So, life-long problem for me... push ups. Never could do them no matter how hard I tried. Until now, that is. Five rounds into 21 day fix and fix extreme and I can do 10 push ups!!! Whoop WHOOP!!!! I am SO celebrating this as a huge non scale victory. Huge as in I deserve a glass of wine, but I'm not going to because I've had one too many carbs today, huge. And that's huge!
On another note, I have been failing pretty miserably this round(five) at my workouts. I have had so much going on this month with the holidays and emotional drama that my workouts and eating have been seriously suffering. Out of 30 days this month, I worked out a grand total of.......wait for it......................15. That's an F. A big... fat... F. But then, I got this brilliant idea to weigh myself the other day! I squinced my eyes as I stepped onto the scale dreading the number I would see. I was sure I was going to be up the five pounds I had just lost, but when I opened them, I couldn't believe the scale. I had lost weight! What the heck!?!?! I lost weight going through three Thanksgivings. Holy cow is my body awesome! I'm going to try and do much better with this December round. Still round 5, but starting again. This round 5 is going to take me two and a half months at this rate! Lame... lame...lame Lisa. Gotta get my act together.
I have noticed that I'm getting so strong I am no longer shaking in a lot of the 60 second exercises. It's so cool being able to firmly plant myself and do the workout and still feel strong at the end. Beats feeling like I'm going to puke or collapse, that's for sure!
And finally, I have a grand total of 7 pounds left to lose to be at my pre-baby weight. I'm very proud. I'ts hard to believe I'm almost in the 140s again. Honestly, I didn't think I was going to see them again, EVER. I had almost resigned to the fact that I have five kids and this is my new mom body that just won't ever look like that again. I'm so happy to be proving myself wrong.
Until later,
Happy sweating!!!
