Abs of Steel...wool!

Boy have I felt my abs today! After all the leg work Casey had me doing yesterday, I thought I'd have more trouble walking...but that's not the case! Today the problem has been laughing! I can really tell I worked my abs...from the bottom of my chest all the way to my hips! I guess that's good. Who would have thought there were that many muscles in that area??

Today wasn't the best day for eating. I even packed my lunch for the workshop today! I thought that would keep me from eating the rich foods at the restaurant which the group chose to dine. It did help....except I wanted more tonight. I haven't really had a full meal of cheating...just bits and pieces...until tonight. My "cheat" meal tonight was 4 wings and 4 pieces of a BLT pizza. Not huge pieces...just the squares. I'm wondering...is it better to cheat on a night when I know I'll get my butt kicked tomorrow during my workout, or is it better to enjoy it on the weekend when I can enjoy it? Will it make my workout harder? I'm thinking it will...but as far as burning it off...I'm not sure when is best.

Tomorrow I'm back at Boot Camp. I'm anxious to get there and make sure I can keep up. I've asked about getting a list of exercises I can do while I'm on vacation and visiting family.

Hmmm....today, my belief is not as strong, but I always feel that way after I'm indulged while trying to make a lifestyle change (like the way I DIDN'T call it a DIEt!?)

I know it's understandable and appropriate to enjoy eating from time to time. I just have to make sure it doesn't happen again for at least a week or so. So today I don't INternally believe, so I have to fake it til I make it, right?

I CAN do this!!
