30DS - Day 6

Dear Jillian Michaels,

I didn't want to like you. Until last week I hated you because your game on the Wii led me to a fractured bone in my foot. I was happy holding my grudge against you, and I had no reason to let it go.

But then, I started hearing more and more about the success that people have had with your 30 Day Shred series. SERIOUS results. So I figured, ok lady - I am going to put our past behind me and maybe we can at least be acquaintances.

One week later, and I am ready to ask you to be my BFF. This Shred is no joke, and it delivers. FAST.

Let me tell you about my week. On Wednesday I did Day 5. It is getting a little easier - the cardio circuits are much easier, and I am considering increasing my weights in the strength moves.

Yesterday, I took a rest day. I just had a long week, and I needed a day off. So today was Day 6. The strength moves are getting easier and I am pushing harder on the ab moves. Overall it went really well.

And then

I took my measurements. I know, I know. It's only been a week. I honestly didn't have high expectations. It's only been 6 days, right?

Ha! Here are my measurements today:
Waist - 35.5 in (-1 inch)
Hips - 41 in (-.75 inch)
Arms - 12 (-.5 inch on each arm)
Thighs - 23.5 (-.5 inch on each thighs)

In six days I have lost almost 3 inches. IN SIX DAYS!!!

That is amazing. And just what I needed to see today.

And that is why I am ready to make Jillian Michaels my BFF. At the very least I forgive her for my fractured bone ;)

Have a good weekend everyone!!!
