Widdle My Middle
Ange at Oh She glows started and awesome 30 day challenge that is going to help get my belly stronger and in better shape! Obviously I have been not followed through with my 30day shred challenge. BUT not because I don't want to do it. I simply can't right now. It has been almost two weeks since my last shred and I don't plan on doing it until my foot is better. (Sorry Shreders). I hope you will still keep shredding without me and keep me posted until I can get back at it. I was excited to read about Widdle My Middle and am personally up for the challenge. It is definitely something I can do with my foot pain. Doing core work everyday is a great way to strengthen your back as well, which it seems we are all in need of doing!!
Here is HER challenge:
When? The Challenge takes place from Nov 11th until Dec 10th 2009.
Who? Anyone can join!
What? Strengthen your core and get that belly looking good!
1) PICTURES: Before, half way, and after pictures on Nov 11th, Nov 25th, and Dec. 10th, respectively.
2) MEASUREMENTS: Before, half way, and after measurements of my ‘smallest’ waist (above belly button for me), widest waist (3"-4" lower approx.), and hips (over fullest part of butt)- same dates as above.
3) CORE WORK: 6-10 minute core workout, 5 days a week, doing the following exercises:
- Plank
- Side plank
- Plank with elbows on stability ball
- Stability Ball Jackknifes
- Stability ball roll out
- Plank Rotations
I have already completed day 1 and 2. They were both great ab workouts! My abs were burning and my foot felt fine. I did make sure I was wearing shoes to give my foot the support it needed.I took my measurements and #1 picture last night. I asked Dave if he would join me and his answer was…uh, maybe. I asked again and he said no. Just give him time…he'll come around.
SO….Are any of you doing the "Widdle My Middle" challenge? If not want to join in???
Update:
We aren't moving in tomorrow. TEARS!!! I think we won't close until Monday or Tuesday of next week. Oh well, what do you do. Great thing is the owners are SUPER cool and don't mind if we proceed with the scheduled deliveries we have tomorrow. So we will be getting our Fridge, couch and tv stand tomorrow. I think we will slowly start to move in a few other things too! We are lucky they are so great about it!

Oh and you know I am in! before pics…ACK! I've lost 3 lbs though since I last weighed myself! Super excited about that. I am still shredding…it's day 12 now. (so basically whatever I do at night for my exercise I call shred) just as long as I stay consistent!
sorry about your not closing…but yah…it will happen and great that you can get things delivered! So really you're able to do somethings.
I am super excited for the whittle your middle thing. I was already doing regular planks (for my arms I thought) and getting 6-10 minutes a day is easy! (and I can do them while I am upstairs chasing JJ which is a total bonus)
I don't get the " stability ball roll out" one though…I guess I need to watch the video again!
happy friday chickie dee.

Whittle My Middle? So cute! I love a 30 day challenge. Hang in there with the closing process! I know it can be totally frustrating (we bought our condo this summer and saw the full spectrum of delays), but you'll be settled soon enough. Have a great weekend!

Bummer about the move in date! That's great that the owners are letting you keep the deliveries on schedule though! That could have been a huge headache!
