Holy Cow!

Hey Gang,

So thanks to the Phillies game I was unable to get in my afternoon work out yesterday. I know my priorities probably are a little out of whack, but I did push play with Ab Burner and AM Yoga as well as 30 push ups in the morning. So I didn't feel super guilty about not working out in the afternoon.

Woke up to a nice surprise this morning. As per usual the alarm sounded at 6:00 AM and I did not press snooze. So I dragged myself out of bed and went down stairs to push play with my normal routine. Allie started back to work on Monday, so it is now my job to make sure she is awake before I head down stairs. Because of the new job and our hectic schedule she is unable to work out, but she is getting exercise walking to and from the train station on a daily basis. We'll slowly work exercise back into her routine after she adapts to her new schedule.

Anyway so after my normal morning routine I stepped on the scale and I was pleasantly surprised by the number on the display. 235 pounds! I couldn't believe it myself. So I stepped off the scale and let it reset and then stepped back on. 235 pounds again! Seeing that number definitely add a bounce to my step today. This means I am down roughly 55 pounds since I started My Lifestyle Change back in 2005, 25 pounds since I started with Beachbody in March of 2008 and 9.5 pounds since I started Round 2 of ChaLEAN Extreme.

Now admittedly I have not been pushing play the last week or so as hard as I would have liked, but my eating has been very good. I'm not keeping track of my calories as close as I should be, but I have been doing this for 4 years and I know I'm coming in right where I need to be. I just wanted to point out that if you slip up on working out, but you are still eating right you can still lose weight. You can still change your body, you just have to be willing to make the necessary changes to your life.

Until next time... Make it a GREAT day!
