PROGRESS!!! (apologizing in advance for tooting my own horn)

Hey ladies. This blog is about a week late, but life has been HECTIC! So, I just want to put the good news in writing and exclaim that last month I lost 2 POUNDS! Yes. 2 entire pounds. I credit the success to my change in eating habits, going OFF the pill, and weighing myself (forgive me if this is TMI) during the unbloated time in my cycle. All I can say is that finally seeing results on the scale (not just in the mirror) has given me such a renewed motivation to continue upping my challenges in working out as well as eating right. So here are my current stats...

April weigh in: 124.4
Weight as of May 10th: 122.2
Goal Weight: 115

Ok enough bragging. Sarai, I saw on facebook that you had some Steven & Sasha time! Have they come to visit or have they moved there for good? Either way I'm glad you are together again!!!

Also, I have decided to follow your lead, Sarai, and rotate the L4L and Circuit Intervals. I just got through my first week of Burn, and have decided to "push" myself forward in weights on triceps and posterior deltoids. Those are my weakest muscles but going with just 6 lbs on those is not enough, and going up to 9 always seemed to heavy. Well no excuses, I am biting the bullet and pushing myself to try 9, even if I fail at 8. I will eventually work up to failing at 10. But staying with the lighter 6 lb weight was not progressing me along. Have you girls had similar experiences?

Shannon, I am excited (and slightly amused) at your breaking in the Tower 200 program! You'll have to fill Sarai in, if you haven't already, on your battle with the device! Talk about a new challenge.

WELL girls, its time for me to grab a shower & get productive with my Sunday! Love ya.

Amber
