My 1st day: I was SO winded! And I coughed and coughed...likely from growing up with smokers. But it felt great any ways :)

We went ice fishing, but I spent about an hour in the car warming up.

If you can believe it, I did the program in OUR CAR! haha

I had to be creative. The only one I couldn't do was bending thigh stretch.

It seems amazing to me that some people can do it in less than `12 minutes!

It took me 50 minutes!

The last couple days, I did about half of the exercises 2x a day (especially the face exercises, and butt and tummy ones.

I will do them all twice a day when I can fit it into 15 minutes :)

Just finished! I'm so surprised how much I improved on my 3rd day!

It still took long- 40 minutes, but that's 10 minutes shorter than yesterday.

My toe pull, side stretch, pretzel, and bending thigh stretch were much more flexible.

I hardly coughed, and only needed a couple breaths between sets.

I practiced breathing while doing the splits. I improved quite a bit on my left side :)

I'm working on kickovers off a wall. I hope to practice breathing along with the bow, to get strength and stretch on my torso.

Just wanted to add that I heard about this program in the 90's. I was intrigued, but didn't act on it.

Then I was recently researching o2 and sinus infections. Someone posted that all that deep breathing helped so much.

Also, I bought her 'Be a Loser' book, for a buck today. It's out of print....

The hardest exercise for me are the butt ones, but they are getting easier.

Still coughing a bit, but I'm no longer winded.

I'm looking forward to measuring on Sunday :)

Just finished my 1st week, and lost WAY more than I thought I could.

I lost .5 inch from my arms.

Nothing from my chest.

2 inches from my natural waist!

Nothing from my widest waist (belly button)

Lost 1" from my hips.

.25 inch from my thighs.

And I measured my calves because I didn't want them bigger! And I lost 3/4 inch from them!

That's 4 and 1/4 inches :)

I think my arms moved lymph, which happens with increased oxygen.

My natural waist is much more defined. Some of this loss is because today is day 18 off of gluten.

But my muscles are much tighter, and I can see my abs.

And my hips, thighs and calves probably all moved lymph out.

I noticed this week that my arch in my back is much more prominent. I'm gaining flex :)

Here is the google book preview to 'Be a Loser':

I'm 5'-8", and my weight has always been in my healthy BMI (125-160).
Winter is higher, so I would love to be able to control it with exercise. I gain love handles from cooked starches in winter!

The last couple days, my lungs, and muscles are so much stronger. I can now do the program in 18 minutes, 2x a day.

The butt exercises that used to hurt, are now comfortable :)

I excited to measure on Sunday!

The best part is that all that o2 is cleaning me out. My eyes look much bluer, and whites are whiter.
