FLP#2 Day 1

I'm so excited to start FLP#2! Not sure what it is but until I have started the program, I have cravings for crap like a Snickers bar. Once I start the program, I don't have any problems. Go figure.

Still doing my workouts in the evening. I'm so not a morning person so find it difficult to get up early to try to get them in first thing. I can barely get up early enough to get to work on time. Blech!

FLP v2 starts next monday! Woo Hoo!

I signed up for the second FLP today! I'm so excited! I had such great results with FLP1 that I'm so looking forward to this one.

FLP v2.2

I started my version of the FLP yesterday using all the resources Coach gave us. I got such great results with the first 6 weeks that I'm doing another 6 weeks of the clean eating menu, cardio and strength exercises made up of combinations that we did during FLP. I took last week off from the cardio and strength exercises, but still ate somewhat clean - had a couple Halloween goodies in there also. ;o)

It felt so good to exercise tonight. I didn't think I could miss it, but I did. I'm lucky to have a supportive husband who encourages me to exercise and then tells me how proud he is of me. Hey, I was able to wear a pair of pants today that I haven't worn in over a year. Woo Hoo!!! I was so excited!
