Day one of "The project"

It's official. It's the end of week two since I started on the ViSalus challenge, and the first day of the jack sprat project which involves "The Bearded One" as well.  I was hoping to move the rivet on my vi-braclet to the 10 pound hole but alas I came up a 1/2 pound short. I will get there this week for sure. I'm sure that my progress will probably be a little slower in the next seven weeks but I know that if I stick to the challenge I will get there. 

The "Bearded One and I have different goals for this project. He wants to maintain his weight and add muscle mass. He will be using the vi-shakes, with  milk, bananas and blueberries for the extra protein and carbs that he needs. I will be using the vi-shakes as meal replacements using unsweetened almond milk, ice and a variety of low carb fruits and flavors. The "bearded One" has devised a workout plan for me that involves climbing on to the elliptical and working my way up to thirty minutes, which I used to do quite easily. Now however I'm starting with 5 minute increments. It just about does my chubby self in. He has also prescribed some weight training ala "Jorge Cruise" 

Day 1

 

 

My nemesis "The machine"  sure it looks innocent enough here, but trust me it's a killer.

So here we go I think I'm actually going to enjoy the ride. This whole 90 day challenge thing is quite exciting. Taking life in doable chunks and being able to actually measure progress who would of thought.

 

Rivet

Next week I'm gonna move that rivet!
