Weight Loss/Exercise Challenge Week 1

I have been inspired to get my body looking and feeling better. After my webinar the other day, it helped motivate me even more. For eating, I started focusing on what I put on my plate. Meat is no longer the main course, but a side dish. We loaded up with fruits and veggies on our last shopping trip. It has been a great experience and I have more energy than I've had in a while. For exercise, I've been doing workouts that are on TV. They are called Classical Stretch. I thought they'd be easy, but I feel it every day I do them. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday two come on while Tuesday and Thursday only one comes on. I do all the workouts that come on those days. On Friday I also walked 4.8 miles. Saturday I walked 2. Today was weigh in and this may be mostly what you hear about.

In the past week I lost 2.4 lbs and am down 6% body fat according to my scale. I lost an inch around my waist, chest and thighs. I lost 3/4 of an inch around my upper arms. I'm down 1/2 inch around my hips and calves. Week 1 was a success and I hope that it continues.
