Can I just tell you...

...How awesome I'm feeling lately?   Wow -- with my posts lately I probably sound like a pumped up perky-all-the-time cheerleader..  Not my intention so sorry if I come off as a total nut. 

This morning I had my second bootcamp. (for the next 5 weeks ill be going M,W,F every week, and I may even throw some Saturdays in.)  My first bootcamp was pure HELL.  I couldn't finish most of the cardio stuff, I was on the verge of throwing up the entire time.  When we ran, I came in last....even very far behind a women definitely heavier and older than me... AND pushing a stroller w/ her baby!  (can you say embarrassing?)  If my body matched my atheletic ability and endurance I would weigh 450 pounds.  For realsies. I almost hate sometimes that I LOOK somewhat fit because I think when people see me excercise and get winded so fast that I'm faking it.  (NOPE, wish I could say I was!)  DURING Wednesdays boot camp I thought, 'Screw this.  I'm going to die.  It's WAYYYY too hard for me.'  But after I got home and shook the feeling of death I actually felt GOOD.  Sore (which equals RESULTS!) and pumped up that I did something so hard...to the best of my ability anyway.  ;)  I thought about skipping my class this morning, and waiting for Monday to go back, but then I decided that I need to start off on the right foot - not skipping classes, but getting my lazy butt up out of bed!  I'm SO GLAD I did.  Today's bootcamp was MUCH easier for me!  Not to say it wasnt still a major challenge, but I DID IT!  Today I didn't even get nauseas!  (I did however sweat my BUTT off.  In light grey shorts...bad idea).  

So anyway, now I'm at home, relaxing before a JAM PACKED day of work!  And I feel AWESOME!  I figure from here on out, there are going to be some days I absolutely hate, and then other days that I hate but will feel great AFTER.  Once my five weeks are over I'll post a before/after picture.  I'll also post my results - how many inches I lost and how much weight I lost.  I got my measurements done today - I must say that BMI-wise I'm better than I thought.  Our trainer said we'll work on toning,  not losing, but I think it would be IMPOSSIBLE not to lose something with these intense workouts!  My ultimate goal is to look GOOD for new years!  I want to wear something form fitting that shows off sleek curves...NOT these saddlebags and a fupa!

  1. I am working to look great for NYE as well. I started keeping a food/workout journal and will log my daily weight. I want to see my weight EVERY day so I know when I have messed up what the results are. I am also committing to using the elliptical three times a week. My major goal is to lose 30 pounds by NYE, which is totally realistic. My mini goal is to lose 8 pounds in September. :)
