I have been participating in the LiveSTRONG Program for 6 weeks now. I'm half way through, baby! Woot woot! (I actually am a little bummed it is going so fast) I have learned so much and love working out with this group. They have become really good friends. I am going to have to brave to keep going when it gets over or beg the ladies to keep working out together with me! ;) Maybe Katelyn will just let me coming to LiveSTRONG for the rest of my life???? Hey- a girl can dream, right?
Denise brought us some Breast Cancer Treats to celebrate our 6 weeks. Thanks lady! They were way yummy! [Kiona, Jennifer& Matt couldn't make it today. We missed them!]
We completed our 6 Week Assessment today. I was way proud of myself. Here's my results:

According to the chart, it may seem like I've just gained some weight (I am claiming it's because muscle weighs more than fat! LOL) and decided to run instead of walk. But I have felt like I have improved a LOT! So, I wanted to also tell my improvement on the weight machines. I love that I have been able to "up" my weight (and reps or sets) on everything. Go me!!!:
