Sweat ~ Jully
Yesterday, Virginia gave me a great work out. I have gotten a lot more flexible, and I may be doing something right because she's been challenging me. I was dripping with sweat 1/2 way during the class.
Today, I had the training run in Central Park. 11 miles!!! I didn't think I was going to make it past 9 miles, but I just kept going. Needless to day, I was SWEATY!
Tomorrow, another week will begin. Wonder what other challenges will come my way to be conquered. Oh Yeah!

I've got issues. ~ Jully
Date: 7/11/09 - Saturday
Weight: 170.5lbs
Goal: lose 20lbs in 6 weeks
During the 4th of July weekend, I went to the "Lucky" jeans store. I headed straight to the sale section (50-75% OFF!) and I picked a few pairs from the 32 size section. I tried them on and picked the winning one. The next morning, I went to wear them and noticed it was a bit loose. I had to ask all my friends, "Is this big? I think it's big?!" I took the pants off and tried again the next day. It was still loose, but I wore it anyways. Part of me thought they might fit better after a meal. Well, here's what finally hit me. I didn't even THINK to try a smaller size, I've got myself convinced that I'm bigger than my actual size. I've now wore them 3x and am finally convinced I should have gone with 1 (or more) size smaller.
Starting Tuesday (7/7), I started the "revised" version of the Isagenix program. Yesterday, I didn't have ANY of the products with me, so I had to monitor the eating on my own. By last night, I really felt like I should just get off of it because I wasn't really feeling any difference, if anything, I've been feeling fatter. Today, after my pilates session, I went to check my weight and stood there for a solid 3 minutes just waiting for the weight to balance. "170.5, what does that mean. How much was my weight last week? Wait, did I just lose 4lbs in 1 week? huh?"
So I've got issues. I think I'm larger and heavier than the reality. Eventhough the loss has been gradual, my mind and body are taking a little while to synch up to each other.
In any case, I'm feeling pretty damn good.
