Good Body Buddies

As much as I'd like to have dramatic results to brag about, I don't. Here's my progress and my assessment.

In the last two weeks, I've varied between 158 to 160, so, No Pounds Off (yet).

I've lost 1.5 inches. Before you high five me, know this: I lost an inch in my boobs. So now I can hook my bra on the third set of hooks if I want to do that. The extra half inch is at my waist. I think I've lost bloat because my diet has become almost gluten free.

I'm stronger and doing more. Sylvia and I are working a plan that was initially difficult to understand and get the form right. We're in the swing of it now. And, we have upped the difficulty level of every exercise in Plan A and Plan B.

When we down and back up Sylvia's hill, I do a lot better. Now that we repeat this twice, I have to push myself hard to stay the pace back up the hill the second time.

I might need a class to push my cardio limits.Cardio is my weak point. I don't like it. I don't like losing my breath and sweating much. Although, I do remember doing Tai-Bo class with Georgia one year and loving it. High energy instructor, music, large and energized group. Maybe I need to work in a gym membership again to get sweaty in a group and have an instructor push my limits with me.

My partner, Dennis, reminds me that I might have to think of this shaping-up-healthier project as a job.
