Monday 6/16/14

Okay, so I am probably not going to update Ben and Abby, unless I do the night before because I exercise in the morning and it is easier for me to report in the morning too. But Abby did run on Saturday, so yay for her! She is working really hard. Today she is at the school working out for 2 hours. I am so impressed with all she is doing. 

Today I walked a little further than usual, so I am going to say 1.3 miles plus my usual incline. I wish I could say it was getting easier, but I am not sure that it is. I am, however getting used to it. "They" say it takes 3 weeks to make a habit. This is the start of my 4th week, so hopefully that is true. :)

I am taking my measurements this morning. I took some last week but didn't post them I will post both today so I can see the progress, or lack of.....

CHEST              43                           42

WAIST              50                           48 1/2

HIP                    56                           55

THIGH                                              27 1/2

ARMS                                               16

Obviously I haven't done arms or thigh before so we will see how that goes next week!! I am not down a lot but I am down a little and that feels good. An inch all around makes my clothes fit a little better. My next challenge to add to this is to limit my sugar. My birthday is July 20th. I think I can go without desserts or extra, unneeded sugar until then. It will make my cake taste that much sweeter. I wish my Dad was here to make me red cake for my birthday. I sure miss him. Next year, red cake or no, he should  be here. :) Maybe I will attempt to make it for myself again this year or buy one from our cake shop. They do a good job but don't have all the small layers like I like. That would definitely be a reward for my sacrifice though! :)
