Completed Working Out Week 1


Today official marks my first complete week of working out. In have worked out 5 of the last seven days. This is absolutely awesome to me since my activity level recently has been WELL BELOW that. I'm not sure if I have lost anything yet because I have not weighed myself and don't plan on doing so until I hit my two week mark (Someone at Curves will measure my progress at Curves on July 29th.)

Even if I haven't lost anything yet I can feel a difference. I have more energy and I'm usually going to bed at a decent hour. I am not on a diet but I am certainly more conscience about what goes in my mouth. I am not buying anymore junk food. I am also less hungry and find myself actually eating a little bit less.
I cannot wait to be able to go into American Eagle and buy a pair of jeans. This is a HUGE deal to me since they only carry up to a size 14 in the store (they sell 16 & 18 online) I haven't been able to buy a pair of jeans instore from American Eagle since I was 19 years old. I haven't been able to order a pair of jeans from them online since about a year before I got pregnant. Today I tried on a pair of jeans I haven't worn since I first got married. Although I was able to pull them all the way up, I could not button them up (they are button flu) even if my life depended on it. Since I don't have a bathroom scale these will be what I will measure myself by.

Yay! Congrats on a whole week of workouts, and kudos to you for having the perseverence to keep it up! I think measuring by pants and not by scale is a wonderful idea, since the scale often doesn't reflect the difference between fat and muscle anyhow.

Can't wait for the picture of you in your new jeans, I know you can do it!
