Well, after a few weeks of waiting … the “10 Minute Trainer” fitness program arrived yesterday. So … today is THE day to get started. I weighed myself, took a “before” picture (oh my! what a way to start my day!), and tried to carefully measure myself. Measuring (to me) can be very subjective so … I wanted the measuring to be as accurate as possible. Well .. It’s all recorded on a little piece of paper on my night stand. I’m still trying to decide how much of “myself” I want to share with all of you.
I started the day with the 10 minute cardio. It kicked my butt. I am so out of shape – it’s SAD!!!! I didn’t even try to use the resistance bands. I just wanted to actually be alive at the end of the 10 minutes.
After lunch (during nap time), I did the 10 minute yoga flex. OK. This was much more my speed. I don’t think I really burnt any calories but it was very relaxing and felt great to be all stretched out.
I’m thinking I’ll try to keep a weekly update to see how this journey goes. Look for an update next Friday … when I really hope to post some pounds and inches being lost somewhere …. somewhere really far from my butt!!!!!!

Hey, Tabitha!
Just found the site thanks to Jamie putting it up on his FB profile. I’m really interested on your progress with the 10 minute trainer. I was watching it last night and thought it might be something that the wife and I might be able to get into together.
BTW… any plans on posting the before pic?
