Week three

 September 29th, 2020
...See more It is week three. And Im really honestly in disbelief of myself. Because I really feel I am not doing much. Dieting and 5 minute exercise videos 3X a day. I feel better and surprisingly I did have that same sharp stomach pain when I bent too far forward. It was not as painful or intense as before. Not just like a 5 on pain. Before if I was sitting and I bent forward my entire stomach would erupt in sharp pain. That hardly ever happens now. Im really surprised and proud of myself not gonna lie. I still have a long way to go and a long road ahead. But I am fucking excited. I didnt even bleep that because I deserve it. I don't know why I can't post pictures it's so weird.

The second week

...See more So the second week is way easier, but it's also easy to get lazy I've noticed. I've had my kids hold me accountable so my daughter will hear my phone go off and we HAVE to do the exercises. She keeps me on my toes. I can feel it's easier to move and the more I move the easier the movements get.one thing that is throwing me off is how tired I become. i need to NAP and sleep I don't know if it's because I've been getting up very early but by mid afternoon I'm so tired I want to sleep the day away. The leg crunches are easier and I can feel the burn when I do my core and abs. what are some ways to help with the tiredness? I'm already taking a multivitamin. I wonder if B12 will help.

Second week

...See more So far doing the Ab exercise is easier and I can move more and feel way more of a burn. I slacked yesterday so I made up for it with two extra five minute workouts. The key with making up exercises is Do! You have to hold yourself accountable. I even made my kids track me. My daughter has set reminders to count moms exercise. i am truly grateful for all of the support from friends and family. I am very tired after workouts though. Should I incorporate small naps. I'm worried I would lie down and just melt away the whole day with sleep.

Week one Done

...See more Oh my god, it's been one week. I feel all amazing, I am able to do a lot more movements with my exersize. I can now feel myself able to move further and longer. my Cylcle has been sporadic due to stress. My doctor says that is normal and now that I'm exercises my it will need to balance out. I'm not worried about little monsters because I haven't been with the Ex husband for over 2 years. I am so EXCITED! I have figured out that the calisthenics really work for me the reminders to do 2 sets of 10 are really helping me move more. the only thing I cannot do yet is Planks. not that I'm not trying. It's just physically I am unable to do it since I have a large mass of fat that still lies on the floor. I will get there! I will post a one week pic if I am able. Which I'm not sure if I can. I've tried but it's being weird.

Cheating in small doses

...See more So I woke up extra early today, since I wasn't able to sleep well and my body was just craving junk. I wanted a free set burger, some large fries! Spivey chicken sandwiches! I kept telling myself no and no. And thought of my Goal. Sexy red Dress. Hokey Pokey. TICKLE BEAST STAMINA! No greasy food. It was starting to bother me when I remember something the EX husband said to me once. Cheat in small doses. Instead of a Burger. Make a BLT, use a large Roll, add extra Bacon. Give into the craving but not entirely. loopholes baby. So I caved and I went to The Crack. (Jack In The Box) I was craving something greasy and remembered they have Egg roles. It's fried but it's veggies. And thy have that chicken bowl. Boom. bruh! I ate two egg rolls and I was stuffed. what the hell happened? I could polish off 10 easily. Now I can't even handle 2?! I have to admit I'm pretty happy that I got full right away and it satisfied that craving. Now fast food sounds gross. As punishment to myself I have done 3 five minute videos before I did my calisthenics. I found a new one under five minutes. And I'm finding I'm not getting as achey. For lunch I plan to have the Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. Rice is filling it has veggies and that chicken. I won't use the sauce because it's too sweet and I just got my A1C done and it has been jumping around. Sexy red Dress. Sexy red dress https://youtu.be/pj68OZ_1BOw

Burping into Oblivion

...See more Why? 3:30am? Why is my body awake? My entire schedule has been thrown off since exercises. It doesn't bother me since Ive no hours (CORA). Plus I work NOC anyway. One thing that is really not helping are these constant and unrelenting Burps, I can feel the gas build up and if I move and be active I start Burping like I chugged a gallon or Sprite Remix 😶. I found an article online about a guy who had the same problem when he did his Personalized Diet. It gave me some interesting perspective. I'll link it below. The Breathing exercise really helped me relax and now I'm tired. Im foregoing the 30 minute walk and instead I and doing this amazing hip release. As an Massage Therapist. (NOT MASSSOUR!) I have taken courses on the technique and this is honestly the best Routine I've ever seen. My hip feels so much better. But now my massage on Monday is going to be DEMANDED. Does anyone feel their body is weird? What are some things that happen to you? Sometimes if I move my legs my pinky toe and fourth toe on the left side will cramp. The toe! Stupid Savk of Bones. https://youtu.be/lhbhay5_M-0Deep Breathing https://youtu.be/Wemm-i6XHr8Article https://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/losingweight Ill post a 2 week progress pick next Tuesday, looking at myself I've noticed one side of my layer cake Fat is smoothing out. We can compare later. Also Check our the shop. My daughter made a Picture of me and the Ex Husband. So we designed her a shirt.

...See more My sore body protested against all of my stretching. I admit I did get distracted and didn't log in my lunch, I set up a merch shop and have no activity until I got on the laptop and realized I didn't set it up yet. I. Am. A dork. my morning walk turned into an 8pm wall since the kids were snacking on dessert. I took advantage and fled from the sugar cones my mother picked up for them. Left over Homemade Salisbury steak dominated my lunch and dinner. And my smal calisthenics work outs err mostly an arms and back. Today was arm Toning workout which my daughter loved. I am proud to say both of my kids got tired and gave up towards the last minute and a half and I didn't stop once. Small victories are so satisfying. I'm trying my hardest with the Ab and side work out too. I'll need to get a Yoga Mat. Heres the Ab and core workout video https://youtu.be/PJO1hQSMPT4 and here's the arms https://youtu.be/PJO1hQSMPT4 honestly this was the best arm workout I've ever done I can't wait to continue on. Tomorrow will be the Booty and low Ab work out. Universe give me strength. *edited by forum mentor @rebecca947 to delete link to personal shop.

Day three

...See more Magic number three I cannot begin to explain the burning pain of all the lactic acidosis build up in my arms. I spent the day Streching in little bursts throughout the day. I am getting a massage next week, that is so needed now. And since today is day three I have started on the belly burning Ab core and side 5 minute work out. you can find the video here. https://youtu.be/ohgLmY19jNg I had my 10 year old daughter do it with me. She loved it and it will be our nightly 9pm work out before bed. Because honestly, I'd rather had fat burning tummy pain than arm pain. Even though I didn't do my 2 sets of 10 calisthenics exercises every few hours through out the the day. I substituted with streching. (Reminder BREATH WHILE STRETCHING) Today my inspiration comes from my son, we had to do the Hokey pokey in his preschool lesson today. This Five year old stood and did every single dance move and didn't wear out once. He even shouted again after the second run through. I am not going to lie I felt really sad in that moment that I couldn't Keep up with him YET. it is giving me more determination. Goal for the Month: Do the Hokey Pokey with The Handsome Boy.
