My Abventure

Ahhhh, what to write in the very first blog….

OBJECTIVE

I am 5′6″ and 136.2 lbs.  I have been obsessed with toned abs for years, but I’ve never had them.  I came very close once, but then I went on vacation and that screwed everything up.  The real culprit that prohibited me from achieving my abdominal desires has been alcohol.  Now that I’ve decided never to drink again (2 months sober, yay!) I believe now is the time to work hard and reap the rewards of sexy abs.

A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT I’VE BEEN DOING 

I’ve been on The Abs Diet for 3 days, and I really like it.  Luckily, I LOVE to cook, so I went grocery shopping and bought a bunch of the ingredients it calls for in the book.  I went ahead and prepared all the food I bought, and put it all in tupperware in my fridge.  

It says in The Abs Diet book that I don’t have to do any of the given exercise suggestions for the first 2 weeks in order to become acclimated to the diet plan, but I’ve begun walking every morning anyway.  I live in an area where the streets are steep inclines, so I’ve been walking up and down these streets for 20-30 minutes a day.   

I also went to a Yoga class yesterday (Saturday).

GOALS

2 weeks from the time I started The Abs Diet will be January 30th, which in turn is a little less than 2 weeks from the 52DC.  So between January 30th and February 11th, I will work on getting accustomed to the given exercise plans found in the book.  The book’s workout suggestions will be my goals for the 52DC.

I’ve decided to rest from exercise on Sundays, and this will be the day I get to have my cheat meal.  However, I am not going to have a cheat meal until I’ve been on the diet for at least a whole week. 

I plan on taking a Yoga class every Saturday (or once a week) starting now until forever.  This will be one of my personal goals for the 52DC. 

I think I want to be 115lbs… but as I’m reading and learning more, muscle weighs more than fat.  So I’ll be happy either being 115lbs or a Size 2… whichever comes first.

Hopefully this blog will keep my Size 6 arse in check. 

For the record, here are my BEFORE pictures:
