The end of May has come and gone and sadly I did not meet my resolution goal. I got down 6 pounds, but the last 4 were extremely hard to lose. Basically I just gave up. In the meantime, I have gained 4 back so I am still net 2 for the year. Some people think that is a win, but for me it is a complete fail. I am on track for gaining the 2 back plus more before the end of the year. Then I will be back to where I started the first of the year. It's time for a change...
For the past few weeks, my co-worker, Erika, has been saying she wanted to lose some weight. Her birthday and a beach trip are coming up so she wanted to use those events as motivation. She brought a couple of her work-out dvd's to work yesterday to show us just how intense they are. After seeing The Biggest Loser workout, I set my eyes on the 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels: 20 minute workouts everyday. Not too bad, I thought. So we decided to start the dvd together; a buddy system really is the best way to go. We set our start date for tomorrow, Sunday the 22nd.
I have to confess, though, I started it today. I have been SUPERLY lazy tired recently and I know it's from not proper exercise. I hope that my workout today will help my sleeping tonight to improve. I know that I slept great during the first half of the year. It has to be the workout!
We will see where this takes me. I am not setting a goal of "I want to lose this amount of weight" or "I want to wear this size clothing". I simply want to do the 30 Day Shred and take a look at the results afterwards. This is my pressure-free work-out routine.
