I'm Still Here, Although I'm Crawling.

Hey guys, how's it going? I just thought that I would give a quick update as to how the work out thing is going.

Well, I'm still alive obviously, either that or my ghost is typing this for me. Last week all I did was the fit test of the Insanity work out along with Hip Hop Abs. I didn't feel ready to actually begin the real Insanity work out. It scared me LOL. Well that and my knees took a beating. There really is a lot of jumping in this work out.

I have been eating a diet that goes with the workout, well rather using it as a guideline for my meals. I never thought that eating five small meals would be a good idea, but together with the work outs and the diet which isn't really a diet...I have lost 8 lbs in one week. Yeah me!!!! I have been trying to loose weight since the first of the year, and nothing has worked. I have to say that my small meals aren't really all that same either. I am never hungry unless I let too much time go between meals. I have, for the most part only had whole foods to eat. Easy peasy. Okay, so it hasn't been that easy, I really need me some sugar!!!! That has been hard, and I didn't really eat that much sugar to begin with.

So today I went and tried the Plyometric Cardio Circuit. All I can say is UGH! I guess I did about half of the work out, the other  half spent gasping for breath. Okay, not really, but I was panting and the rest of the time I was just taking breaks because I couldn't go on anymore. This work out is named correctly, it was Insanity. I have found that I just need to take things at my own speed, and it seems to be working. 

While I still don't like working out, or being all hot and sweaty, I do like the fact that it is making me feel better. I just can't argue with that one.
