Colorado treated me right

Just a quick update. I was in Colorado for the last 6 days and while I didn't do any proper training besides a few push-up and band work, I lost weight. The altitude and playing in the snow did the trick.

Plans for this week:

Wednesday light run
Thurday Yoga
Friday TRAINING WITH MICHELLE
Saturday step class
Sunday TRAINING WITH MICHELLE

NEW GOAL!!

When my first daughter was about 18 months old my friend Michelle convinced me to do this crazy program. I dieted and trained with her and about 5 others for 8 weeks. At the end of the 8 weeks, I was in an exercise DVD that was the home version of everything we had been doing in the gym. Here's the DVD http://www.breakthrufitness.com/vids/BTF9102.html and here's my before and after from the early stuff http://www.breakthrufitness.com/testimonials.html. Well like one week after I shot the DVD, I got pregnant with my second child. I lost a good amount of that weight but still have like 20 pounds to drop.

A couple days ago Michelle contacted me because she is creating a new program called PEAK 10. It is going to be insane challenge workouts like the Insanity DVD series. I am so not in great shape but she thinks it might be great for people to see me quickly lose that last 20 pounds. So the next 8 weeks will be BRUTAL. Six workouts with trainers every week, an exerspy armband, constant nutrition observation, meeting with a lifecoach and yes I will be in another DVD in 8 weeks.

Wish me luck. A race with Jay would have been easier.

Quick Status update

Yikes. I am supposed to run a 5k in like 3 weeks. I know for most of you not much but guess how many times I ran last week? Zero.

This week I ran yesterday and that has been it, but I figured out a way to do it in the morning that rocks. My kid will ride her bike while I run next to her and she is getting fast so I have to totally run to keep up. Nice to have a training partner.
