"Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out, till my legs give out, cant shut my mouth..."

I have proudly made it to Day 10 with Shaun T. Whoo. I am still getting my butt kicked but I AM FIGHTING THROUGH IT. I will not just drop and give up easily. Hence Eminem's song Till I Collapse is my new motivational song ( there is a clean version for the record).

Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, cant shut my mouth.

...I will not fall, I will stand tall

What have I learnt so far?


 My body is a machine that just needs to be tuned and retuned. I guess my Daddy was right after all (He said that my body needed an overhaul). I did drills that I never thought I could handle. Pushups: V-pushups, any pushups...I can safely do 4 straight and I DO NOT MEAN GIRLY HALF PUSHUPS. Mountain Climbers and Power Squats...bring it.

I drink my protein shake about an hour before exercising to get me through. Water never tasted better... forget juice. Learning about the things that I put in my body (sayonara white bread) and warm ups and stretches.

I cannot eat 4-5 times a day because it is simply too hard.  However I do eat to meet my calorie count. (My goal is to maintain my weight - I do not want to lose a single pound...it took me years to pass 99lbs so I am hanging on to my 120 lbs.)

If I actually schedule my exercise I get it done. 30-45 minutes is not as impossible as I thought. I simply exercise when my l.o. is taking her second nap.

I am genuinely enjoying exercising...even if it's Insanity. I love the fact that my body is getting a workout and the fact that I am making an effort to nurture it.

Well that's it for now folks. Looking forward to my second fitness test to see how I have improved.
