Feeling Renewed!

I have been feeling really good lately. My back is healing and I barely have back pain. I even got approved by my doctor that I can start working out like I used to, and that made me happy. I lost 8 pounds from the last 3 weeks. I probably would have lost more weight if I didn't eat as much at Thanksgiving, but I really just had one big plate. The food that I eat hasn't changed, I'm actually looking up healthy meals that are quick to make for lunch and even dinner. I love to try different foods and different workouts. My workouts have been intense! I am now in the hundreds when I do my crunches, sit-ups, leg lifts, squats, high knees, and jumping obliques. Two weeks ago I started my training for my 2-3 mile jog within 40 minutes. I can jog two miles within 50 minutes, I'm really close to my goal. I won't post my total weight loss yet because I want to wait until the last week to put it up so everyone can read whether or not I achieved my goal. Today, I am going to my Zumba class for two hours and afterwards, I am doing my ripped abs class. They are both dance classes and I love going to them. My passion for dance is as big as my passion for working out, they're both a big part of my life. :) More updates will be posted later!!!! :)
