Yeeouch!!!

I'm in pain. That pretty much says it all. I was so tired after doing the Shred that I went to bed nice and early last night. While I was laying in bed this morning, I started moving different body parts around thinking, "I don't hurt at all". Then I decided that on top of the Shred, I'd start doing Pilates every day too and that would tone me up even faster. I'm glad that I didn't do any more thinking before I got up. Ouch. It. Hurts. To. Walk. It hurts to do pretty much anything. This is going to be a fantastic day, I just know it ;-) Pilates today? I think not!

On the bright side, I'm down to 203.5 lbs (-2.5 lbs). 7 lbs gone in two days is pretty awesome. It's a good feeling. Is it possible to feel lighter already? I know 7 lbs really isn't that much, but I do feel lighter. Maybe it's that I don't feel so sluggish that's making the difference. Well whatever the reason, I'll keep it!

I didn't talk about the Shred last night because I was so completely wasted (workout wasted, not alcohol wasted). I took measurements of practically my whole body before I started so I'll be able to post before and after. Before and after are FUN! Like I said in my post last night... I can't remember the last time I sweated that much. I had sweat dripping off my eyebrows and nose after only 10 minutes. I hope it gets easer as time goes on. I actually did push-ups last night, only two real ones, and a couple dozen modified ones, but they were push=ups none the less. No wonder my arms hurt so bad! I'm going to get some 2 lb hand weights today when I return the DVD. I was using 5 lb hand weights last night and they were really too heavy. I used them about half the time and soup cans the other half. Other than that, I think I'm set.
