Jillian Michaels 30-Day Shred

Day One!
I am not excited, even though I want to be totally into this. I need a pep-up, like a concoction of something that makes me energized...any ideas? I took my Vitamin-C fizzy drink laced with ginseng, and my multi-vitamin, and went for it (ahem, to be totally honest here, first I ate a 7-layer bar....and eggs, and coffee with cream and sugar, so, not sure if there will be many results...). I did Level 1, and it was a good work out! Not as bad as I thought.
I couldn't find my 5-Lb. hand weights, so I used (shamefully) black beans in cans..hahaha...humorous. In other words, I am not at the top of my game here. I couldn't take my measurements because I can't find our measuring tape, but I am guessing my measurements are this: Jiggly, loose, 10-12+ lbs of extra holiday chub. I know this: I weigh almost 130, and only two pairs of my jeans fit at the moment, so I have been wearing stretch pants under flowy shirts to conceal my extra-love going on. I want this pretty bad!! I want especially to fit back into my regular pants without buttons flying into the toilet when I attempt to button my pants back up in restaurant bathrooms, and for shirts to look decent on me without Spanx sucking my rolls in underneath (too much information, I know, I know).
I will keep all of you amazing fans updated on how this diet workout plan goes, if only to keep me accountable. (Speaking to my two blog-followers...hello!)
Hopefully by tomorrow I can find my weights so I don't have to resort to using canned goods, and maybe I will have started off by NOT indulging in a treat that is made up of pure sugar, butter, and chocolate......to be continued....

  2. um, my dear, way to go. seriously. i'm starting my healthy eating plan this week that i started last may and have not been doing since october. something about the fall/winter that makes me want to eat crap. i'm also starting up again on my two hour/day workouts. i want to be thin in twenty ten!

    ps. 130 is nothing! especially with how tall you are my love! i was 130 a year ago and i'm only 5'3... and i didn't think i was chunky at all. although, i am glad that i weigh 15+ (give or take a little since Christmas) pounds less than that!

    good luck. and i'll keep you accountable if you keep me accountable!
    love ya!

  3. Ladies, thank you for your sweet words! Kass...I'd LOVE to keep each other accountable in 2010!! We can do it!
    Annie...YES!! Do it!! You can buy the Jillian Michael's 30-Day shred for 7 bucks at Costco, or Target, and 3lb. weights, and GO! I am pretty psyched, I feel good after doing it just one day (I mean, mentally...)
    Love you girls!
