\"\"<\/a>On Monday, we told how one of our readers is taking the \u00a0NYLean25 April Challenge on behalf of HarlemCondoLife.com. \u00a0She provides her second diary entry. And based on her words, NYLean25 is getting demanding and at the same time promising.<\/p>\n

Dear HarlemGal,<\/em>
\n I’d like to first say a quick thanks to my fellow HCL readers for the comments<\/a> they posted so far. It’s a big help to me and I want them to know it. Keep those comments coming in!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I went to my second class at NYLean25 at Twirl Lounge in Harlem<\/a>. The class was so full the moved us to the Kennedy Community Center in Harlem.<\/em><\/p>\n

Day two proved to be much harder than day one. I didn’t realize just how sore my body was until I worked it out again! This session we focused on legs, so there were lots of squats, leg lifts and all that fun stuff. Each week focuses on a different area, so one class will be legs,\u00a0another will be\u00a0arms, followed by\u00a0core. All sessions include high intensity cardio intervals, which is no joke!<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>I must admit I wasn’t very good on the diet that goes along with the program for the first few days. I hadn’t gone food shopping with my work schedule packed, so I was improvising with stuff I already had. The diet consists of a high fiber, low carb breakfast, non-creamy soup and\/or salad for lunch and dinner, and a healthy snack in the morning and afternoon. I finally went food shopping. Currently, I’m stocked up with the right food. I have no excuse!<\/em><\/p>\n

NYLean25 gave me a list with nine weight loss tips. \u00a0I will share them with you throughout my diary entries. \u00a0Here is tip #1: drink a minimum of 8 glasses of COLD water a day. \u00a0You will burn around 150 calories of energy to heat the cold water to body temperature while simultaneously boosting your metabolism. \u00a0(And it’s good for your skin and hair too.) I could go for that!<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

More soon…<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

Best,<\/em>
