Zumba Day 7

This is my 50th post! Go me!

I just finished Zumba Day 7 of their 10-day Weight Loss program, and I feel awesome! Yesterday's workout left me feeling SO sore today, my abs and back hurt something fierce, and my legs feel so heavy!

But I did the 50 minute Cardio Party DVD and I rocked it as best I could!

And I will continue to push myself to not skip workouts - they don't get boring, and they're SO fun. Tomorrow is a designated rest day, and I may actually give myself a rest. If I feel up to it, I will try out the 20-minute Express routine, because I am in LOVE with the results I'm seeing!

The last time I weighed myself on my Mom's scale at her studio, which was six weeks ago, it said I weighed 185.5 which was an amazing number considering it said I weighed 191 only two weeks before that. Today, I weighed myself again.

180!!! I'm so excited! Eleven pounds GONE in 8 weeks, and I vow to NEVER put that weight back on! I'm almost down in the 170's again! I haven't been there in over two years!

My plan is to continue choosing healthy meals, eating salads and vegetables without dressings, drinking water, and nothing high in (empty) calories, avoiding sweets and salty snacks, and picking only whole grains and other complex carbs.

I definitely don't think I'll be down to my original goal of 165 by March 11, but I am excited to be near 175 by then!
