The End of September's Challenge Update: Rockin' Body!

Hello everyone!

September's challenge went really great! My main workout was taking the Shaun T's Rockin' Body Challenge. I worked out most days making sure that I rest one day a week (mostly Sundays) and got in over 45 miles of walking (Walk-The-Pounds DVDS) along with Rockin’ Body. I really enjoyed Rockin' Body. I love to dance so it was "right up my alley". He even work you out with weights and Lower and Upper body workouts. I got it for only $20. Money well spent because I hardly have time to make it to a gym and it would just be money wasted. I will be doing another cycle of the workouts next month.

This month I also got a chance to get in 4 swimming lessons and did pretty decent with my food. I had a Shakeology shake everyday. The last couple of days I have been experimenting with drinking 2 shakes a day and I really liked the results. I am considering getting some protein powder so I can make extra shakes/smoothies for after my workouts daily. I changed my calories goal back to 1500 daily calories after not liking the 1600 calories goal results.

I took pictures once we got back from the cruise and after taking the pictures, I realized that maybe I had not chosen the best clothes to show my results. Therefore this morning, I had no desire to take a picture. :-( I felt that I would not see any changes. My husband encouraged me to take the pictures anyway and I am so glad that I did!



Here are my numbers:

09.03.12
Waist: 44
Around Belly: 52
Weight: 334lbs (I gained a couple of pounds on the cruise :-( )
Hips: 56

09.30.12
