I have been sooo busy lately and I have not been able to keep up with my journal but I think thats ok cause no one reads this anyway! I have done pretty good not eating out as often and when i do its been a salad. I feel myself shrinking slowly and my husband says he can see it.
I wish I could see it but it doesnt matter any weight loss or shrinking is better than nothing!

Callanetics
I wanted to write a quick review about Callanetics. I have just bought this DVD and it is AWESOME! Its basic ballet and what i assume to be Yoga moves but together in a great 60 minute workout.
The first time I tried it I was in love, some of the moves are hard but most are simple and work muscles that you didnt even know you had. The streching is great. The 60 minutes flew by and I swear it only felt like 20 minutes. You are constantly relaxed and you dont feel strained at all. When I got up I was sore! Parts of my legs hurt that I have never felt before. This is a great workout and I would recommend it for anyone! I bought the first one from the 80's and I have read that its one of the best ones.
Callan Pinckney is the instructor and creator of Callanetics and she is very soft spoken and a pleasure to have as an instructor. She states in the beginning she is a 46 yr old woman and she doesnt even look it and has a GREAT body! I love this product and I think if you are looking for something to add to your workout to tone your body this is it!
I planned on doing it on my days off from the eliptical and I have found myself doing it everyday not for the results but because it makes me feel really good afterward! Awesome product BUY IT TODAY!

Been Soooo Good!
So I am way proud of myself we have been eating in every night and I havent been eating a lot at all!
I have also been snacking throughout my day so I am not soooo starving at night. I have been doing breakfast, snack, small lunch (im not that hungry then), snack, dinner, snack... I have also not been eating late which is a total miracle!
I have been rotating my eliptical with my Taebo and Im feeling pretty good! Wow sooo proud of myself now all I have to do is stick to it and maybe i can slim down... think i can do it?? would be much better if someone would join me on the adventure...

Orbitrak Elite
Ok so for Xmas I bought myself the Orbitrek Elite which is basically an elipitical but you stand more upright like riding a bike without the seat... this machine is pretty good you have a tension on it (like a stationary bike) that you turn and burn (thats what they call it!).
I like this workout and I have never sweated more in my life. The video is a little boring but I recommend you do it to know exactly what this machine is capable of and to get the best use out of it. I do a serious of levels for a few minutes then rest and then do it harder, the rest etc.
I feel my heart working at more than one level and I sweat like nobodies business. I do this for about an hour every day. I have just incorporated Taebo into my work out routine so I think every other day I will only do about 45 mintues or so. So I do recommend this product, it cost be about 240.00 and I got to test it out for 6 weeks without paying which I thought was pretty cool. So if you are interested in an eliptical and dont want to spend 1000.00 then I would suggest this product!

Taebo Boot Camp
So the other day I purchased Taebo Boot Camp and I must say it was a HARD workout. The Mission one was basic teaching you the basic taebo moves using a resistance band which really works, today I did Mission Two called Maximum Power and i about died!
This is a tough workout but I can see how you can get the results you want quickly! Billy Blanks words every muscle in your arms, shoulders, leg while tighting the stomach. I will say I do not think it is for beginners but I have done Taebo before and he has others that would be better to start with. I have used Taebo for years and I am far from pro but I know what the moves are and adding the band is 10 times harder!
I would totally recommend this to anyone looking to slim down, you get cardio and full body sculpting, my entire body hurts right now and thats good! All my muscles are tight and I know this is a workout for me to do every other day! I will stick to my eliptical on other days!

Daily Journal
So I am one day late with this one but here we go!
I woke up really early this morning in hopes to get into a different schedule and the day was pretty good.
1. Bowl of Oatmeal
2. veggan chicken sandwich for lunch
3. 2 peices of licorice
4. turkey burger for dinner with a handful of tater tots
Ok so this by far was one of the better days, didnt eat too much and it wasnt too terrible, lets pray i can continue this all week long

Finally Feeling better! Time to get back to it!
So thank God I am finally feeling better cause I can now get back to my routine. So I havent eaten the best of foods but I did work out 3 days this week, but it was really hard, i didnt realize that not working out for a week I would lose my endurance. It was really pathetic... anyway i am back and ready to start a new! I also got some Hoodia pills so we shall see if they surpress my appetite.. has anyone ever tried them??? i hear good things about them but any imput would be great!
