My BeachBody Journey :)

[EmileexDoll]

Hey there
So I thought I'd do start myself a diary - a little bit about me, I'm Emily, & I have a little boy whos 4. I started losing weight last year when I was 16st2lbs. I did weight watchers for a while but then once I got down to 26 points I was always hungry! Cutting a long story short, I have decided to do calorie counting & exercise with the beach body programmes - the one I'm starting on is TurboFire & I'm currently on Day 6 & I'm mainly focusing on the inches rather than the number on the scale

These are my stats from May 1st, I'll be doing these fortnightly after I started the exercise so next time I'll measure is May 20th

Wrist - 5.25in
Forearm - 10in
Neck - 12.5in
Waist - 29.5in
Hips - 40.5in (argh!!)
Thigh - 24in
Calf - 16in

Okay so 1520 calories done and I've done my exercise for today - Fire 30 / Stretch 10... this one is the easier one for me but thats probably because I remember the moves lol, tomorrow is the one I'm dreading! Core 20 / Stretch 40 - the stretch I don't mind so much though

Day 3 done :] Workout done - getting a bit used to it but tomorrows is an hour long :/ meep! 1550 calories down which isn't bad :] Had a sneaky peek at the inches and I've deffo lost a few which is fab! Not so much on the weight but I'm at the point where it doesn't matter if I weigh 12st and a size 8 - that'd be nice lol! Just focusing on the inches for now :]

So I'm on Day 6 but the end of week one on Turbo Fire I didn't take a rest day as I thought if I did I'd probably wreck the 2 days I already done :/ haha! So I'll weigh in tomorrow Not doing measurements for another week but my jeans are already getting a bit baggy - finally!

Back to tracking on here.
I have upped my exercise so I've had to up my calories too, so I'm on 1790 calories a day, doing at least an hour exercise a day (apart form my rest day)
Lost another lb but last week was all over the place with my son being on half term so I'm re-doing week 3. Nearly onto week 4 now as I've done it from Monday - Sunday instead of Weds - Weds.
