Day 3 - Friday and Feeling It!!

So the kids are my excuse for not getting my booty out of bed at 4am to get on the treadmill which was one of the goals I wrote about yesterday. All three of them came into our room at least one time during the night complaining they could not sleep....so that meant that Momma isn't going to sleep either.......

But, I have already completed my SI6 routine (by 8am) and feel stronger and stronger each day. The arm section still kills me but I think I got through most of it today without taking a break. I will say that is my favorite thing about the routine....even though we may be focusing on our midsection or legs, we are always moving our arms. So the hard work will be worth it. 

Goals for the weekend:
Saturday - SI6 and 30 min on Treadmill
Sunday - SI6, Lean and Limber and 30 min on Treadmill

Day 2 - second time around

I'm so excited! I made it through another S-I-6 workout and 20 mins on elliptical machine today. I am definitely feeling the work I did yesterday but working out the muscles again has made me not so sore.....just remember this feeling later, Momma, so that you can stay motivated!!

I felt more confident and in sync going through the routine today and am anxious about adding the supplemental routines to my workout tomorrow. The constant arm work is really killing me but that is where I can see the recent weight gain the most. So, that is great to me!!

I'm hoping that I can start waking up at my normal 4am time to get my body started with a 15 min elliptical workout like I used to do as well as add a "end of the day" 20 min elliptical workout before bedtime.

Day 1 - Starting Over

Okay, so I've not REALLY started over but I've had a few set backs over the last week (please pray for my 94 year old grandmother and her continued good health). 

So, Reader,  today is my new DAY 1. I received my new Slim in 6 videos and today I did the first session. I made it through and it was tough. BUT I'm so motivated. The video was actually fun, I feel like I might want to do it again later in the day. How awesome is that!!?? I also did 15 minutes on my elliptical machine and will do 20 minutes more later in the day. My hubby, who is working from home today, called me "Iron Woman" earlier so I know the change is making an impact on him. I wish he would do this with me but maybe when he sees (and he will see) the different me, he will adopt the program!!

So my goals for the rest of the week:

1. Just keep up the good work!! Keep doing the videos. Should focus on this on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.

2. Do one yoga class this week - Thursday!!!

3. Be happy with the progress!!
