If you can’t brag on your blog, where can you brag?

I haven’t reported on my progress on getting fit in awhile, but I can’t help bragging a little bit today.

I posted before about the change in my eating habits… that is still going strong with the help of my beloved red Blend Tec ( a present from my even more beloved spouse!) I still eat meat… in fact on Friday night Aunt Chele and Grampy were here from Texas and we all went to eat at 5Star where I had some fantastic ribs and brisket. When I got home though, I had an uncontrollable urge for a green smoothie. My body is in love with them and won’t let a day go by without at least one.

The other big change is that I have joined the early morning exercise group with some friends from my ward. They’ve been doing 20 SECOND FITNESS since Christmas time and every single woman looks totally amazing. I’ve been “ 20 second tough” (heh heh) for two weeks. It’s the most difficult workout I’ve ever done, but it’s only 8 to 12 minutes long so it’s doable. This morning my muscles were still shaking for 20 minutes after I got home. WHEW.

Here’s the boast-able part. Last night my mom redid my measurements for me and in 2 weeks they have changed so much. My arms, chest and hips have all gone down 1/2”. My waist went down 2”. In TWO WEEKS, people.

I’m so thrilled. I hope we continue to meet and get beaten up by Spence for a long, long time. If we ever stop, I’ll definitely make the investment in the system and keep on going. I have found, though, that I do better when my friends are expecting me to show up. It’s just too easy to think of reasons not to exercise when I’m doing it on my own.

I’m going to wait until the end of 90 days to post before and after pictures. I do have a before picture and it’s a travesty. I won’t let anyone see it until I have something better with which to redeem myself .
