My first attempt was a complete joke. But the next day I did it. I felt so amazing that I actually had tears in my eyes. I'm not sure now if it was from my sense of accomplishment or the pain I was feeling.
I must be really out of shape because I'm still feeling that pain. I started to do it the day after my amazing accomplishment and made it about as long as the first day. I swear I tried, but within the first few minutes my muscles were shaking and I just couldn't go anymore.
Is it normal to feel like your quads are going to rip through your skin? Maybe, but I haven't really enjoyed that feeling.
The other day I put in Cardio Max for the first time. I wasn't quite ready for Jillian again yet. Not ready for the hand weights when I obviously built some muscle using the weed eater over the weekend and am still sore from that.
Yes, I'm a wimp.
Anyway, for some reason I was thinking that something that Bob was leading would be easier. Again with the quads. I made it about half way before my legs were about to give out.
So I'm starting completely over. I need a redo. Week 1 starts over again today and I'm going to be serious about it. You know, since I have nothing better to do except for this because of this.
I'm not into the whole showing-the-world-my-out-of-shape-body-in-pictures type of deal. Be glad. But I have decided to tell my weight and goal weight. I don't know why I was so afraid to do that because really, it's not that bad. I mean, I wouldn't qualify for The Biggest Loser at all so I can't complain. I'm just still carrying around extra weight from twins who are now 8 1/2 years old and it's time for that to go. I will give you a total measurement instead of measurements from individual body parts because, dang, that's pushing the limit of too personal for my likings. But I will take the total of thigh, calf, arm, chest, hips and tummy combined.
Here goes nothin' and I will do my best to keep up with it and update once a week.
Starting today - 3/27/09
Total inches - 163 (wow, that sounds like a lot)
Weight - 166.2 (If you weigh yourself with Wii Fit, did you know that the wii remote weighs about .9? Put it down before you weigh in, I never have before today and was amazed)
Goal weight - 125-135

Okay, I'll be your buddy. I have been slacking on the 30 day shred myself and need to start over. I am not brave enough to post my weight but I will say that I have baby-baby weight from my back to back pregnancies. You're giving my motivation.
Ok, I have alot more weight to lose! :-( I am not even gonna say! This fall I went on slimfast (not strictly,basically just low cal) and lost about 25 lbs, and I have kept that off, but I have totally been slacking lately!! I need to lose weight before this summer. I have accepted that losing weight is a slow process for me, but I just have to STICK WITH IT. So anyway, I'm joining you! Maybe it will help me stay motivated...
I'm with you. I've been working out, but I swear I'm going to do my 30 day shred video!
Ace - Something for you on my blog :o)
i don't have the 30 day shred (thank GOD! it sounds awful!) but i've been working out, exercising, and eating right for the first time in my life and i've lost almost 20 pounds so far. it started out good, and now it's to about 1-2 pounds a week. boy i'd like a quick fix, but if this keeps up by the end of the year i'll have lost at least 50 pounds!
good job. keep at it. i'm right there with you! go ace! go ace! :-)
I dont have the 30 day shred either...it sounds challenging. I will have to look into that. I have completely been slacking...i have only used my "so exicited when I bought it" Wii fit twcie...yup twice. I have to get cracking on it soon! Good luck girl you can do it!
I think it's so cool that you're blogging all of this. We're all rooting for you! I've heard good success stories from Wii fit :)
Good luck next week!!!!!!!!!g
Good Luck Girl!! I have to start my weightloss journey. I keep saying it's the baby weight...ummm my baby is almost 9. hahaha!! So Monday morning, I am gonna do it! I am right here with ya girl!
I'm on day two of the shred, and my muscles definitely feel like they want to abandon ship and get out of my skin! It's really challenging for me, too, and I thought I was semi-in shape... Jillian really kills you! I'm tracking my Shred progress on my blog at http://thelastten.wordpress.com if you want a fellow Shredder to cheer you on!
