Day 13, 14, and 15

I'm 3 days into this week and still going. I'm not quite as gung-ho about it as I was in the first week. I think that is to be expected. Yesterday was especially tough waking up. I had gone to bed later than I wanted and had to do cardio. I dread the cardio because it kicks my butt. But I know I really need it.

I'm still sticking to the diet. It is a bit repetitive at times. And I'm starting to be hungry ALL the time. Like between meals and snacks, I'm starving kinda hungry. I hope that means my metabolism is increasing.

To me, it looks like my stomach is getting smaller. But I'm not feeling lighter lately. And I've felt weird in my stomach. Like I'm full, even when hungry. I'm wondering if I am just feeling my ab muscles under all my fat from doing my crunches. I'm hoping that is what it is.

Day 10

I worked on Sculpt 1-2 again today. I was feeling it today. I pushed myself and was able to do a few more push-ups and even a couple of chair dips. I'm actually feeling my pectoral muscles. My biggest proud moment was when I wore a belt that I had to quit wearing a couple of months back. It was on the last hole, but I could actually put it on. I was pretty stoked by that.

Stuck to my diet. I was hungry most of the day though. I think the workouts must be speeding up my metabolism. I was tempted to treat myself to something tasty and outside of the diet tonight, but I resisted the urge. I'm trying to stay focused on my goal and not undo the progress I have made.
