6 days down...

...24 to go! Today I did awesome with the strength training portions of the "Shred"! On two of the exercises that involve legs & arms, I had been unable to keep my arms going the entire time. But today, I was able to on both! Yay! So that is already a pretty big improvement in just a short amount of time. I'm still struggling with the first two minutes of cardio--that involves 30 seconds of jumping jacks, 30 seconds of "jump rope", then another 30 seconds of each. I can do the first minute just fine, but the second minute i usually end up just jogging in place because my jumping jacks and jump rope moves end up just being really floppy and sloppy. So I am hoping I can get to the point where I can do the full two minutes without having to just jog to keep moving.
I'm contemplating moving up to Level Two after ten days is up, and then move up to Level Three for the last ten days. I guess I will see how things are looking when i weigh & measure myself on Thursday!
I have class tonight from 7-9, so I am thinking of eating an early dinner (like @ 4:00) and then around 6:00, go ahead and do the weight loss yoga again. If I'm going to even think about getting into that dress, I need to work out twice a day, every day...
Even after the wedding, I'm going to keep it up. My goal is to be down to 140lbs by the time I graduate with my MLIS--which gives me until August of 2010. Since that's over a year away, it's completely doable. I'll just have to figure out how to maintain it once I get to it!
