Daily Progress Day- 30

I am not sure why but I am feeling a little down today. I did my exercising dealing with my messed up knee from yesterday. I have been taking aspirin to help with the pain and swelling. I mad it through the 2 mile power walk. I knew I wouldn't be able to make it through all the lunges and leg work on my Biggest Loser DVD.
Today is my free day and I made it a free day and I think this contributes to the down feeling I am having too.
Tonight is date night. We are having dinner in our bedroom and watching a movie. I think it is called Swing Vote. Kelsey Grammer is in it and I really like him.
Tomorrow I hope my knee is better and my spirit has lifted. Praying for comfort and help. Have a great evening. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Thursday Weigh In Day- Week 5 Challange

This morning I wasn't thrilled with the weight loss but understanding that muscle weighs more that fat so I am excited about the measurement numbers. I lost almost 1 pound. I have lost 1.5 inches each bicep, 3 inches in the waist, 2 inches in the hips, 1 inch each thigh, 1/2 in each calf. So this is a grand total of 11 inches off. YEAH!! I am thrilled with the inches lost.
My jeans are fitting a lot more lose than before even after freshly washed. My arms are getting tone and my bicep actually pops up when I make a muscle. More important I have energy to last through the day. I seriously am more happy now that I am taking better care of me.

Week 5 Challenge
What I will be concentrating on this week:
Mind: Progress not perfectionist. Meaning I can do 80% and it will still be okay.
Protectionism is the enemy of DONE! I am not going for perfectionism just to be healthy, lean, and HOT!!

Mouth: Watch out for stress eating. I am doing better at this. Keeping in mind of what my goal is and exercising every day helps so much. I am a work in progress.

Muscle: Medicating with Movement. This means that instead of turning to food I will either meditate or exercise when I am struggling with issues in life. Working out the stress and doing something about it other than leaning on my old habits.
So even though I didn't lose weight I have gained muscle and I am toning up.

I did my 2 mile power walk this morning with upper body work out. My knee was feeling the workout from the past 3 days with so much leg work but I did okay.
I don't think I am eating enough. I am hungry constantly so I need to switch around some foods to figure out what will help with this that is healthy.
Any suggestions Janel??? Could use the help.
Have a great day! Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Daily Progress Day 27

This morning was a day that I seriously thought I wasn't going to be able to work out due to my extra workout yesterday. Much to my surprise I did! I didn't even wake up sore. I was so happy. I did my BL-Cardi and then the BL-Sculpt training. This takes me about an hour to do these workouts. It felt really good when I got done. I didn't have time to do the walk workout Coco and I wanted to go get some retail therapy in before Talmages nap time. We had fun.
It has been a clean day of eating. I have made some white chicken chili, corn bread and salad for dinner and it smells so wonderful.
So off to get dinner on the table. Hope you have a great night. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Daily Progress Day 26

Today was a slow start for me. I wanted to exercise but things just kept getting in my way of getting to work out. So I finally got to it. I did my Biggest Loser Cardi, then my Biggest Loser Sculpt Training then a 2 mile power walk with upper and lower body work. I felt good but very tired when I got done. So glad I did. I really need to step up and do a little more to become lean, strong and healthy.
As far as eating for the day I have done really good. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Daily Progress Day 24 and 25

Saturday I had an awesome workout. I did the Biggest Loser sculpt then the cardio. I was really huffing and perspiring like crazy. But boy did it feel great. I ate clean most of the day till dinner. We had pizza I didn't make homemade but I didn't pig out so I feel like I did well.
Sunday is my day off exercising. I have done well on the clean eating.
I am feeling really good and enjoying the feeling. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Daily Progress Day-23

Today is my free day. I have done good not great on the clean eating but I haven't pigged out either. There are certain foods that just taste odd to me now. It is a good thing as Martha Stewart would say.
This morning I did my cardio of a 2 mile power walk with upper body. Remember I said I needed to kick it up a notch well I am trying. I got out myBiggest Loser Sculpting DVD and did that workout. It felt really good.
In the Body For Life I know I am suppose to be lifting a lot harder than just starting now but I can't just workout lifting weights without someone pushing me so I thought this would give me the kick I needed to get me seeing results in a leaner, stronger and tighter body.
It is date night with hubby. I am so looking forward to the weekend and church on Sunday. I feel a renewed power of I CAN spirit in me.
Have a great evening! Hugs, Bobbi Jo
