• Notes: 
  • I started the challenge at 147.2 pounds but was 144.6 after just one day of working out, so I changed my start weight to 144.6 to be fair to myself and the program
  • By day 3, prior to working out, I weighed 143.4 pounds, so a nice 1.2 pound drop/correction
  • I think you’d have to try to fail at this program. If you do even the base minimum, you will see results
  • Feeling looser after resting from H&C and doing a Fire 60 HIIT – those kicks felt so good at the end once my legs were loose!
  • 142.6 pounds on day 5 – a loss of 2 pounds for the week so far!  Back to my pre-crazy holiday eating (that started on Christmas Day)
  • Another 0.4 lost by day 6, for a total of 2.4 pounds so far which is still due to a correction from the holidays
  • Sunday morning was great on the scale, but I was not good during the day and ate too much hummus.  HA!  It will be interesting to see where I land Wednesday morning
  • Prepped another week’s worth of salads on Sunday night and sent 2 with my friend to get her started on the right foot on Monday!
  • We had the almond crusted chicken 3 times this week – the entire family loves it!

  • In regards to food, some days were good, some days were bad, but I ended up netting under my goal every day when you look at average net calories eaten per day
  • I am already seeing results in my abs and shoulders from this program, so I’m going to take progress pictures every two weeks
  • Body Fat is back in the 21%’s!
