So, here are week 2 results. I am kinda of shocked to realize that I have lost over 10 inches over all, but that is all over my body. The biggest shock is that my abdomen is 4 inches smaller in circumference. Really? Why don’t my pants fit better? Oh yeah, my hips are… 1/2 down. That’s like, Um, nothing.
But, I started working on the actual workout, which runs 16 minutes, a bit faster than the instructional video. I am currently ripping the instructional video to ipod format so can put it on my blackberry and have it for travel. Easier than remembering the DVD.
My goal is to fit into my smaller clothes. You know, the pants and shorts I USED to fit into. Even after having Luna? Yeah.. wish me luck on that!
I went to TJ Maxx and got a natural bristle brush and I started the dry brushing stuff today. Again, I have NO scientific evidence that this will work. We will simply have to wait and see. Sigh. I hate that.
I do feel like I have a little more energy, but I am not sure if that is real or not. It is such a difficult thing to quantify. I’ll have to stick to qualitative for now. I have been sleeping better, but it does help not to have poison ivy or lack of breathing waking one up.
So, we wait and see…
