Fit Into Your Skinny Pants, Week 3

I have to admit I'm getting a little impatient with this. I've been doing this for three weeks now, and I guess I expected more of a difference in how I look already. I also realized that my scale was off, so I stupidly adjusted it and now it looks like I haven't lost any weight at all which is pretty discouraging. My measurements are lower, though, so I guess something is working the way it's supposed to.

I have kept up the exercise and the eating healthy again this week. I've been using Madonna Grimes African Beat Latin Heat for Beginners dance workout for my cardio exercise, and it is SO FUN. But, I've actually learned the routine well enough now that I'm ready to send it back and get a new one from Netflix. Dance workouts are the best, though, because you actually learn a dance routine instead of just bounce around doing stupid steps like the Grapevine for 40 minutes. I feel like I'm actually accomplishing something with the dance workout.

Anyway, despite my discouraged feelings, I'm going to keep it up. I figure I'll do it the healthy way for at least 6 weeks before I resort to abusing laxatives and starving myself (that is a joke, Mom).

Measurements:
Waist - 29 in
Hips - 42 1/2 in
