Almost There....

Yep, it's coming whether we like it or not. FRIDAY!!! I'm not as anxious as I was the past couple of weeks but it's always something I look forward to. Who doesn't???? It's like the window to 'weekend heaven'....LOL!

The week went by fast and I've been a very good girl. Why? Because I was able to get on my elliptical everyday since...wait for it...SUNDAY! Yep, I did it on a Sunday simply because I was feeling sluggish that day. I'm not an exercise nut by any means but I now believe that sweating it out can really boost your mood. That's what it did to me on Sunday [and any other day I feel that way]. I did it as soon as I got up in the morning and stayed on it for about 40 minutes. I felt a lot better after that 40 minutes workout.

Right now, my weight is probably 'the ideal weight' for me. Actually, I surpassed my weight goal already...and it's still going down bit by bit. The only problem is...I still haven't gotten rid of my midsection roll/s yet. That's the only one I want trimmed and it's not budging...at least not as much as I want it to...it just keeps 'jiggling'. Ugh! I stopped doing my Pilates for Abs routine because it doesn't seem to do the trick so I switched to another one. It's a lot more intense [for me anyway who is an exercise wimp] so I'm hoping it will yield results in time. I started it Friday of last week. The result of that initial try was painful. I could barely move last weekend because my back was so sore. Even breathing was a bit of a struggle. I took a few Tylenol and I was fine by Monday so I started it again that day. So far I've been doing it for 4 straight days and I haven't felt a lot of soreness....just a little bit here and there. Hopefully I ca keep it up.

I know for a fact that being consistent is the very reason I'm seeing some good changes. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can keep on doing what I'm doing...if only to keep my mood on the 'upbeat'...
