Core! It's still my favorite, followed closely by Strength Intervals, believe it or not.
Not much to really report. It's getting easier and easier to do the moves. I'm starting to unmodify more and more of the moves. It's not as hard as I thought.
I'm noticing my relationship to food is starting to change. I'm viewing it purely as fuel now, rather than...I don't know...love? I'm not seeking it out when I'm stressing (I still WANT it, but I'm not indulging) or sad or angry. My self control is better. I'm getting increasingly proud of myself.
I really am changing my life. And it feels really good!

Day Twenty Two
CORE DAY!
My favorite! But boy, I'm STILL feeling the workout from Strength Intervals. Poses I can do normally I had to break and go back into after a pause. Which bums me out, but I'm proud I didn't stop (I REALLY wanted to!)
On another note, I was feeling pretty good today so I grabbed the tape measure just to see if, after three long weeks, any progress has been made.
I'VE LOST 14.8 POUNDS AND TWELVE INCHES OVERALL! Five inches came off my stomach alone! I was really surprised. But I was mostly PROUD.
Here's to tomorrow! It's Buns Day.... And that makes me nervous! Burpees are awful.

Day Seventeen
Man I love Core. So far, is my absolute favorite. Is targeting where I need it most, which is nice, but also because I can do all the moves!
Twas a good sweaty workout. I feel really good. I feel confident. I'm still having some issues emotionally but I'm determined to work through them. Today was a good day. So I'm heading to bed knowing that today, just today, was good. And I'm keeping positive thoughts that tomorrow will be good, too.

Day Thirteen
Today was a better day.
Woke up swollen from crying so much, but I felt better. Continued to count calories and move more.
I finished Core quickly and easily. My palms and hands are pretty sore but I suppose that's to be expected. I also mowed the lawn. Haven't sweat THAT much in a while. So gross. But I feel good.
I guess I will just chalk yesterday up to a bad day and forget about it. It happened. I can't dwell on my mistakes forever anymore. So here's to a bright happy tomorrow!

Day Nine & Ten
Blogging every day is proving hard for this tired momma. How do some parents do this?!
Day Nine brought a new exercise: Core. And it's my favorite thus far, hands down. Lots of work that targets my trouble area: my stomach. I couldn't figure out some of the moves the first time and had to stop a couple of times just to figure them out, so I went ahead and did Core a second time. And boy, was I tired by the end of it. It was great!
Day Ten brought us an hour out of town visiting my grandparents. We left early morning and got home late evening. I had every intention of doing Upper and Lower Body. But it didn't work out like that.
And honestly, I'm okay with having another rest day. My hands and palms are SORE! Ouch! They're getting stronger, but until I can learn to transfer some of the weight in these positions, I suppose I just need to learn to deal with it.
Day Eleven will have me doing Upper and Lower Body, but I won't protest if it ends up being just one of those and a good walk with the dog.
