Morning 2

           

Yes, I'm excited to see the scale come down but I won't be getting all cocky like I did last time & think I can lose this weight without following very closely to my diet plan. I know what I have to do & I also know that I can't get to far off of the plan if I want to continue to get this sludge off of me.

This is my workout for today. I figure if I get back into my weight training then I will see results quicker. I got this video from Target ... for about $10. This DVD has 5 different programs. You get 2 cardio segments 20 minutes a piece, a weights segment also 20 minutes, a bootcamp segment also 20 minutes, and a stretch segment which is only 10 minutes. The workouts are actually pretty challenging for beginners ...  it can be challenging for the more advance but you really have to put forth the effort to make it so. The quality of the workouts are good, but there are a couple of reasons why I give this 4 stars instead of 5. This is very high impact. If you have joint/knee problems this is not the DVD for you. There is ALOT of jumping. Also, this must have been recorded before the finale because the cast of former contestants were visibly unable to keep up on some of the exercises. Also, sometimes they would be going at a different pace, or be on a different foot, than Bob the trainer. These things can be pretty distracting. The versatility of this DVD is a big selling point. You can choose just one segment, or you can mix & match. Its really very user friendly. So, for the intensity of the workouts & the versatility of this DVD I give it 4 stars.

I have to go to the dentist this morning ... oh what fun. Seems like I just had them cleaned a couple weeks ago. Can't believe it has already been 6 weeks. The teeth that I had pulled are ehaling up nicely too. It's strange how quickly one can gain a habit ... good or bad! I have become accustomed to brushing my teeth after every meal. Before it was just once in the morning & once before bed ... never had a problem with cavities ... just tell me I need to floss. Floss even if I can't brush. Never thought I would hear a dentist say that but oh well. My mouth feels cleaner.
