30 Day Shred (Day 10)

This morning I finished day 10 of the shred! So what if I'm a few days behind? I'm on a sort of vacay and I'm not at home!

So what are the results?

I'm still huffing and puffing and struggling, especially with the first circuit (push ups + squat and press and jumping jacks + jump rope). But after I get started, I'm fine. The workout itself is still very challenging so I'm not sure if I should stick with level one, or move on to level two.

I am seeing some changes in my body. My tummy is definitely flatter (I've been telling people that instead of looking 5 months pregnant, I look 6 weeks pregnant! LOL) and there is a bump in my arm!! Eva saw it! She's a witness!

I will probably take tomorrow off because my left ankle is hurting and I'm limping around. I need to get an adjustment or something. When I rotate my ankle, it cracks and feels crunchy, not good.

Still haven't decided if I will go another 10 days with level one or move to level two, either way, update will come at day 20!

30 Day Shred

In my effort to get in shape and to stop being a lazy ass, I bought the Skinny Bitch Fitness DVD last month.



Prior to that, I had never, ever worked out. It was a place to start! So 6 weeks into it, I'm still breaking a sweat but not feeling sore like I did in the beginning. I'm also not seeing much of a difference in my body so.... I looked into Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred.



Today is day one! I'd have to say it's pretty challenging for someone like me, a total beginner! My legs were burning, my arms were burning, I was huffing and puffing and I wanted to quit! But, I stuck with it!

I plan on following the workout for the whole 30 days (minus the days that I work a full shift counting crap and just come home and pass out) and will update at the 10 day, 20 day and finally, the 30 day mark!

I just watched the Level 2 and.. it's intimidating lol.

Wish me luck! =)
