Time to measure up!!

Today I managed to run twice, once in the morning at 6:30 AM and again this evening around 7 PM. A total of around 5 miles. I can't believe how much I have missed running outside in the early mornings. This morning when I stepped outside, it was light out but still so quiet and peaceful. There are a few people out walking dogs at that time, but mostly its just *quiet*. I love it. I felt emotional, like you feel when you suddenly realize that you have missed something in a huge way but you didn't really realize how much. It felt so good. Sweaty, but good.

Tonight I completed two new videos. I have to say I LOVE Fitness Blender. They have such great little work outs for that "extra" workout you might want to squeak in.

I have never tried a hiit work out before, does it ever make you sweat! loved it. I really like that many of their videos also have a count down feature on them.

Tonight is also my check in where I measure my thighs and butt to see if there is any difference. To be honest, I didn't think I would see any difference just one week in, but according to the measuring tape, there is!!!

Last Monday my left thigh around the thickest part up top was 21.25 inches and this week it is 21!
Right thigh was 21 and this week its 20.75! and my butt, around the thickest part is up .25 of an inch as well!! (I was hoping for growth in the butt area as I want a round bum!)
I am super excited to see change!!!

Today's fitbit is total is 14,322 steps so far (I am about to go to bed!)

I am really excited about my progress so far. If I can only cut back on the chocolate I eat each day I bet I could make faster progress...but my willpower is so low right now. Tomorrow is a new day! Speaking of which, it is 10:30 PM and I have a 4:30 AM wake up time to get to the gym....YAWN! I better go stretch more and then get to bed!
