I figured it was time to resurrect this blog since I've been doing this exact thing over the past two months. To be honest I really owe the motivation to Amelia. She jump started this with a month long work out competition. A bunch of us all pooled in $20 to see who could loose the most weight/inches. We all met up on a day and scaled and measured.
May 25th I started at 158.2 lbs. Ribs 37", Waist 41", Hips 41.5", Thighs 24.5", and arms at 12.5".
Started off slow. I cut out soda and took my green tea every day, but due to my work schedule I didn't get much exercise. Halfway through the month Dave bought me a Xbox Kinect with a dance game. Hello cardio! That got me motivated. It's so much fun and I'll actually get up to work out. :)
I also visited the GNC store and got some vitamins and protein powder for females. Trying to eat more chicken and less red meat. Healthy shakes.
We got together June 28th and I had lost 2.8lbs at 155.4. Ribs I lost 3" at 34". Waist I lost 2" at 39", hips I lost 2" at 39.5", Thighs I lost 2" at 22.5", and arms stayed at 12.5".
Overall I beat out everyone and won the challenge. It was then that I decided to keep going. I made a tattoo appointment for sept followed by a photo shoot. Going to work my butt off to see what I can do.
At the end of every month I'm going to weigh and measure.
Month two has been harder on my diet, but I have more of an effort to work out. We got a weight bench for out anniversary. I'll go down and turn on a show or music and lift weights. Really focusing on the form and isolating the muscles that I want to work. Water is my main choice of drink, with cucumbers in it. AMAZING! detoxes and flavors the water, which makes you more apt to drink it.
I need to just keep it going!
