Kicking Up the Cardio

After 3 solid weeks of attending the Body Flex class 3x/week, I felt like I needed to kick up my cardio. I was hoping I wouldn't have to because the Body Flex class alone exhausts me. But I have been measuring myself a lot and am not seeing the inches moving very fast. Although my strength has increased tremendously. I flex at my husband when he isn't looking.


Today starts my 3rd week in Spin class. It has been game-changing for me. The trainer that teaches my class is the main trainer at the YMCA and she is amazing. Her workouts change every class which keeps the sweat pouring out of me. What I have found helpful is I have started my own meal plan. I plan out every meal & every snack for the week depending on what class I am going to (or not going to). Packing my lunch has always been the sticking point for my snacking throughout the day. Now that I know what my snacks are going to be, I can make sure I space them out throughout the day so that I don't get too hungry at any given time. 



Weighed in today on the YMCA's scale. It's quite different than my digital scale at home. Because the gym scale is similar to my Dr's scale, I decided to start tracking my weight based on YMCA's scale. Very exciting....As of today, I am DOWN 15 pounds since early June!! I didn't believe it when I saw it but it definitely is encouraging to keep going! My husband informed me this morning that he is down 9 pounds just by cleaning up his diet a little. Imagine what he can do when he incorporates exercise! Great things are happening in our home. Working hard to really love the body I have. 






BE THE BEST YOU.
