Okay- so, day ten is down in the books. Ten days of sweating away with Jillian Michael's 30 day shred. After about day 5, the intense soreness started wearing off... though I still had some discomfort (as you would expect)... it wasn't terrible. The pain has served as a reminder that I'm training flab into muscle and burning calories while I do it. Yesterday, day nine- I decided that I was ready to move on to level two... a day early. I'd pretty much mastered level one and I've seen results already from my work. So, today, I started it up and began my new workout...which I will continue for at least the next 10 days. I can tell you that the 27 minute circuit training workout I endured today with Jillian made me HATE her. All the research that I've done on this video and the results... the whole cyber world discusses and pains over level two. I NOW understand WHY! She is nuts! Seriously, I wanted to hurt her. Now, on the flip side of that... as I"m watching inch by inch my muffin top disappearing... at those times I LOVE her. So. It is what it is. In the meantime, I am recording my progress... and there HAS been progress! My dieting... or calorie counting... or whatever you call it is also going well. There is some mental switch with me when I work out as hard as I have been... I think twice before I shove garbage in my mouth. I'm fighting to get off extra weight... I'm killing myself in sweat... so, I don't have to have sugars or fast foods. I'm okay with that. In fact, today as I hit the grocery store- I realized in hindsight, I spent the majority of my time (and budget) in the fresh foods- fruits and veggies. My kids are just going to love me! (insert sarcasm here). Ten days in- I feel energized, refreshed, and motivated. Full steam ahead!!!
Anyone else out there working on weight loss goals???
Get it girl! Proud of you for sticking to your guns and making this happen. : )
