Last 10 Pounds


I watched this show for the first time on Mother's day. I find I hardly get any TV time anymore. So I sat down and was flipping through the channels. I tuned in to this. I enjoyed it, however, I have way more than just 10lbs to lose!

It did help me though. It brought me back to the beginning and gave me a reminder. In the beginning, I read Body for Life and was all pumped. Body for life got me to lose 12.4lbs. BFL says dont count fat or anything, just make healthy choices and reasonable helpings. BFL also says to do cardio one day, upper strength the next, cardio, then lower strength.

So then I started doing Jillian Michael's 30 day shred, which I love. BUT! I was doing it every day. For the first week I lost 3.6lbs which brought me to my 15lb weight loss. Then after that weight chaos and fluctuations galore!

So The last 10lbs helped me to remember that I need to eat healthy and more not less. I have gotten in to a bad habit of eating the same thing everyday and my body has adapted. I need to switch it up.

Also, Jillian had me doing the same exercises every day and BFL says that's not good. So I will do Jillian's workouts Mon, Wed, Fri and ride my bike Tues, Thurs.
