No pain, no gain...right?
Today I did Trim Your Tummy from the 5 Day Slim Down. Whoever said exercise was fun...was LYING. But I do feel good about myself for keeping my commitment. I will say that I'm SOOOO glad tomorrow is Friday and that I get the weekend OFF.
That being said...I'm going to be making a few changes.
I'm going to continue with my current DVD until (1) I get the moves down with no huffing and puffing or (2) I just get tired of it. I think changing the routine everyday helps and I have to tell you that I look SO forward to the cool down! As you all know, I've been walking 5 days a week, during the day. Beginning next week, I'm going to try to go to 3 times a week in the evening, as well. Just bump myself up a little. Baby steps.
Also while I don't count and measure yet, I am going to start trying to have a better breakfast in the mornings. I bought oatmeal and whole wheat bread. Instead of a big bowl of cereal, I'm going to try to have something sensible and filling. Today I had:
Breakfast - 1 cup of plain oatmeal (I ate maybe half of it) with brown sugar (sorry, I didn't measure) and dates with soy nuts. I also had 4 fresh strawberries.
P.S. I hate plain oatmeal. So nasty!!! Even the brown sugar and dates with nuts didn't help. If you have a suggestion for a better tasting, but still healthy oatmeal, please let me know!
Last, my friend Rachel gave me her older model bodybugg to help me keep track. Right now, I'm a newbie to all this, so I don't have anything to say other than I wore this thing today during my walk and I can't wait to see what my stats are... I'll keep you updated!
