It DOES get easier, seriously.

I stopped a lot less and found myself pushing through the end of most of the exercises. Still a bit of difficulty with some though, especially arms.

And at the end, I could only do like half the bicycle crunches, I kept stopping. 

Oh well, I did it. 3 days down.

 I know how you feel! I’m on Day 3 of Level 1 as well :)

Level 1 Day 3 complete.

And I can barely sit down. I love it.

Day 2 complete

and i feel like i can’t move out of this sitting position. sheesh that’s a killer work out.

She’s too perfect for words.

Day 1 of 30 day shred today.

Heat oil in pot over medium heat.  Add onion and cook 7 minutes, or until starting to brown.  Stir in garlic, curry paste and peanut butter.  Cook 1 minute.  Add coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, and sugar.  Bring mixture to a simmer. Stir in potatoes, carrots and bell pepper.  Simmer 10 minutes.  Add green beans and basil, and cook 2 minutes more.

I need to kick start my ass again. I’ve gotten kind of complacent in my working out and I have definitely been taking it easier on myself than I was before vacation.

So tomorrow I think I am going to start Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and feel the pain as everyone seems to.

….And I can’t wait! Already measured myself and took some pictures so I can compare if I lose inches like everyone else seems to be doing!

Dream bum!

• You’re going to have to pee every 20 min.
• You’re going to kick your own ass through workouts you kinda (really actually) hate until its sore for days and somehow you’re going to love and adore it?
• You’re going to have this unexplainable, insatiable urge to post pictures of everything you eat on the internet.

Hahaha.

Haha I felt like this after my first day doing the real workouts this week!

Mybodygallery.com just spent quite awhile looking on there, how can someone 5’9 weigh 115lbs? Maybe they have a super tiny frame, because my goal is 160 and I think I will be pretty thin then. Crazy, and some killer body envy feelings.

But I can do this! I will do this. Just takes time.and dedication.
