Midnight is nearing so I better get this post up! I had to wait for the hubby to get home from traveling today to take a picture and I am so glad I did! This past week has been amazing in terms of finding strength in my mind, body and wellness. Like I mentioned last week I starting taking classes at The Dailey Method. My weekly minimum is getting in at least four classes and I did just that. I wanted to take five but by Friday I was beat so I took Friday off to rest and then hit the weekend strong. I am loving the classes more than ever even if yesterday was probably the worst for me in terms of being mentally engaged but I made it through and I felt great afterwards. Tonight’s class reconfirmed why I love taking classes at The Dailey Method.
When I arrive to the studio I am always greeted with friendly smiles and by name! All the instructors are fab and they all try to get to know you enough to create a great relationships. This is huge to me! I stopped taking Bikram because of the instructors and even some spin classes depending on who is instructing. Honestly, at The Dailey Method it doesn’t matter who the instructor is, you get a great workout and you leave feeling positive. Tonight’s class instructed by Michelle left me feeling energized. She gave me a high-five after class and applauded me on my hard work and dedication. I seriously could’ve cried. While I had felt deflated over the weekend she picked me right back-up. I have a goal and gosh darn it I will get there! It doesn’t matter if one day my legs chatter like crazy or the next I can hold my low c-curve without holding on. I am working at my own pace and I am loving it!
Each night my body is sore, a good, healthy sore. I can see a change and I am getting addicted seeing my old body re-emerge. While the road is still long, my butt is being lifted (thank you seated pretzel!) and my core is a lot stronger. The other day I was complaining that the skin below my belly button would never tighten up and would you believe that today there are barely any wrinkles in the skin? It’s happening people! Believe in yourselves and believe that with hard work and dedication you will see the results you are working towards!
In terms of my weight, I have lost another pound. I believe in the next two weeks the pounds will start coming off a little faster but we shall see. I’ll take a pound at a time…
How was your week? Your challenge?
On another note, thank you to all who have e-mailed me about inspiring you to reach your goals. You brighten my day and keep me going!
