Update: Operation Insanity (Week 2)

Today marks the beginning of week 2 for my Insanity workout.  I am very proud of myself for continuing on and pushing myself to work harder.  Looking back at my week 1 pictures, I already see results.  My waist has gotten a bit smaller and I noticed my stomach area is a little flatter. Also, everything else (arms, legs, butt) are much more toned.  

Last week (week 1) was tough.  My entire body, especially my legs/calves were very sore.  It made me walk awkwardly but I pushed through and kept up with my daily sessions.  Eventually on day 4 (cardio recovery) my legs no longer ached.  The workouts are all about 30-45 minutes long.  At first, I thought that was long but it really goes by quick.  Whenever I workout, I will always wear just a sports bra and pants/shorts and do my exercises in front of a mirror.  Being able to see myself in the mirror allows me to do the exercises correctly and keeps me motivated, especially when I see my tummy fat giggle!  

To keep track of my progress, I will use a tape measure instead of depending on the scale.  My week 2 measurements are:  (Hopefully I did the measurements correct)

• Bust: 33.5 in
• Chest: 29 in
• Waist: 28 in
• Hips: 33 in
• Thighs: 21.5 in
• Calves: 13.5 in
• Upper arm: 10.5 in
• Forearm: 9.5 in

With my face

I promise I do not always workout with makeup, but I just got home from the mall and figured I will just take my "face" off when I take a shower after my Insanity session.

Stay tuned for next weeks update/results!
