Have any of you ever done the 30 Day Shred workout from Jillian Michaels? I've had the DVD for awhile just sitting around but in February I finally decided to actually do it. I've never been one to stay motivated very long or to keep working out more than a few days, but this time I've been doing good! I started February 8th and I'm still going strong, working out 5-6 days a week. I plan on starting to add running outdoors as soon as the weather gets nice as well!
Anyways, about the workout. It's been great! The first 4 or so days after I started were awful. I could barely move, but after that I got back into the swing of things. I'm still doing the workout because I don't really have much else to do at the moment. I wasn't sure if it would make that much of a difference to work out or not but it did for sure! I took before pictures of course because I need something to compare to when it doesn't seem like anything is happening. Oh and I haven't lost any weight since starting to work out at all, so that's a little disappointing. I know muscle weighs more than fat though, so that's probably why.
Here's the 30 day results for me. I didn't do the diet that they say to do with it, I tried to eat a little better but didn't really change much. That's my next thing to start working on though! Keep in mind that I've had two pregnancies (including twins) two c-sections and a third stomach surgery in the last two years, but I'm working hard to get my abs back again, if that's even possible! From the front you can't see much difference at all. Now I just need to figure out what to do next to keep working at it...
