I finally joined a gym on Thursday..I tell you the stars were aligned for me that day..as I had wanted to join right after Thanksgiving and it just didn’t feel right..so I was starting to think I would let my fear and embarrassment of actually working out in front of people keep me from joining.  But after strong encouragement from so many friends on here, especially LiftHeavyStuff who would not give up on me as he guides me through this journey, I am a real "gymgirl". 

Today is my 6th day of eating clean and my 3rd day in a row going to the gym..both huge firsts for me in my desire for the rocking body.  And guess what..the day I signed up I got a "special" promotion and am paying less than $12 a month..can you believe that???

I WILL see results soon..and can’t wait to be proud enough of my success to post more pics!!

So..was thinking i was rocking this plan..eating so much less then i use to and eating what i consider much healthier..and getting at least 45-60 minutes of working out in everyday (and remember this was starting from near nothing before)..well..i guess it backfired as i did sooo awesome on Thanksgiving..wasnt even tempted by pie..but starting last friday i just began feeling really sluggish and dreaded the thought of exercise but kept my food intake "focused"..but guess i wasnt getting enough calories (which is a very weird concept for me)..cuz yesterday i melted down..so was greatful to get the "go ahead" and even encouragement to eat more and give myself the rest of the day off from worrying about when i could fit in a workout with no energy.  But today..I feel recharged..refocused..was able to get in about 20 minutes this morning and going to the store tonight to make sure i have enough proper food to make me energized the entire day!
