Get fit/Get healthy week 7&8

BLA BLA BLA!!!! i hate even posting about this cuz i never have any results for you. i missed last week.. but for something fun, and to document my hard work.. here are some sweaty pics from the first 15 min of doing insanity :)
yep. 15 minutes guys. and thats just the warm up!

Then, when im done, i fall on the floor and die.
DIE PEOPLE!
ive talked about this before but im gonna say it again. I hate when i hear people say "i dont have time to workout" Well do you have time to watch american idol? Do you have time to take 30 min showers? Do you have time to sleep longer than 8hrs a night?
Loosing weight is all about sacrifice. You have to work hard for what you want.
Put down the doughnuts and chips that offer you NO nutritional value and eat a banana, some carrots with hummus. Drink water instead of soda. Add crystal light if you hate water.
Instead of taking a 30 min shower, take a 15 min shower and get in a simple 15 min workout. Do sit ups/push ups before bed. Every effort counts. Wake up a little earlier.

I work out at night when the family is in bed. On the days that i work i get home at 9:30pm and need to be in bed by 10:15pm to get a full 8hrs sleep at night (get up at 6:15am to babysit). And my workouts are about 45 min-1 hour long. So yea im rushing and squeezing workouts in but i do it. I work out 6 days a week doing INSANITY. NOT ONLY do i do this.. i do this with a thyroid problem and have not lost any weight in almost 6 months. Obviously the pictures prove i get results but its hard to stay motivated when the scale doesnt move in so long. (ps i go to a specialist in june). Bottom line, working out makes me feel good. i feel strong. i sleep good. im so happy. i just love it :)

"Progress pics from insanity"


yea its embarrasing to show the "before" and i know people can laugh at me and poke fun but guess what.. obviously im not worried about it hense why i post it and you can FO :) i gained 60 pounds when i was pregnant due to high blood pressure and i work hard. With my thyroid issue i have to work even harder.

and i may not be loosing weight.. but holy muscle tone that i have never had before in my life!



haha dont mind my baby arms.. i just have to point out i wasn't even flexing my arms lol.


WOOT WOOT!

this is very inspiring! I gained 50 pounds with my 1st child and never lost any of it:( I'm SICK of feeling/looking like this! I'm gonna start a workout routine and take before/after pics. That way I can SEE my motivation take place:)

ps-keep up the good work!

pss-you made me laugh when you "died" lmao:)

You week 8 pics look really really good!!! The two-week difference is crazy. I know it must be frustrating with the thyroid problems, but how you look is much more important than a number on a scale-and you look really good!!! great job chick!!

Don't you love Insanity! I love hearing about your workouts and your motivation... since I can't do any type of workout right now! I tore my ACL 2 months ago and had surgery a month ago. I'm down for the count for 6 months!

I am a Turbo Kick instructor and it has royaly sucked not being able to workout! After this time of being laid up for months, I'm getting back to TK and buying Insanity the Asylum!

I love that you post before and afters! Makes me want to do the same thing with my gut and love handles that I'm working on. Maybe it would keep me more motivated knowing I have to put up a new picture each week.

Keep up the great job! I definitely see results. Love the pictures & how 'real' this post is (no one wants to see skinny fit women showing how to lose weight, just not believable lol).
