Weigh-In Wednesday and Day 3 of Shred

Yowzers! I am beat right now. I just completed my third day of Shredding...at 9:10pm. Definitely too late in the day for this! I am so tired, but at the same time so energized that I'm not sure I'll get to sleep when I want. But I am still proud of myself for doing it. I had grand plans of completing it earlier in the day, but first thing in the morning does not work for me. I enjoy my sleep too much to wake up earlier than 5:30. And today I was cleaning the house and out running errands all day. We had a small Easter Egg decorating party this afternoon also which concluded with 2 egg hunts because one is never enough!

As for my weight-loss this week, well there wasn't any. In fact, I gained 1.4# so I am back where I started this challenge. I'm not that upset about it because honestly I know that I had lost this week but then I went and ate fried shrimp and french fries (and queso if you must know) which just led me right back in the wrong direction on the scale. But I also started working out this week so I'm going with the whole muscle weighs more than fat excuse too. :-) The good news is that even though I gained I have noticed that my favorite jeans are beginning to hang a little looser. My friend Carrie even told me this afternoon that my pants were too big. Thanks Carrie! And I feel so much stronger from the workouts the past three days. I love feeling the burn in my legs when I walk up the stairs, espite the fact that during that last circuit tonight I actually cursed out loud at Jillian. Good thing the kids were asleep!
