Day three in Warsaw, Poland
Hello everyone,
Pleased to meet you and to be doing this program.
I don't know how much I weigh- I don't have enough courage for that yet- I know it needs to be done, but I am estimating that I need to lose about 40 lbs, give or take a few.
A bit of history, I have been following the "body for life" program and have had great success on it, then, I had my second daughter and although I have been working out since she was 4 months old- nothing is happening weight wise, a lot of effort and nothing. For those who don't know body for life, it is a 6 meal a day equal carb and equal protein diet that emphasises exercise, 6 days a week of high intensity work outs.
So after hearing about it on another board (thanks cleochatra) and doing a lot of research on the web I bought the book and have been following the induction since monday.
The first day I had a headache which slowly diminished. The exercise is the same- for me that is not the problem. Well only 3 days and my husband says he has noticed a difference already, like I am not so "puffy".
So that is where I am at the momment.
My true test will be this week end, we are going to Berlin for a mini- break and well, German food, what can I say! I think the beer will be tough, maybe a sip!
On a personal note, I am Canadian and living in Warsaw, Poland. We have been here for two and a half years while my husband is working a contract for a real estate developer. I have managed to pick up some work as a stylist for a Polish decorating magazine and I have just wrapped up a model home I decorated for a builder here. We have a 6 year old girl and an 11 month old baby girl- who is our little devil.
Looking forward to meeting you and learning from you as well. There are some amazing before and after photos on this board, now if that is not inspiration, I don't know what is!
