24thAugust
Veggie Day.. Finally went down!
Okay.. well.. this morning I woke up and I felt.. smaller.
I’m starting to keep track on inches.. just around my waist and hips..
My stomach felt smaller so I checked.. and I’m at 28 inches.. I lost an inch since 2 days ago when I measured.
My hips.. around the widest part I guess is 40 inches. Not bad.. proportionally.. very healthy.
I looked up this article about waist-hip proportion and .7 is the ideal proportion (what I am right now) so I’m glad about that.
Anyway so I weighed myself and I’m 146! woot woot.
It’s more motivation to keep going.. also I bought sugar-free candy last night to keep my cravings at bay.
I’m happy
I’m hoping.. to lose at least another two pounds by the end of august.. I’m pretty certain I can do so if I just continue on with no problems~!
I’ll update later on my workout.

Update:
I took advantage of my parents being away dropping my brother off (he’s 2 hours away) and I went into the living room to do the callanetics (there’s a rug in the living room).
Oh man.. so I have the 10 hour callanetics dvd.. and wow. It took me about.. an hour n 40 minutes.. but I kept stopping and watching, and making sure I had the right form. I almost quit.. but I realized.. what’s the rush? I can take my time, I don’t have any other obligations.. so I took my time and watched it and did the whole dvd..
My legs are sore.. lol muscles I never felt sore about before and yes they feel.. deep. I mean.. it’s not the usual muscles. It’s a great feeling! My stomach isn’t that sore.. I think because the stomach exercises are very similar to the Pilates ones I’ve done before.. BUT.. it was still tough when I did it so.. I’ll probably feel it tomorrow.
So.. then I took a shower and it was around 5:30 (within half n hour of finishing the workout) that I cooked a small bowl of stir-fry, had a little bit of a can of V8 juice, and then washed it all down with the fruit/veggie juice I bought from Costco.. I think it’s called.. Naked organic or something? So meal-wise, very good.
I’m proud of myself.. I want to do some cardio soon (i’m waiting for my hair to fully air-dry.. I’m trying to see how my hair would look air-dried, conditioned, with no mousse or gel). I spritzed some frizz-ease spray but still a lot less product than I usually use.
Anyway so.. I’m going to do some cardio in.. maybe half an hour. Overall, I’m proud of myself.
I’ll do the DVD again later this week.. maybe on Thursday or so.
I’m really happy though and proud of myself for getting through the day and just being very healthy!
It’s funny, the cleaning the room thing really really works and has helped me out a lot. It’s EASY to stay on track and stay focused if you apply the same mentality to everything!
Anyway, I’ll update on cardio later.
