New Chapter Begins

I have had a few rough weeks with my workout routine and eating right. So today is marking a start of a new day. I definitely have hit a plateau and I am ready to break that wall and get to my major goal weight. I have 8 more pounds!!! Only 8 more. (they seem to get harder and harder to come off...but I am not giving up and I am staying positive) So I am putting all of this out there for accountability and encouragement! :) I figured since the 30 Day Shred is hardcore I am going to really back off of sweets - totally if possible for these next 30 days. I want to really focus on my body and it is not worth kicking my butt and working so hard if I am just canceling out workouts with junk!!!

All of this to say....I am pleased to announce that I have officially started the 30 Day Shred!!!!!



Along side of training for the 1/2 marathon I really have wanted to get a good strength and weight routine going. After watching the Biggest Loser I secretly have wanted Jillian as a trainer. So when I saw this video, I have had high expectations. I will keep you updated along the course of this 30 days of how it goes, weight lost, work outs completed, how I am handling without sweets, how sore the shred makes me and more!

Day 1:
* 30 minutes elliptical
* 1 mile run
* The Shred Video! (Jillian yelled at me...and I loved it!)

As you may know... I love the 30 day shred and am currently finishing up the 3rd level. I went ahead and bought her "Trouble Zones" video to start next month!

Way to go, girl! I have the "Biggest Loser-Cardio Max" video and it's good too. However, after doing it 2 times I was SOOO sore that I decided to take a day off and never restarted it, oops.

I've heard great things about "The Shred"!!

I have the 30 day shred too!!! I wish we could do it together, Lindsey! I will confess I am inconsistent with it though...haven't really found the perfect spot for it in my day to day schedule

She yells at you in the video? I'll stick with Denise Austin. Go Lindz!!!
