Feeling way better

It was a bit uncomfortable sleeping last night, but I definitely woke up feeling a lot better and my muscles looser.  Still a lil bit of pain with fast movements, but I can move better.  Hopefully i can rest this weekend and get better.  Sad I had to miss dance last night.

Pain!

OMG...I woke up in the middle of the night in so much pain.  I guess I slept wrong and pinched a nerve or something.   But I woke up with my entire top shoulder hurting, but more so my right shoulder blade area and my arm.  Rocco had to help me get dressed because it hurt with any slight movement, ESPECIALLY laughing and sneezing.  I have a little hunchback cause its the only position I'm comfortable with.

Another start to a struggle

I've been up and down on keeping my blog updated.  But here's my upteenth attempt to keep it as updated as possible on my weight loss progress.  Lots of things have happened in the past year.  And now I have a new goal to reach for.  I really want to feel and look they way I've always wanted to for a friend's wedding.  The next wedding I'll be a part of will be on May 11, 2013, so that is my new goal! 

I've backtracked and calculated about my goal weight for each week starting now.  I have about a year and a half to finally get my BMI to normal.  I know it will be tough especially with holidays, birthday celebrations, family gatherings, etc.  But I really do owe this to myself.  To be healthy and be happy. 

My half goal is to lose 50 lbs by my 31st bday which is June 23, 2012.  I know I can do it, I just really need the discipline.  I was able to do it once before and in only 2 months.  Now I gotta progressively just bring it down and maintain it.  Wish me luck because I definitely need the support!  Tomorrow I will post my most updated measurements and picture!

2nd measurement day!

HO MY GOD!  I was crazy and decided to go two Hip Hop Classes.  I don't usually go to Urban hip hop at 7, but Yuki was subbing and I just had to go.  Her choreography was a workout!  Afterwards, I decided that I was able to stick through my normal hip hop class.  But i must have been so tired, because in the middle of the 2nd hip hop class I totally had a brain fart and couldn't remember the routine that was just taught to me.  Thankfully by the end of the class I was able to fully do the routine twice.

Woke up feeling sore this morning...but I feel good.  It's crazy how u can work your body up with just 3 reps of 12 on an exercise.  Your muscle definitely feels the burn.  I got up the wrong way on the leg press and pulled a muscle a little, but I think I can make it to hip hop class tonight.  Looking forward to dance!
