This whole process of transforming from fat to fit is very hard on my poor little brain. I know I started last September, but between finishing up a Couch Potato program, breaking over Christmas, having a few false starts in January, and having further developed my individual program(s), I feel like I am starting fresh again.
The major difference between this restart and the September Start is that in September I was out of breath, red-faced and panting after jogging for 60 seconds, and today, I jogged for 10 minutes before taking a break. And on Friday, when I get on the treadmill again, I'm hoping to not need that break, but to be able to just jog for 25 minutes straight. That feels really good. Also, my waist is much smaller - not sure of exact numbers yet; I need to measure again - but all of my skirts are a little loose around the hips, and then basically sag around my waist. I just need a tiny little bit more lost around my hips before I can drop down into the next size of skirts, of which I have several gorgeous ones just hanging patiently in my closet waiting.
Diet-wise, I have to say I'm being very good - looking forward to Saturday's weigh-in - but I'm not 100% following my meal plan yet. I'll get there soon, I think.
Looking at today's plan vs. reality, things I need to focus on in order to be successful are:
- Get out of bed in the morning
- Pack healthy snacks
- Drink water
- Eat fruit (and veggies)
In other news, I'll be going to a free kick-boxing class tomorrow night for my cross-training, and I found a vocal coach today whose ideas about teaching voice AND schedule seem perfectly matched to my ideas and schedule... very exciting stuff, this!
