More to Lose with Mixed Workouts
Sandi G.
Long Torso
I have been an off and on T-Tapper for a number of years. What I know is when I T-Tapp it WORKS, when I don't, it doesn't.
I signed up for past challenges but never finished. I don't know what made it "click" this time but I really enjoyed the challenge. I didn't look at it as a chore. After about the first two weeks though I had not lost any inches or pounds, I felt stronger, both physically and mentally. I was walking "taller", walking "thinner." I felt more confident. It felt good and was incentive to continue.
About a month before the challenge I woke up one morning and knew that was the day I was going to start eating healthy. I was tired, overweight and did not feel good. I decided I was not going to "diet" but was going to eat healthy - fresh vegetables, fruits and whole grains. When I signed up for the contest, it was my "aha moment": let's finally combine healthy eating with an exercise program that WORKS. Before, I would either exercise OR diet. My mindset was if I have to do one I will not do the other. It has been a winning combination.
I incorporated several different exercises into my routine. I did BWO+, SATI, HTF, Total Workout and Awesome legs. On the days I didn't want to workout I would tell myself ok but just do PBS, and usually, once I did that I would end up doing more! And on days I just didn't tapp I didn't self destruct, I just reminded myself that Less is More! Even though I started losing inches I still had self doubts. My vision of myself did not match what the tape measure said. What I saw in the mirror was like looking at a carnival mirror, very distorted. Then at work one day three people mentioned how good I was looking. They mentioned that besides looking thinner, I looked healthy and very proportioned.
So, in conclusion, besides the benefits of inch and weight loss, tapping has made me happy! Which makes me a winner already!
