During the first 23 days of Round 2 Phase 2 (R2P2) I lost 25 pounds. Then I decided to exercise. This slowed my daily losses, but I began to firm up. Frankly, I don't care what the scales read as long as I look good! I mean, the daily losses during P2 are always thrilling, but I just want to be fit and firm first and foremost. That was a mouthful! HAHAHA ;)
I began my exercise foray with BeachBody's 10 Minute Trainer. I found I was still too large to do many of the floor exercises, but was also thrilled to learn that I could actually perform many at that point. When I began the 10 Minute Trainer, I had lost 75 pounds with the HCG plan, so I was much more agile than I had once been! However, I finally decided that I would hold off on the 10MT until a few more pounds had left and instead try the Tabata Protocol prescribed in Dr. Simeon's book on the HCG Protocol. It's intense, but easy to accomplish and only takes a few minutes. I've been working up using my exercise bike and find I really enjoy it. If you have questions about it, let me know. I'll send or post the details.
Back to the books! Finals will be complete in a few days and I am looking forward to hurrying this cookbook out to you all. Hang in there--you are closer than you think!
