down 4 lbs? day 43-46

8-9 (day43)...completed sweat 1/2.
8-10(day 44)...completed sculpt 3/4.
8-11(day 45)...missed.
8-21(day 46)...completed sculpt 3/4.

i found an extra cardio exercise that gets my heart pumping: jillian michaels cardio kickbox! it kicks your butt. it is so fun! the best thing it lasts 25 mins. it feels more like an hour and a half long workout.

good news!!
i think i lost 4 lbs between the time i got on walmart's evil scale back in late july and now since i changed some of my eating habits with cereal. i tried 3 different scales today. this is what they read...

scale 1: 195! (including clothes, shoes, etc.)
scale 2: 205. (huh? this is absolutely wrong. i'd never fit my clothes if it were true.)
scale 3: it was busted. lol it read 152 and then 200. it was crazy!

i feel smaller so im gonna officially say i lost some weight! i wanna go ahead and buy a decent scale instead of guessing on walmart's rinky dink merchandise.

3, 2, 1

wednesday, aug 6 (day 40) ... completed sculpt + barbie workout.

thursday, aug 7 (day 41) ... took the day off.

friday, aug 8 (day 42) ... will do sweat + abs + a lil extra cardio. i might add sculpt here too.

i always forget to add new journals lately. i usually am training for work so i never get around to working out on time and then i forget to write it down when i do workout. ay ya ya. i gotta get it together lol

it's about time i move on to the 3/4 series. im definitely not burning as much with 1/2 anymore on sweat and sculpt. that's a good sign, right? :) i think so!

u know i'm bad. 4-in-1

saturday, aug 2 (day 36) ... sculpt completed.

sunday, aug 3 (day 37)... missed. i went to a family dinner and got back late.

monday, aug 4 (day 38) ... slept late, sorta missed. i walked a mile but it was at 3:00 am which was actually (tuesday, aug 5).

tuesday, aug 5 (day 39) ... completed sweat + abs. i was going to include sculpt for missing it a few days before but i couldn't find my resistance bands. tomorrow i will do some barbie cardio and sculpt even though wednesdays are supposed to be my day off. no day off this week! :)

anyways, i've been training for work so i definitely need to learn to juggle my time a little better. i do need to go back to walmart and get on a scale. i wonder if it'll read this time. lol!!

29, 30

day 29: sculpt. completed.

day 30: ... completed. so i tried cardio 3/4. i lasted about 15 mins into it before i got too tired to go any further. shortly before trying 3/4, i walked a mile with leslie sansone's fat burning walk. my weight has not changed as a i hoped by day 30. i think i only managed to drop 1 freakin' pound. i think my eating needs to change and i need to add more cardio. i will only add 30 mins more cardio to power90's cardio. so this week i'm going back to what i've tried before when losing weight.

i'm going to eat:

oatmeal
cereal (apple cinnamon cheerios, reese's puffs, frosted flakes, lucky charms)
hot pockets
boudain and funyuns
canned juices (since they are portioned it's easy for me not to drink a whole 2 liter)
nachos
fruits (apples, grapes, oranges, bananas)

that's about all. i'm going to avoid any potatoes and once in a while have fried shrimp.

let's see how this week goes!!

i'm not getting as much of a sweat from either of these workouts. i'm going to try levels 3/4 on the 30th day to see how i perform. if i can keep up, i'll stick to them for the remainder of the 62 days!
