• Notes: 
  • I am exhausted and am finding myself rather fatigued quite easily.  I’m struggling
  • Just two days into the week and I’m at 2.5 hours of exercise.  Body fat is still in the 21%’s so yesterday’s wasn’t a fluke.  Not sure what to do with this information… loving it but scares me about it going up again, which we know it will
  • Exercise room is almost done – and we have a big mat I can use for BOD.  This is going to be a productive winter!
  • 139.6 On Tuesday morning!!!!
  • I’ve updated my training spreadsheet to just list BOD instead of a specific workout.  I’m finding that the kids’ schedules are making it hard to commit to a specific program and I need to be flexible
  • I have noticed a change in my physique after just 2 weeks, and wasn’t sure if it was my mind playing tricks on me… so I took photos and put them beside my starting photos.  I think there’s progress!  Things are definitely tightening up
  • I am 0.8 pounds away from my all-time low weight, and that’s when I was nursing a baby.  I can hardly believe it!
  • I got body fat % readings of 21.1% this morning (Thursday), which is an all-time low, but it bounced between and that 21.4% so I went with 21.3%, which turns out to be my lowest ever

• Finish on 12/31/2015 SAFELY in the 130’s (meaning a couple of weeks prior to 12/31 weighing in in the 137-139 range)

• I want to see major changes in my physique since I’m so dedicated to PiYo
• Complete 5+ hours a week of dedicated exercise
• Run 20-25 15-20 miles a week on average
• Complete the full PiYo 8 week program
• Supplement my fitness with at least 2 BOD (bea.chbo.dy on dem.and) workouts a week
