Workout Wednesday on Thursday!

OK So I'm joining in on Erika's Scale Free Summer!. Don't be scared of the blog name! It's for everyone :-) Wonderful advice, true stories, recipes and encouragement! One of my favorite posts of hers is about The Progress Dress. She's a real woman who lost major weight and is keeping it off. As a result of the scale free summer I have no idea how much weight I have or haven't lost. But I can tell you that I am able to finish the level one workout without stopping. Next step is to do the advanced only for a 3-5 days and then progress to level 2. I finished the level one 6 week 6 pack abs workout with lots of sweat but barely felt the burn when it was over! Which means today I'll be adding weight to some of the moves to increase the burn and I will probably only do it for another week (total 2 instead of three) and move on to the next level! There was only one move that I had trouble with and it is the side plank, with leg cross. Side planks have always been a struggle for me - Here it is. Looks fairly easy and it probably should be but my balance is awful! I keep falling over!

Anyways, I really like doing all 3 videos! With only 31 days left till our beach/cruise vacation, I want to work out as much as I can now. So that on our cruise it'll just be habit to spend at least 30min working out. I do not want to go on vacation and gain weight. To have 7 days where I have NO control over how my food is prepared! I need my body to be ready to burn unexpected fat and calories! 

Happy 4th of July people! We're headed to a BBQ this afternoon. Hoping the rain comes early and goes away. But it's been raining ALL week so we'll see how it goes!
