have watched that they said they loved the sore feelings because it meant their body was getting back in shape! I am trying to tell myself that as well.
I ate pretty good during the day but that darn school potluck! A real Native American made Indian fry bread so I couldn't pass that up it would have been very racist of me right?! I didn't put any stuff on it though. One of the girls in my cohort makes these little cookie treats with vanilla waffers, cream cheese and rasberries. I figure it was my fruit intake for the day LOL! So yes the treats and sweet things got me again. I didn't eat lunch today so I still stayed in my 1400 calorie range, but I want to eat better foods. I have another potluck tomorrow at work, and after my downfall at this one I am more determined than ever to rise above the temptations. We'll see how it goes.
I didn't the power 90 cardio in this morning so unfortunately I had to do it after class and the sweet attack! Boy did I pay for it too! I actually felt that nausiated feeling that I hadn't felt since I did bootcamp at the gym. Not a fun feeling and it has definitely cured me of my sweet tooth for now! It felt good to get my heart rate up, but I was really bummed out at how hard my heart was pumping. It's sad that a body can go to pot so quickly! Age is probably a factor too, but I don't want to think about that issue right now :)
Tomorrow I am planning on double duty strength training with power 90 and going to my old high school gym. BB's son Herman and a couple of other guys work out everyday at the gym at 6am. I went off and on for a while and need to get back on the wagon. Drew will be joining me tomorrow to make sure I go. I might regret this decision tomorrow! I took my measurements as well and they aren't pretty my thighs since leaving Gilbert have literally spread 6 inches! So I have grown a whole foot length wise across my legs!! Thinking of things that way really puts things in perspective for me! I will post my measurements with my before pics which I hope to take tomorrow. I keep forgetting to bring my camera home! Well 6am comes quick so I am off to bed!

Day 1 - Oh my buns!

Ok so I actually up and did Sculpt 1-2 of Power 90 and holy crap it actually kicked my butt! I was shocked, I used to do this program with little effort and today I struggled. Quite the wake up call for me and I can't live in my little world of denial dang it! I ate pretty good, but I did over indulge in this cream cheese, cream of chicken, green chile dip that my sister had made. I did keep my calories under 1500 which was good. Tommorow I need to be more strict and avoid the bad stuff. I also had some hot cocoa because it was rainy and cold outside and I couldn't resist. I know I know weak sauce!! Hence why I have to do better tomorrow. We are supposed to have a potluck for the last day of my class tomorrow so hopefully I will be stronger tomorrow. I will post pictures tomorrow I forgot my camera at school. I will also post my measurements which will be embarrassing but I need to see those numbers! If I got a wake up call from my work out today I can only imagine what will happen when I see my measurements!
We'll see what tomorrow brings! It is the cardio 1-2 and I am already dreading it! I will do it though I am committed! Go team!
