lets-get-happy-and-healthy:
Even with my break (finals and bad eating blues) I still am seeing progress thanks to my hardwork and can-do attitude. I don’t know my weight yet but I believe in non scale victories :) I see a difference! Does anyone else? :)
Oh, and sorry for the bad quality of the during. Yes, I still have a smidge of stomach fat line near the pelvis :(
Today might not have been the best day but, I’m not going to stop tomorrow from being a better day.
I’m not losing weight for just me. I’m losing weight to feel something, anything. I want to much to be worthy of the people I love so much. To be more than what they think I can be. I want so much more than what I have.

Exercise for the Transversus Abdominis
(AKA the muscle that pulls in the ring of your waist)
One area of your abs you may be neglecting is the transversus abdominus - without working it, you run the risk of developing a square torso (straight up and down) rather than an hourglass one (tapered at the waist). Here’s what you can do along with your usual ab workout:
- Get on all fours, back straight, looking down.
- Exhale completely, then hold your breath.
- Pull your belly toward your spine (“suck in”) as hard as possible for 10 seconds, while continuing to hold your breath.
- Inhale. Take a few breaths, then repeat 10 times.
Later, you’ll probably feel as though you’d been laughing at something REALLY funny. That’s because you worked those same muscles. Enjoy!
