On Track...

I am happy to say that since the first Boot Camp class I have taken a class on each of Monday (Cardio Martial Arts - basically a Tae-box kind of class), Wednesday (Body Sculpt - a class with weights) and Friday (Boot Camp). After walking around like a grandma last weekend, it was MUCH easier this week. Now, I was starting to feel like I was already noticing a change in my body (some things actually felt a little less snug around the waist). I was wondering if it was just wishful thinking, so I decided I should weigh myself today. I am really happy to say that the number that showed up was 211.6! That's 3.6lbs in 10 days! Woo hoo! I am so excited about that. I am enjoying the classes (even though my stamina leaves a LOT to be desired right now and my muscles crap out pretty quickly during some sets) and find that because they are at lunch I am nowhere near the point of saying, "Oh, I'm too tired to go". I spend the mornings watching the clock and feeling quite excited about my workout time. Plus, I am preparing good meals and snacks to fuel myself properly. I have gone from having a Tim Horton's ice cap once a day to once a week (a major change in sugar and calories!). I plan to eventually phase that out to even less (baby steps). My journey is starting off well...I am pushing myself, but also listening to my body (not the voice that says give up) to ensure that I do not injure myself by trying to be Superwoman on Day 1. I am feeling the burn and the soreness, but not the pain...gotta keep going!
