Hey guys. Last Thursday I shared a couple challenges I was working on this month. One for Abs, and the other one is a squat challenge. I started the squat challenge a day before the ab' challenge. I am on day 8 of squats (a rest day) and day 7 on the ab challenge.
The first few days I was so sore, as with any new exercise program.I usually give up. I stuck with it. I am so very proud of myself. I feel the 'pain' still but it isn't unbearable. I can sit on the toilet without crying now, LOL.
The abs challenge is getting tougher as well. This comes from a girl who is considered obese. I step on the Wii fit, and the little Mii goes "ooh that's obese' UGH! I want to smack it! I don't think I look obese. But any who, back to my topic....I'm fat. Its hard to exercise. I have a big gut. I showed you, so sit ups are hard. But I am pushing through them. Getting them done. And feeling good about myself in the meantime.
I have a Jillian Micheals DVD that I want to add in to my day, or every other day. (or every FOUR days or more, she kills me!) (Its the 30 day shred). But I am being a wimp. I think I will wait until I am two week into both challenges to start the DVD. (or not)
So that's my update. Are any of you doing these challenges?

Abs, Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Calves, & Glutes oh my!
You've prob seen those 30 day challenges floating around on FB...
Well I have signed up for TWO.
An abs one:
Looks easy enough right....(well at least day one does/did)
And also a squats one:
I started the squat challenge a day ahead of the abs challenge.
Now next you will find my before pictures. This is taking me alot of pride to post them here. ALOT.
I'm sore, it's hard to get up from a sitting position, heck....its hard to sit on the toilet even! My thighs burn like hell! No pain no gain, right? So there I bared it all for ya. Hopefully at the end of this torture I will look better and feel better about myself.
Oh I am also 'dieting', Watching what I eat, and how much I eat. I am drinking half my body weight in ounces of water a day (that's 115 ounces, alotta H2O). I took measurements as well and will share those at the very end.
See you in 29 days for results!
Pray for strength, will power, and motivation to continue for me.
