Day 15-lean and strong and healthy

Today was lots of fun. I have a little substituting job at the daycare I used to work at for this week, so I got to see some old friends and some little guys who've grown a LOT!! Lots of singing today!
Spent a while at the pool this afternoon and got all pink and lobsterly. I need to go buy sunblock. That's really more a reminder for me than you, but, you know, you probably need it too.

I am loving the new bike, went for a little ride today and DID NOT wheeze. It used to be that even the smallest exertion made me grab the inhaler. I've got "exercise induced" asthma. Well, to quote "lord of the flies" SUCKS TO ASSMAR! I did pretty well. Cutting the dairy and eating fewer red meats and gluten is helping more every day.
I worked out again doing a pilates/yoga workout dvd and I LOVED it. I was able to keep up and remember to breathe and I have been looking much leaner in the mirror lately. I don't have 2 sets of boobies anymore and the muscles behind them are, shall we say LIFTING!!! It still amazes me that only a short while ago I felt like I'd never get the body I want. I get it more every day. My husband even remarked "hey, your tummy doesn't stick out farther than your chest now, looks good, honey!!"  Ab crunches are the devil but they work. curses. must.keep. crunching...
That catalyst stuff is awesome. I will be using that stuff for a long time. Amino acids really help tone the muscles. FAST.
I weighed myself today.... 136!  still not starving and feeling great!! Hope you are too, LOVE!! see you tomorrow!
