30 day Shred

I've never been one to diet or stick to a strict exercise program in an effort to loose weight (or fat rather). I also am not one to set new years resolutions, especially any about being healthier than I normally try to do.

Well, I'm changing those starting Monday.

What brought this on is that I recently acquired the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred DVD and have been thinking about trying to get into better shape for a while now. The DVD arrived today (Friday, 1.6.12) and I am feeling really motivated that I can use this as a tool to live my life better.

I also am going to try out part of this "slow carb" diet that I found and modify it to fit my needs. It just sounds interesting and contains foods I enjoy. Also, I like the fact that there is a "Dieters gone wild" day and I CAN eat the white carbs I love as long as it is within 1.5 hours of finishing my workout. I probably won't be super strict to it as my life may demand, but I will give it a decent effort to supplement my workouts. Also, I will not likely cut out fruit because I think it would be important to keep fruit with working out and not just dieting as it is set out to be.

Wish me luck and we'll see the difference after 30 days of my Shred!

Before:
*I will insert pictures*

Weight (before eating, first thing in the morning, only wearing under-clothing): 158 lbs. Which surprised me! Usually during the day I weigh about 164, so to be 6 lbs lighter because of missing clothes and food is kinda cool.
