I have completed my second week of working out.  YAY!  I am choosing to celebrate the small victories, which is really all that I have right now. Like my shirt and nightgown fitting a little looser.  I definitely have more energy, my skin is clearer, muscles are getting stronger, eyes are whiter (I kind of shocked myself with this one when I looked in the hallway mirror) LOL!!  I was also able to complete the Curves Weight Management manual, while on jury duty, since I wasn't assigned to a courtroom.  I don't want to sound like a kool-aid drinker, but this really seems to be a well thought out program.  My biggest challenge this week was to take it easy and try not to take on too much at once.   I want to FLY and SOAR not crash and burn.  After reading that manual it was hard because I liked the sound of the Curves smart program and the 30-day diet plan.  A couple of things out of my hands stopped me, thank God.  I had to keep reminding myself only fools rush in.  I still snuck and asked the trainer at Curves about the smart program.  The first question she asked was how long have you been here?  And Then as I left she said ... "There is really NO RUSH to get started." After which I heard a chorus of angels began to sing Hallelujah!!!  Well maybe that's not true but her words definitely put any plans I had on the brakes.  I know me and I know how I am, I need to get use to just driving to the place 3 days a weeks and getting through the workout.  The workout is getting easier but it's still challenging for me, especially when I get on the second turn around the circuit.   In spite of it ALL, I am truly up to the challenge!!!!!
