One two skip a few 99 a hundred:Day 8,9,10

On day 8 my scale said
Weight 134.2 lbs
Bodyfat: I'm pretty sure the scale is a lie its like 35.5%
I took my 7 day results pics this morning. So far I just see really subtle changes but changes none the less. I think my Bum has received a small lift but that is just my opinion. The pictures arent perfect but I tried to get them as close as possible. Sorry about the quality.

On days 8,9,10 I spent out of town in a hotel and will be there a couple more nights. Fortunately, I was able to keep up with my workouts without a hitch. My only problem is I wait til midnight to do my muscle work. On the upside I even got the boyfriend to start exercising with me... Sort of, he rides an exercise bike while I flop around like a fish for 40 minutes. He even told me I was looking thinner today. Even if he is just being sweet, I totally ate that compliment up:)
As far as my diet goes... Well it just doesn't. There is no microwaves or fridges in the hotel. Instead I loaded up on the fresh fruit they offer, lots of water, and try my best to eat reasonably. When I say best I just mean that I eat one cookie instead of the whole box. So not Tracy approved. I guess it's official that my journey is not by the book. It's just hard for this junkfood junkie to go cold turkey. I always end up jonesing for my chocolate fix. It's terrible, I know :(

Day 7

The scale has risen either from my bad eating, water weight, or I have built muscle wink wink :) It does say that my body fat percentage has gone down:

Weight: 134.8 lbs
Bodyfat: 29.9%

I forgot to mention my new shoes yesterday. I bought the new reebok easy tones. The lady at footlocker convinced me that they were well suited for all the bouncing that occurs during the TAM cardio session. Of course I've already tried them. The verdict says that if you spend most of your time bouncing on the balls of your feet they are perfect. Although, I felt like they could require a little more cushioning in the toes.

Oh and I'm so excited a fellow TAM blogger is my first follower yay!! I visited her blog and was mesmerized by her amazing abs she has posted online. I definitely hope I can get those someday.

I've been a good girl today and followed the TAM diet without any extra goodies on the side. The workouts finally feel doable lol. Yes I know they were always doable but now I don't feel like I'm about to die the whole time. I procrastinated all day. I finally worked out at 10 pm. Which is actually prime workout time for me if I'm not too ... ( insert excuse here). Which could be why the workouts weren't completely miserable. Although I'm sure my "sleeping" boyfriend wouldn't agree. So there you have it I made it a week. Only three more plus a lifetime to go :)

Happy New Years :Days 5 & 6

The holidays are officially my cryptonite. I did all of my workouts as planned. I also ate all TAM meals except for dinner. Friday I tried to stick to TAM recommendations I got salad with vinegar, vegetable medley and salmon. Of course the salmon came with a small side of bernaise sauce. That small side creamy tangy sauce called my name so loud I could not turn my back on it. There I was doing so good and Bam I failed. Then of course being new years you have to throw a few back. So I ordered 2 select 55's. Then someone bought me a margarita which I kindly drank 1/2 of it. Then today I ate my TAM meals except dinner once again. I had to go to a family function that was based around chili and tamales. I tried just sticking with the chili. Unfortunately, it was so hot I had to tone it down with the tamales. So day 2 I failed miserably.... Booo! The whole situation reminds me a of Cedric the entertainers comedy about being on a diet. He compares it to being like a crack addict. Somehow I can totally relate to that lol. In the morning it will be another day and I will try and try again. I hope y'all had a Happy New Years!!!
