Days Three and Four!

Day three turned out be a day of rest.  Barely 5 hours of sleep the night before and the only exercise I had enough energy for was to lower myself into a hot bath.  I was actually asleep by 8 but I read somewhere that you burn calories when getting some shut eye.  I'll have to see what Regina says about it.

Day four was much more productive!  I made it through 2 rotations of my my day one exercise program on my own.  It was a challenge to do it correctly but I kept hearing Regina say "keep your stomach in"!

Quick note: I had to practice some yogic patience though as some gentleman in the gym kept clearing his throat in the worst of ways.  Over and over and over.  Every time I moved away he seemed to get on a machine close to where I was set up.  How can a person be so unaware of their behavior? But I digress.

I finished by burning 226 calories on the elliptical machine in less than 30 minutes (another personal milestone)  and left  to go to the grocery store the color of a lobster.  Of course I saw someone I know!

Tonight I get my measurements taken.  Apparently this is done so you can celebrate the decreases as you go along.  I am trying hard not to think of this as my being the "before" picture right now.  I hope Regina has some cheerleading left in her tonight!
