Proof in the belt

Well, the neighbor's neice had invited me to her Quinceañera. So I had to go cowgirl style and I jave a rhinestone belt I haven't worn in 2 yrs. I was surprised! I had to go 3 more holes over!

There are no more holes left on the belt but there is room to put another hole when needed!

Oh! And where you see my finger is the original hole I have used.

Bring It!

So with my new goals changing from back/hip strengthening to reducing my risk of diabetes, i have a new list.

1). Waist size under 35 and continue to get smaller

2). Reduce fasting glucose from 95 to below 85

3). Reduce belly fat

4). Increase my BMR & RMR

( basic and restong metabolic rate)

5). Get my BMI out of the obese down past the overweight range

This week started as an increase to going back to see Timothy Parravano once a week.

His promise to me is that if I come to training and leave everything on the floor, that those goals are doable, promise.

So, today, I blew wvrything out of the water. I went one or two more than he asked and sometimes more. I screamed baked goods by the time I got to the legs ag 734#s. He wanted 6 on each side for the waist twist, I did seven. Last rep on biceps, i growled and did two more. Tbat is how my whole work out went.

I so brought my game! I was shakey for 3 hrs afterwards. The next two days will be painful but it will be worth it.

  Brian will hold me accountable to do a 2 min. horse stance, a 2 min. Traditional plank, a 1 min. horse stance, and finally a 1 min straight arm plank, three times a week.

First week I started with Timothy followed by me today.

Groan!

Well, last week, my workout was rescheduled for Fri.

So I still had enough days to recover before I worked out today.

Today, Tim worked me out hard.

He is taking a 2 week motorcycle trip, so he wanted to make sure I had a good lasting workout.

Mission accomplished.

I feel like every last drop was squeezed out of me.

I'll definitely feel sore next week.

I'm going roller skating tonight and that will be my reward for my workout.

I have been thinking about packing a bathing suit and towel and going to Zilker after work at least once a week to swim in Barton Springs.

New week, smaller me & more energy!

Well except for my thighs & neck, I am approx. 1/4" smaller (biceps, waist, chest/pec, hips)
Tim Parravano increased my weight this week and also tried out a new machine for the upper back. I definitely tried to squeezed to "hold the pencil" in the middle of my back. As I sit in my car typing this entry, I can feel the burn across my shoulder blades. I am very happy with the burn.
I did throw out a bra last week but I am going to wait a few weeks before I go and get fitted for new ones. The sport bras will have to do for now.
