Week 2

4-week goal: lose 10 lbs and be able to do 10 real push-ups

complete by: April 25
Weight lost: 2.2 lbs
Consecutive push-ups: 2

What I have been doing this week:
Diet: Honestly, nothing really.  I haven't really been holding back.  I'm weak.
Exercise:
   Strength:  I didn't actually get around to it at all this week :(
   Cardio:  Monday I went to an outdoor museum that involved a 2-mile walk.  Tuesday I went shopping so I walked all day..  Wednesday I actually did go for a 2-hour walk with my baby. Thursday nothing - it rained.  Friday it stopped raining long enough for me to get in a 30-minute walk. Saturday we walked all around some more exhibits.

How I feel this week:
Fat.  I feel like I don't fit into anything.  I don't like my clothes but I can't really afford a whole new wardrobe.  Plus, I don't really want one, because I want to fit into the clothes I already have.

What I want to change about my body:
1. My protruding waistline.
2. My fat arms.
3. My double chin.

What I like about my body:
1. I'm getting more flexible.
2. I'm starting to feel like I have more energy.
3. My skin is getting darker from the increased sun exposure.

This was Saturday at the Civil War event we went to.  This outfit is not flattering at all.  What was I thinking?  It shows almost all of my imperfections.  Gross.
