Breaking News

The last entry I posted was only 4 days before our beautiful baby girl surprised us by coming early. The past 10 1/2 weeks have been quite the journey. Today marks the end of one journey and the beginning of another. Our family, all 3 of us, are home safely now and we couldn't be happier. God has blessed us more than we could have ever imagined. I have so much to share, but for now I'd rather sit here and look at my beautiful daughter and her sleeping daddy. My cup runs over ;)

Coming soon: pictures and more details!

hope4ou - Oh no...it's Contagious

I've completely lost motivation.  I haven't done the workout in several days.  I feel like I should just start over...but not tonight...

sad business.

Britt - Failure

I'm not doing well at this 30 day challenge at all. How many times have I worked out since we started? 2 times. I really hope I can get my act together. I thought having to wear a sleeveless dress in Stephanie's wedding (on 3/13) would be enough motivation. But, I guess it's not. Hopefully, I can motivate myself to workout tonight (in Jesus name)! :-)

Excuses...

I am the main one who says it's easy to fit this workout in because it's so short. Last week I did the video 6 days out of the 7! But this week...I've only done one day. I don't have a list of excuses, just one--I've been really tired. My plan once again is to workout tonight to make up for this morning...I'll keep you posted.

Off the wagon

So I have been doing a great job of working out daily, until I agreed to do this 30 day challenge. Once I made the commitment, I fell off the wagon. I did Level 3 on Monday, and haven't made it back since. It was very challenging, but i enjoyed it. I was sore yesterday, but I feel good today. I plan to hit it tonight and in the morning. I have to get back on it...I know I can.

hope4ou - day 5

the truth is...i really didn't want to workout last night...and i've started to memorize the script.  my husband came in during portions of the 20 minute workout and kept making me laugh.  THAT makes it harder.  i did survive again though.  im less and less sore each day.

I WANT RESULTS - but on a positive note...I'm halfway through Level 1.  I suppose that's good and bad.

hope4ou - day 4

I survived day 4 last night.  It's really not so bad.  For the first time, I did it by myself.  I "felt" the strength training more last night than I have in days past.  My cardio is still not up to par...I guess it's only been 4 days, but I'm hoping it gets better before the workout gets more strenous.  It's the jumping around that gets me...I don't like to jump.  I prefer my feet firmly planted on the ground. 

Day 1 (again)

I started over yesterday. The 3 lb weights make a huge difference!!! It was still hard, but not nearly as hard as it was with the 5 ib weights. I feel like I can make it 29 more days.

hope4ou - day 3

While I am pretty sore...the hardest part for me is the cardio.  I can honestly say...day 3 was a bit easier.  My husband joined it with me on this workout.   I'm feeling it most in my legs.  Only day 3...but I'm ready for results...LOL...I know....NERVE!
