I took a progress photo today as week 3 of Insanity comes to a close. Today is a day off – recovery. I keep wanting to workout but my husband told me there is a reason they tell you to take a day off so I’m going to fight the urge to get on the treadmill. I find it amusing that a month ago I was trying to find the motivation to finally tone up and hopefully lose the last 15 lbs I want to lose, and now I’m having to force myself to take a day off.
Seeing results helps fuel this INSANE behavior.
Not only seeing, but feeling. I feel GREAT. But I also can see results when I look in the mirror, especially in my midsection that I thought having 2 kids had destroyed beyond repair.
In 3 weeks I have lost 1 inch around in my hips and 1 inch around in my waist. My thighs have actually gotten slightly bigger, but my theory is that the muscle is building up under the jiggly stuff and eventually will burn that jiggly stuff off.
So without further ado, check out my Insanity week 3 results photos:
For previous weeks photos and my “before” pic see this page: INSANITY RESULTS.
Note: I was sent the INSANITY workout program to try and share my feedback on my blog. The sweat, and opinions produced during my use of the program are my own.
About Kimberly Grabinski
Yay Kim!! You are inspiring me so much! I come here to realize that while I am not seeing instant results, I WILL see results eventually. Your belly really is shrinking. I can tell on your sides that things are tightening up.
LOL @ “jiggly stuff” I hope to get my jiggly stuff off too hehehe
You will see results eventually! Everything happens from the inside out.
Keep up the good work!
Go you! I definitely had to fight the urge to REST in the beginning too. I just loved seeing results. But it does make sense. If you don’t give your muscles time to recover, then they don’t work as efficiently the next time you need to wear and tear them!
Thanks Erin!
Ooooh you have the beginnings of a hot hot hot tummy! Woohoo!!
Um, is that the beginning of a six pack in that there midsection photo? You go girl!
I hope so! You know what’s weird? The squishy stuff that is quickly melting off, is like sitting on top and more squishy than ever…like the muscle is underneath pushing the fat away.
I hear ya, mine is doing the same, albeit not as prettily as yours!
