90 Day Update: Week 1

As you all know I’m doing a 90-day challenge with Modern Pilates and Bodyscapes Fitness in Hingham, MA.

And Friday’s post is being done on Monday.

The kinks are being worked out.

I just wanted to let you know how the first week went.

As I said its a few kinks had to be worked out- a pilates session rescheduled because yours truly had a scheduling conflict, and I’ve being 5-10 mins late tardy because Baby Lug decides he’s not quite on board with the program. Le sigh.

The pluses are many- I feel taller and my muscles feel warm and worked. My coaches are awesome thus far: Robin (pilates) and Laura (personal training.) I think I have a fairly good chance of kicking some serious butt! (and get one in the process) Hooray!

I also had my measurements were taken. My goal is to not drop lbs. necessarily, but lose inches and fit into my clothes better (drop a few sizes would be good.) So without further adieu, here’s the dirty deets…

As of 5/23/10  :

  • Bust: 38 inches
  • Waist: 33 inches
  • Hips: 43 inches (!)
  • Upper arm: 12 inches
  • Upper thigh: 26 inches.

You can read more on Modern Pilate’s owner Lisa Johnson’s fab fitness blog, LisaJohnsonFitness. On Monday, she’s going to be laying down the expectations for LeBetsy and I’ll be summing up the experience on Friday.

  1. Good luck! It takes a lot of guts to write out your measurements or weight (maybe weight is harder?) for the internet to see, but it looks like you’re truly serious about getting in shape. You’ll do wonderfully! I’m looking forward to seeing those numbers get smaller and I’m sure you are too.

    I just wish you’d share a little glass of your motivation with me ;-) Secrets? I need all you’ve got!

    Go girl. I need to try some yoga or pilates or something. I need the weight loss along with the relaxation they say comes with it. Thanks for posting. maybe i’ll get inspired along the way.

    Thanks for joining the journey. And any major change IS a journey, full of “I lost 5 lbs!” and “Crap, Sunday yoga at 8:00AM!” I’m not perfect and that’s what I’m going to try to journal for the next 90 days. So far I’ve not been eating entirely clean but everyday I try to do something better. Thanks for your comment and look forward to hearing from you again. Let me know when you go to yoga…
