RE: Caution!...My1stPosting

Way to go! If you are consistent with tae bo you will continue to see the

changes, they may be subtle from day to day, but more obvious as the months role

by. Just be kind when you look at yourself. In his book, says the first

thing you should do when you look in the mirror is to smile at what you see, not

to start judging. I have been doing 5 days a week and am aiming for 6. The main

problem for me is just finding that 6th day with consistency...keep up the good

work. Delana.

Subject: Caution!...My1stPosting

This is my first posting. I've been sort of sitting back seeing how this all

works, not really wanting to bother anybody. But I like that I'm sort of

reporting to someone, and being held accountable, because besides you all,

nobody knows whether I work out or not. So, I'm in my 3rd week " ever " , and I'm

amazed at the differences I see in my body. Anybody that's ever been overweight

can understand the weird forms of measurement I use. Like, when I look down the

side of my body I can't see my fat roll sticking out without leaning over now.

Or maybe that's just me. Or when I bend forward the gap just above the fat

between my thighs is bigger. And when I pinch my fat roll it doesn't fill the

space between my Index finger and my thumb anymore. Or maybe you relate with a

more normal one, which is that I actually have triceps and biceps now. I would

really like to stop this thing that I do, that sort of disappoints me, and

sometimes excites me: Am I the only one, or does everybody look at themselves

in the mirror front and back with an extra hand mirror after every workout? I

know that it's ridiculous, and I want to stop, but I can't. I don't expect a

dramatic difference everyday, but I hope for one. I really did not want to write

this much, especially after I saw all of the short postings. Forgive me, but my

husband is in Iraq, and I have a 16 month old son, so anytime I come into

contact with someone over 13 I have to have as much adult conversation as

possible. So, today I did the Cardio Live in the Bootcamp series, I have never

followed the calendar that came with it, but I'm doing pretty well. I've done

one tape at least 5 days a week, I'm shooting for 6. Is that overdoing it? I

read that you should rest to let muscle build? Thank you all for reading.
