Day 8....

Feeling much better...

Weigh in was yesterday and I lost 7.6 lbs. I almost had a heart attack. I know it's my workouts because my eating hasn't changed a ton. I have cut back on the protein and of course my carbs are up but wow what a change.

I also lost 5.75 inches.

Day 7 was Fire 45 EZ again and stretch10.
I wouldn't say fire 45 is EZ at all, but it is a great workout. I find I'm sweating before the warm ups over. By the end I'm finding it hard to keep up...lol

Day 8 is Stretch 40 but I think I may just throw in the Lower20...

Have started my son on a bit of a cut back of calories too...He was diagnosed with Aspergers 4 years ago and put on anti-psychotics to help him. Of course they make him gain weight. So with the Aspergers comes the very tight muscles. Which we do stretches and yoga to help. But it's a chore to get him to do cardio. We weighed in together yesterday and hit 190lbs. He's 12 years old...granted he is about 5'6" maybe 5'7". He was allowed a cushion of 30-40 lbs because of the meds. I haven't weighed him in for a while. So he needs to take off about 20-30 lbs. Yikes. emoticon

I really hate winter. It's a hard time to get motivated. He loves his electronics and reading. He sits on his butt for both. We have him on the stationary bike for 45 min -- 3 X a week but it looks like we have to change a few things...

Anyway on to Day 8...
You all have a great day emoticon
