Update

I realized it has been a long time since I have given an update. Of course I will update soon with my new measurements and pics but I should check in more often than once a month. I have been doing well. I started Level 3 of Jillian's 30 Day Shred this week after completing 10 days of level 1 and 10 days of level 2. I really like it! Today I am hurting but that is a good thing. It means I am working hard and working out muscles I haven't been working before, which is a good thing. I am still doing the elliptical. Not as often as before though. Just if I have the time/energy to get on after my Jillian workout.

I am noticing a lot of changes. I really think I will have quite a change in inches this month. I can't wait to see the progress photos. LOL! I am down to 231 in weight. So I am still losing at a healthy level. I have to say though it can be tough to watch the Biggest Loser and see them pull the BIG numbers and I am just plodding along. But then I have to remind myself that they are working out for 4 hours a day!!

I am still doing my food diary. I track every day and have 88 days logged so far. Of course I have my good days and my bad days. But even when I have a bad day I am stayiong within my calorie limits. I end up splurging (like yesterday I had a half of a Peanut Butter Snickers and some Milk Duds) but then I just make sure I do the exercise needed to work it off. So I really think I am doing great. Of course I would love it even more if I could pull those big numbers like BL but that isn't realistic.

I have discovered through BL how much I really like Bob Harper. He really feels for his people and cares about them. It leaves me wishing I had someone helping me and supporting me like that. Don't get me wrong, I have support from my friends and family. But they are on the sidelines cheering me on. I don't have anyone to walk with, hike with, exercise with. Someone to push me when I am not feeling it. Or push me further when I think I am done. Someone to cry with me when things are hard. Someone to cheer with me when I reach a goal. I just wish I had someone. For now, I think I am just going to buy some Bob Harper videos though. Cuz that is really all I can do.
