Last nights workout

Yesterday's workout was tuff.. Did Cardio & Resistance from Insanity (DAY3). Can I just say SORENESS! This is how I feel right now... My calves, thighs and arms are sore... But I love the pain.. Its like a drug to me, if you want to put it in those words.. Anyway, I did have to stop on several occasions and catch my breath.. I used my HR monitor to help me keep track of my heart rate.  Today I woke up so sore, can hardly walk but have to push through.. I was thinking of skipping todays Insanity workout to rest but do a little Zumba... Still debating.. I dont exercise until 5pm so it will give me some time to think..

Ill keep posting on my performances.. which makes me ask another question... What would be better to do? Blogging or Video Blogging???

Long time

Its been a long time to blog.. As a matter of fact I had forgotten.. But it's funny because I realized the importance of writting down all my ups and downs of my journey. I know that I can always go back and read what was on my mind that day and reflect upon it.

Ok, so I started Insanity yesterday. I skipped the fit test so went on Day 2 Plyometrics Cardio. BOY That was hard. I was dripping sweat like crazy. LOVED IT!! I think I found a new love.. Sorry Turbo Fire. I do love Turbo Fire but I wanted something new. I wanted something that would kick my butt each time AND I want to wear that shirt that says IVE EARNED IT haha.

Anyway, I am jotting down what I eat using Myfitnesspal app. I am using a MIO Classic watch to see my calories burned for my exercises. I am also replacing a meal with Lean Dessert Protein Shake (Fresh Cinnamon Roll flavor), drinking my vitamins and such!!

My overall goal is to lose 8lbs. I am shooting for 1.5 or 2lbs a week. So in a month I should be at that goal weight.

Ohhh by the way, Day 2 was so freaking cool. I woke up today with a sore butt. My arms are also sore from all those pushups. Guess I can use insanity as a strength training program. BUT I did add some Triceps and Biceps curls. Did 10 sets, 3 reps on each arm.. I want to get rid of those chicken wings LMAO!

Anyway, ill post another update on Day 3. :)
