Days 23-29: My Journey from Pudgy to "Perfect"

Days 24-26: Slim In 6 Start It Up

Even though I’ve had to work out barefoot since my feet are too big for my shoes (my last pregnancy made my feet grow and I haven’t been able to buy new shoes – no time or money to shop :() I didn’t want to give up on my “full” workouts.

I had looked into doing the Ramp It Up workout which is next in the series. It warns at the beginning to not do the workout until you’ve “mastered” the Start It Up routine. I don’t feel I’ve quite mastered it so I think I’ll wait at least another week.

Day 29:

I was really down in the dumps in the evening the day before so I decided to take the day off on Sunday. Tomorrow I’ll get back into the swing of things with the Slim in 6 Start It Up. Maybe DH will decide to be nicer to me by being a little less critical and more helpful.
