iTC Final 27/27

The day has come, is the end of the iCiNG Transformation Challenge.

I might not have done any drastic change, but i really did some, and I'm proud of that.

These are the things I accomplished:

* Getting back to exersercising. I didn't do it everyday like I was supouse to but I did it, and really well, sometimes I could go walking for 2 hours straight.

* Not eating that much junk food. At the first week I didn't have anythig at all.

* Giving up ice cream at night. OMG! I felt so proud, I love ice cream, and almost everytime I'm out shopping with my family we have some, and the day I said "no I don't want" that was incredible (lol).

* I also started doing full body moist, my skin feels and looks much better.

Some persons noticed the change, mostly the ones that doesn't see me that often, like my best friend's mom who told me I was slimmer, and the laundry lady that only come once a week.

Today I took my mesuraments againg, they changed, not much but some. I'm pretty sure that if I sticked to my goals, I would have acompliched so much.

The first week was the best, I did all I was supouse to but when the day passed I started to get tired, I even stop posting my updates in here.

Know I now I do can change and I'll continue until I reash my goal.

Today i went for a walk again, this time i did it later because it was too hot. I visited the same park that i did yesterday, and it was again full of men staring, I could stand it a little more, so after my second lap, I decided to go away and find somewhere new to execise. So i did, I went to a park that is kind of far away from my house, but in this one is bigger, an there lots of people exercising, it's perfect, and now I can walk with out worring. When I got home I did 20 mins at the AbSwing again.

This is what i watched:

1 hour of "Are we there yet?" Movie, it was bad but kind of fun.

35 mins. of CSI until I realised I had seen it before.
1 hour of "Dirty Sexy Money"

I think I did okey, but i should try to eat more non process food. At lunch I should have had an salad, but I forgot to prepare it (I only eat salad if a make it). I didn't felt hungry during the day. All I drank today was water.

Exercise


I went for a walk this afternoon at a "mini" park that is near my house. I liked to walk there because there was always people around and it made me feel safe. But today I realised that everything had changed since the last time I went there. Now the park is full of construction workers of a building near by, and they keep staring at me, and even shouting me things, I ignored them, but I'm not sure if I should go back there every day.

I need new sportswear. I usually wear sweatpant, a t-shirt & one of my brother's cap. Today i didn't wore a cap, because the one that matched my outfit my brother left it at the neighbors house, instead i used a headband. I also wore an waist trimmer under my t-shirt to increase the sweating on my tummy area.

Well back at walking, I did okey, I think, I don't own a sport watch so I walked until I felt tired. I came back here and did like 20 mins. at the AbSwing. I don't feel sore, just tired.

I listened to really cool stuff while I was exercising also.

Here's the playlist (or what I remember of it) :

Rod Stweart- If You Want My Body
iCiNG Podcast - Being Happy
Weezer - Beverly Heels
Weezer - Perfect Situation
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah's - Date With a Night
Corinne Bailey Rae - Put Your Records On
Rodrigo y Gabriela - Diablo Rojo
Uepa Radio Show


TV Diet

You won't believe but today i just watched 1 hour of television, just one episode of CSI. I really didn't watched anymore because i didn't have the time. I read two chapter of the Agatha Christie book, they are almost going to reveal who the assasin is.

The iTC Starts Tomorrow!

I'm ready to change!

My goals for the challenge are:

• To exercise everyday
• Eat healthy
  
• Watch less TV, and read more books

iCiNG Transformation Challenge

I've sign up for the iCiNG Transformation Challenge . It consists on "taking control of our lives & our bodies in a concentrated way!". Starts on April 21st until May 18th. On that period of time I'm going to eat as healthy as I can, and exersice every day. If I’m able to acomplish this goal on that period of time, I'm sure it's going to be easier to commit to this healthy habits.

Now Im preparing everything for the ITC, taking my measures, weighting, and planing my meals. Im pretty exited, for a long time I wanted to do something like this but didn't have enough motivation.

I will be posting about how I'm doing with the challenge here.
