Alrighty! Day 27! (Geez, it feels like I’ve been doing this workout for ages!)

I forgot to share the exciting news last week! Between February 14 and February 28, I dropped about 1 inch (2.5 cm) from my waist and 2 inches (5 cm) from my hips! I’m sure it’s been more than that altogether, but I didn’t measure until I was already two weeks into the shred. I really want to keep up this momentum! Body measurements are more accurate than weight, but I’ll continue to track both.

Also: I need a new belt. WHEE! It’s so great when jeans that were previously snug start to feel loose! Hopefully I have some old jeans at my parents’ place that will fit once my current ones are too big altogether!

Optimistic? Why yes, I am! I’m in a fairly good mood today. I think it’s because I found organic strawberries on sale at Whole Foods. I have been craving strawberries in the worst way for a coupe months now, but they were always too expensive for me to bother buying them. NOT ANYMORE!!!

…I have the feeling I was talking about something completely different before I got distracted by talk of pants and delicious red berries. OH YES! The shred.

It was another night where I exercised more out of a feeling of obligation than motivation. But when it was all said and done, I was very glad that I went through with it. So…LET THAT BE A LESSON TO YOU, YOUNG LADY.

(If I were Calvin’s dad, I would tell you that it builds character)
