Today was a cardio day. I did 4 - 30 second surges of elliptical, jumping jacks, butt kicks, jump squats. I was hurting a bit during the squats. I slept in a bit other wise I would have gone for a run. I had our 9 month old down stairs with me and he kept laughing at me while I was jumping around. Now I'm hanging out with my children drinking our chocolate shakes eating green apples. Well, they are eating the apple, I'm eating the skin. Our 3 year old wants to eat hers the same way as the 9 month old. Silly girl.
My scale still isn't moving. I'm a little bummed but at the same time I know I haven't been as strict as I should be. I had a couple chip ahoy cookies at my parents last night. I think if I have a true, realistic goal I'll be less tempted to cheat or at least more motivation not to cheat. I was watching a video copy of a seminar by Dr. Pompa, the guy who helped design this program I'm following, and he was saying that it takes 5 days for your body to stop craving sugar. The first 5 days are the hardest. Even if you have just a little sugar on a cheat day you will crave for the next 5 days. Sugar is an all or nothing thing that needs to be cut out when I make the full plunge.
Until next time, keep up the hard work and you will be at your goal weight/size before you know it. Just take it one day at a time.
