I mentioned last year about my newest obsession with all natural foods. It has been great! we made a complete crossover at the start of October and since then I have lost 50lbs! I wasn't even trying! I feel great. I still have about 30-40 left to lose but I think that I will lose that pretty easy.
I have really gotten into bodybuilding. Mostly what I do now is using my own body weight and some light weights, not exceeding 20lbs. I do P90X and think it is great.. I am pleased to find that I am keeping up with some of their numbers and I like that it is done in minutes rather than on a "magic number" that is supposed to make you over. I am also doing a lot of HIIT by doing sprints and then walks... at a pace of about 30/60.. I need to find my HRM and wear it again. I am doing yoga and I am doing good old fashioned stuff like sit-ups and jumping jacks. I also get out there on the giant trampoline and bounce around too--- that is where the real fun is.
It is really nice that people comment to me all the time about how great I look and even on some of the fitness related pages that I am on women have messaged me and said wonderful things and asked me questions and I was able to answer them and they have told me I should teach other women... it is very motivating. I am flattered. I am also confused because I still have so much weight to lose and I still feel so big.
The semester is coming to a close I didn't do as well as I had hoped but I am doing pretty good. Next semester will be better. I will come back refreshed and ready. I am taking the semester off and just going to hang out. We had a lot of yard work done this year and are getting a pool again, I am really excited about that. We are also having the land tilled and doing a garden. I am really excited about that! It will be great to teach the boys a good work ethic, keep them busy during the summer and also to show them to how food should be grown, it will make them appreciate it and want to enjoy the product of their efforts.
Guess that is it for now I have to go read a book for my criminal justice class... the premises is on rehabilitation of an inmate, I am anxious to see what it says. I went ahead and got out several books about the criminal justice system just for fun reading.. I really can't wait until summer.. just me, the kids, bible study, a garden, books... pure lazy R&R
