Day 1 done!

Not bad.  I hate push ups, but that's because my arms are deplorably weak.  Jumping rope is pretty decent and will likely grow on me.  The thing for me will be carving out the time to exercise.  I'm thinking I'll need to do this before work (while kiddo and hubby are asleep) or just after work (kiddo still in daycare).

The diet is going well.  Ian and I radically revamped our diet when we decided to do the PCP almost a month ago.  Now that I'm eating fresh foods, veggies, and fruits, I find I crave them.  If I have fast food, I generally regret it - makes my tummy mad and my brain sluggish.

I know this will get harder as it goes along, but I'm feeling good about it.  Up to the challenge, shall we say?

  1. The exercise you hate will be the exercise that makes you REAL!

  2. Day one, way to go. The exercises ramp up slowly, so you'll get a chance to build your arm strength. If you can make it work, I'm a believer in morning workouts. Then they're done and you can mark it off and not think about it until you wake up the next day. Good luck!

  3. I hear you on the pushups, Susan. And they're even worse with sore arms! Sounds like you guys made great early changes to your diet - awesome!

  4. Early morning workouts! I find that they really set the tone for the rest of the day.

  5. Hur. Ian just showed me that I had comments last night. Thanks for the encouragement, Kim and Patrick! I want to switch to morning exercises, but I want my morning snuggles with my kiddo!
