Ab work

[breakinglight11]

Been working seriously on my abs again. Trying to do it as by the book as I can this time around, so I actually see results. They're actually looking not half bad at the moment, but there's still a ways to go, and I don't want to make the same mistakes I did last time I seriously attempted to do this. Because I never really saw exactly the results I wanted, it was suggested that I probably wasn't eating enough to build the proper muscle. I'm going to have to watch out for that again; my first instinct in these matters is to eat less. On top of that I've had a bad couple of days with a stress stomach ache, which means I haven't been eating much. Honestly a couple of days of it aren't so bad; it sleeked up some of the puffiness that was pissing me off, maybe gave a bit of a head start getting rid of some stored calories, but it isn't good for it to go on long or my metabolism will just go into starvation mode and I won't burn off anything, much less develop muscle.

In the interest of tracking my progress, I am taking a picture of myself so I can compare where I started to how I go.

Heh, I'm tempted to say that because she's you're sister she might have the same fantastic genes that allow you to look so fantastic with just the stuff that you do. But lightning rarely strikes twice, so I'm going to reccomend what I'm doing right now-- find a fitness magazine, I like Women's Health, and choose a workout they reccomend. I'm following their Abs Guide that they publish yearly, and I'm liking it so far.
