Body Sculpting

"Living a healthy lifestyle will only deprive you of poor health, lethargy and fat." ~ Jill Johnson

Today I started a new regiment of exercise at a Body Sculpting Studio. The process is a circuit where you do five different routines three times with stretching in between. I sort of liked it but it is definitely way more challenging than Curves, which also uses a circuit.

This is fast-paced and you absolutely sweat. As I was leaving, I had to walk down three steps and my legs felt a little like jello. I am going to try it out for 10 sessions and see what happens. I need to adapt a few of the routines for my shoulder but otherwise it may be ok. By the third round of the exercise, I start to fade. It will be interesting to see if by the end of ten sessions there is a difference in my ability to do them without breathing so heavy.

My goal for 2012 is to live a healthier lifestyle for all of the reasons above. Deprivation sometimes is a good thing. The photo is a year old and I have gained about 10 pounds since then. I am at an all-time high as far as my weight goes and so I need to drop about 20 pounds in the coming year. With Type II Diabetes, high cholestrol, high blood pressure, and heart issues in the family, I need to take better care of myself. Wish me luck!!

Peace,

Suzanne
