I'm Going INSANE!!!!!

Yep , that's right! I'm going INSANE! I just bought Insanity and have, technically, made it 3 days (I did it one day before just because I was so anxious to try it, but my 60 day run started Tuesday)!

I have never been one to jump right in to all the sports and exercising, like some of the rockin gals in my family, but I have just about had it with not feeling fantastic and thought this would be a good way to get going!

I wasn't going to talk to anyone about it - I was just quietly going to do it and then if I didn't finish it wouldn't be a big fuss, but these past three days have been great and I just wanted to share! It is definitely the hardest thing I've done - not just the workouts (which are, in fact, insane) but the meal plan as well!

All the 'diets' now are changing to 'meal plans' because people are finally catching up with what's been said for years - eat a LOT of little things! I am supposed to eat 5 meals a day and throw in snacks along side or in between in order to keep my calorie count where it is supposed to be!
Due to funds, and practicality, I am not sticking to the menu exactly, I do most of it and adjust where I have to. I just don't know how big of a problem it is to eat less than the number of calories calculated for you.

These workouts are CRAZY! Going from doing nothing to wicked intense actually wasn't as hard as I thought it was, but the motivation they give on the DVD - almost like they care about you individually - helps a lot. There are a lot of reminders to take it at your own pace and work your way up and to take breaks when you need to. I think because of those reminders I am more willing to push harder than if someone was telling what I had to do - for those of you who don't know, I don't like to be told what to do! ;o)

I think I'm going to have to keep this up - it's a pretty rockin experiment! The best part is when I finish a workout and feel like have have just completed something wicked hard! That is inspiring and motivating in itself!

Til next time - Keep going INSANE

She's growING and GROWING...

We are so happy that Hailey is here! She is so fun, a great sleeper, always happy and smiley, and we love her so much! She has so much personality and that, on top of how big she's getting, makes people think she's a lot older than she is!
