4 Week Measurements

Well, today will complete my 4th week of "Insanity!" I have to say, I'm pretty proud of myself for making it this far, but I'm anxious to see what the next 5 weeks bring. Today we finish the first set of DVDs, next week we do "Core Cardio and Balance" all week for a "recovery," then we start "Max Interval" everything for the next 4 weeks. I'm kinda glad that we're starting new DVDs (even though I haven't "mastered" the ones that we've done thus far), just to change up what we're doing. We're still pretty bad about remembering what is on the DVD's lol. We'll see what some of the "back up" people are wearing and we'll say, "oh, i think this is the one where they look stupid doing..." We had Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs for the last time last night, and I'm glad to see Pure Cardio end (although I enjoy Cardio Abs).

Today was weigh-in and measurement time (I weigh every week, and measure every 2 weeks). So here are the outcomes (total amount lost from the beginning)...
Weight: 8.4 lbs
Waist: 3.5 inches
Hips: 3.5 inches
Butt: 2 inches
Thighs: 1.75 inches on both
Calves: .5 inch on both
Arms: .25 inch on both
For a Grand Total of 14.25 inches over all!!

I only lost like 1 pound this week, so that was a little frustrating, but my measurements made up for it! Brandon weighs exactly the same as he did last week, so he's getting frustrated too. Again, we both know that muscle weighs more than fat, but we want to see that scale go down! Brandon actually just came upstairs with "Big News, Babe!" Then he announced that he is starting to see abs!! YAY!! So maybe he won't be quite so frustrated now! lol I'm definitely seeing a difference in my stomach, as my measurements show. It kinda weird because I don't know that either of us have had a sore stomach since we started, but you can always tell that is has been worked!

We're getting ready to do breakfast with the family (ya know, the weekly Shoney's trip), so I've been looking online to see what I should order...not a diet friendly place. I'm hanging out with friends tonight, so I may eat a few more calories than usual, but I'll enjoy every bite of it!!

I hope everyone is enjoying reading my progress! Seems like I may have recruited a new couple to the Insanity family! Good Luck you guys (you know who you are)!!
