Today I:
Made bed.
Emptied dishwasher (thanks to hubby starting it last night, so now I’m back on rhythm).
Swept kitchen.
Cleaned kitchen.
Mopped kitchen (since it’s Thursday).
Did the very bad horrible 30 Day Shred DVD.
Yesterday, I wimped out and didn’t do it. I was gone all day and then didn’t feel like getting sweaty before church, and then didn’t get out of music rehearsal until after 9:30. THEN, hubby and I had to watch the season premiere of Survivor. I do have priorities people!
I’ve always taken Wednesdays off when it comes to working out. I’ve felt justified. But with this being a 30 day challenge, I thought I should do all thirty days. I’m not giving up, and I’ll try to look for a way to work it out next Wed.
But I did do it today. Even though it meant being late for something, I was determined to get it done.
As for the feeling thinner, I’m not actually thinner. I haven’t lost even a pound, and my clothes don’t feel any better. However, working out reminds me that I actually have ab muscles. When I can feel that they really do exist (because they’re so sore), I’m much more likely to stand up taller and hold them in.
Standing up taller and holding in your stomach . . . makes you feel – and look – thinner.
Good for you, hanging in there.
