Well, week one is complete. I elected to take the day off from workouts and let my body reset itself. I felt pretty wasted at the end of last week, and feel quite recovered right now.

It was definitely a challenge. I can see these workouts getting easier and harder at the same time as I push myself more. This is a tough gig without a doubt, but I am on-board with it.

I had some bumps this week, but for the most part, I'm down almost 5 lbs of weight, and most of my measurements have taken a dive already. My waist measurement is always weird on me because I'm easily bloated depending on what sort of food I eat, so it changes pretty easily. Everything else went down, which I'm very happy with.

Areas where I feel I excelled - Workouts. I got all 6 of them done. I didn't allow myself any excuses and I brought it every time. When I couldn't do it in the morning, I did it in the evening. Julie and I worked really hard together and did 1/2 of our week's workouts in tandem. It was great having a partner for these.

Areas that need improvement - Food. I am aware of everything I'm eating... which is a step in the right direction,.... but I need to improve the quality and cut out the garbage. I'm tracking what I put in, and my numbers aren't right where I like them. I need to cut out the damn beer too! Too many occasions, parties, etc. No excuse Tom - you can do it!

Bring it on Tony. Week 2.
