Today's work out:
60 Crunches
12 Pushups
130 Squats
85 Leg Lifts
There is no part of this anymore that doesn't hurt. It's all horrible. I started at 50 squats, and I used to be ok with that, and mostly okay with the crunches. But today is day 13 of THE CHALLENGE, and, well, 130 squats. That is more. Everything is shaking and everything is hurting. But it's okay, because I'm pretty sure it's like, a sexy kind of hurting. So booyah.
Can I stop real quick and say that I haven't missed one single day since starting this challenge? 13 days straight, which means that some of those exercises have been done at 6am before getting ready for work. I gotta say, Old Me is CRAZY impressed by Now Me.
I took my March 1 measurements and weight on March 1, but I decided to hoard them for a few days before sharing. Because I'm selfish. And, I suppose, unenthusiastic.
March 1 weigh in: 166.
Weight lost since February 1: 2 pounds
Weight lost since January 1: 10 pounds
Belly lost since February 1: 1 inch
Belly lost since January 1: 3 inches
Waist lost since February 1: 1.5 inches
Waist lost since January 1: 3.25 inches
It's progress. The measurements make me happy, because you can SEE THOSE RIGHT IN YOUR FACE HOLES. Even when the weight is dropping slowly, it's a reminder that when I'm skinny, I don't have to be a "fat skinny". I'm gonna be "wear a bandana as a shirt skinny". Or at the very least, "button my pants skinny".
Speaking of pants. I have been wearing my Size 8 jeans lately, and I think they look pretty good except for this tiny little thing, which is that I cannot button them. No, that's not true. I absolutely CAN button them, but I am an advocate for the ethical treatment of my favorite pair of jeans, and buttoning them almost certainly constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. So instead I do the rubber band trick that you're supposed to use when you're just a little bit pregnant, even though, of course, I am not just a little bit pregnant. Free pass here: If anyone looks at me and THINKS I'm a little bit pregnant. I do not care. I am not insulted. I'll just blame my rubber band.
Happy belated March 1, Friends! Don't go too nuts with the green stuff this month. You're probably not Irish. And it just makes you look crazy.
Oh and yes: I changed some things about the blog. The weigh ins pages, and the design here. I'm going for clean. Sleek. Sexy. As minimalist in my page design as I intend to be in my pants size. HAAA. Okay. I'm done now.
