I have put in 6 days of cardio and strength. Even after 6 days, I can already feel things tightening and toning. Now I just have to promise to not blow it on the weekend. I have to keep in mind that parties are fine with normal quantities of food and minimal drinks. This will be the hard part, but I worked really hard this week and don't want to blow it. Besides, sacrifices will have to be made to readh a 10 lb. loss by the end of the month. I'm guessing that anything that looks yummy and tastes good will still be available later right? They aren't going to run out of anything just because I'm on a diet, duhhhhh. Off to reve up my will power.
