Stayin in it

 I started the strength workout on my Look better Naked DVD. It might be a little easier if the weights I had to work with weren't eight pounds each!!! That makes things slightly more difficult but it also makes me feel slightly more accomplished! It's only day two for the  strength workout! I think tomorrow I'll do it again and also get in a hip hop abs workout with Shawn T!!!! Let's keep it up!! Now all I need to do is improve my eating habits and a flat tummy can be somewhere in the near future!! : D

New Workout DVD

 I have found a new workout DVD that is KICKING. MY. BUTT! It's called Look Better Naked and it is a workout done by Womenshealth to help women get into shape and get the body they have always wanted. The trainer is Jessica Smith and she is incredible! She started into fitness because she was overweight and unhappy like a lot of us are and she started working out 10 minutes at a time and then 15 and then 20 and then so on and so forth. It is truly inspiring to see where she is now and think that not long ago she was going through the same struggles that I am. It just takes time, discipline and an "I want this" attitude. Come on Taylor. Let's get slim for summer!!!

Finding out my weakness

 So I have found that my muscles and limbs are not keeping up with my mind. I wan't to keep going and going and going but my muscles start screaming after about an hour of exercise. It frustrates me so much that I am not at the point yet where I have enough stamina and strength to do a two hour workout. I know that is my own fault because I haven't exercised like I used to and so most of my muscle strength was lost over time but argh! I just wanna go go go and meet my goal! I need to let go of the fantasy that jumping back into exercise is cake because wow it so is not. It might also help if I had a safer place to run, one that I didn't have to drive to. I need to take it one day at a time I guess and just slowly start making my routines longer and harder. It's the only way I will get to my weight in time! June 1st, 130 pounds! Let's make it happen!!
