I should have reported my progress before but things have been pretty hectic around here! I was pleasantly surprised when I took my 30 day progress pictures/measurements that there is a marked improvement, especially in my waist, where I needed an improvement badly after 3 giant babies born via c-section. Well, and to be honest, excess weight. lol But still, overall I lost 6.25", with 2.25" off that coming off of my waist. I was shocked! I really didn't expect to see much of a change because the reflection in the mirror looked pretty much the same to me. I knew I was stronger because I could look back on my progress as I wrote down my weights lifted each week so I knew it wasn't a waste of time, but I was really surprised at the changes that took place when I compared pictures and #'s! Meanwhile, my calf muscles are killer and I'm ridiculously proud of them.

Push is going well so far. I have subbed in running for the ChaLean cardio days, but still do recharge or abs on the specified cardio days and am only really taking one rest day because I play softball on one of my "rest" days too. I'm surprising myself with how heavy I can go and am wondering if my 25 lbs worth of adjustable dumbbells is going to see me to the end of Push. I sort of think not.
