Pretty sure I could eat a horse...

Phase 2...Week ...Half Way Baby!

Pretty sure I could eat a horse...

Adding the cardio in to the mix has made me ravishing for food. As I was rocking out my cardio tonight at the gym all I could think about was eating. Haha. The only thing I did eat when I got home...well drink...was my protein shake. Man, was it good! I gulped er' down in a few minutes and was completely content after it hit my stomach. Now, being a few hours later...the horse is sounding pretty darn good as well. I will refrain and sleep on the little hunger pangs as I hate the feeling of food sitting in my stomach at night...I will wait and have an amazing breakfast tomorrow. I have earned it!

Being at the half way point, I still cannot seem to notice any changes in particular. I do feel stronger and can tell in my arms that a little sculpting is happening, but a long way to go for me to be where I want to be. This next six weeks I am going to blast through with the highest and best effort that I can give...to maybe prove a point. What is that point? Not sure...maybe to prove to the voices in my head that I CAN have a body transformation. That I CAN be super fit and toned and have muscles. That I CAN look good in a bikini! That I don't have to be all soft and mushy and lumpy and bumpy and gross feeling. If I can do it...so can you. That is what I will prove...that we all can do it. We just need to have more self control. To want the very best for ourselves. The hardest part...is getting to the gym. Is to convince ourselves to workout. After I workout I feel so damn good that I just cannot wait until the next time I get to go do it!

A friend of mine (the lovely Cynthia) has a Nike Fuel band...and she posted last night that she had to hit her calories burned number before she went to bed so she was rocking out planks, jabs, push-ups, sit-ups, jogging in place until she hit that magical number. I LOVE THIS IDEA! It's like having a little accountability partner right on your wrist! I think I will have to look in to one of these little guys this weekend! Maybe we should all get one and post our results to hold us all accountable! That could be fun! What do you think?
