Day 16

Measurements/Metrics

Weight - 279.6

Exercise - Sweat 1-2

Did the full workout (including abs) without much problem at all.  I wasn't as out of breath as I remember the last time I did it downstairs (what I consider the real times since I can keep at their pace and copy them).  For the abs, I did the first 50 without resting, and then did additional sets with a 5 second rest between.  I definitely think next week will be the start of 3-4 for both routines for me.  That will give me 10 weeks to perfect that before I move to Master Series!!

Feelings

Very happy so far.  Only two weeks in (actually 6.5) and I'll be moving to 3-4.  Scary but invigorating at the same time.  Now I'm even more excited about moving on to Master Series.  When I think about it that I am halfway through it for real (6.5 out of 13 weeks), it feels even better.  I know I have to get the diet aspect under control, and I think that will be easier when the baby is around - less time to worry about eating!!  I'll also be keeping busy with the deck, so more exercise.  I just have to stick with the program as much as I can - except for the 2-3 days at the hospital.  I may still try to get in some exercise when I go to visit Maddie, but probably just playing around with her, nothing structured.
