For a while, I was pretty faithful about doing the 30 Day Shred every day with Jillian Michaels, and yes, I was seeing results! Not in terms of weight, but I was getting visible muscle tone in my arms and abs and I was definitely feeling stronger and more fit. Then I got a respiratory infection and was hacking up my lungs every day and night for about two weeks. It's been two weeks since I recovered and I still haven't managed to consistently get back on track. Of course, getting off track for me also meant I lost motivation to watch what I eat and so it was no surprise that I gained all my inches back already.
I decided I really want to do more Jillian Michaels because every review I've read of her DVDs says how much she totally kicks your butt and I admit to having become addicted to an intense workout. It just feels so good, as you're lying on the floor recovering, to know that your ass was beaten down to a sweaty mess! However, after having done almost a month of the 30 Day Shred, I was getting bored of the workouts. I needed some variety if I was to keep my motivation up. So I decided to try the 30 Day Slimdown program. It involves acquiring two more DVDs: No More Trouble Zones and Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism. I tried the Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism last Friday and I couldn't finish it! Yes, it did feel rather pathetic, but I am looking forward to the day I can say, I did it!
So anyways, I did Day 1 on the program, which starts with Level 1 of the 30 Day Shred and you know what? It felt too easy! Can you believe it? I mean, it was a good sweaty workout and all, but I felt like I could definitely go more intense and push myself harder. This is great! I definitely feel like although I don't feel like I look any better, I still must be improving my fitness to be able to feel this way. Yay! So today is another segment of Level 1 of the 30 Day Shred, but since it was so easy for me yesterday, I think I'll do a Level 2 today.
