30 Day Slim-down-starting feb14/11

ileana84

Hahaha Sooooorry!! Hahaah. Yeah I like the cold, but cold for us is 40's. Ive experienced 15's and 10's and would want to live some place like that. It was actually in the 80's today. Well besides that, Ive gotta get my workout done lol

Good job ladies we are doing this

Val_Gets_Fit

Hiya girls good morning!!! im probably going to get a heads start on the 6pack video. Miami is already getting super warm and beach weather is here, so Ive gots to start asap! Lol hope you gals dont mind... Woooo today is the Quick workout!! Hope everyone has fuuun!!

I could use some Miami warmth right now! I hate the cold. I really should live somewhere else, but my husband hates summer. So, he wins, apparently. :laugh: I tell myself that my living in New England is good for weight loss b/c my body has to expend more energy (and burn more calories) to keep warm. :laugh: Oh, a girl can hope....

Definitely get a head start on the 6 pack video! Let us know how it is. I tired it once, but, well, I won't need to wear a bathing suit for another 5 months, probably. I can hold off a bit. haha

So, just finished today's workout--Quick Trouble Zones!! I love this workout. I love BFBM more, but this one always makes me feel good afterwards. After spending 30 days loving 30 Day Shred, it happens to be my least fave of the Slimdown plan. Really strange...

I was going to try to squeeze in tomorrow's workout today so I coud take a rest day before Friday's weigh-in, but that isn't going to happen. I am going to try to wake up super early and get it done in the a.m. and load up on water during the day to try to flush out any water retention. I'm soooo nervous about weigh-in!!!!

Have a great night!!! Hope today was a good one!:flowerforyou:

Great job!!!! Don't worry... I'm becoming obsessed with JM. I took my daughter to the bookstore yesterday and happened to go down a diet and fitness aisle. I stopped and smiled at a JM book. My daughter looked at me and I sighed, "Oh, I love her. She's my role model." :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I think I'd do the same thing! That's really funny!

love the look of this rotation

ileana84

Ewwwwww Planks!!! lol Hahaha Shes a killer man. I did only 20 mins of the QTZ, but Im happy cause I previously had tummy issues but Im super happy I pulled through. I love it!

Quick Trouble Zones done! Finished it technically yesterday...i just didn't get online till tonight...well this morning..i'm up so late!

Anyone else hating the "Surrender" move..omg that has to be the hardest move in any of these workouts for me! Back to level 2 of the shred tomorrow..yay planks:noway:

up2me2lose20

I HATE those surrenders! They make my muscles feel like jello.

Val_Gets_Fit

Yes, those surrenders kill me! I know we only have to do 4 or 5 of them, but it always feels like they go on forever! :frown:

Also, there's the tricep move (I forgot what it is called) where your arms are back and can't go in front of your butt..... That one has been killing my legs. My triceps seem to like it, but I keep losing my balance for some reason. I guess my legs are so tired at that point.

I havn't ordered Jillian Micheals Ripped in 30 days, but i should looks fun! I have seen shred it with weights at the supermarket, so I could easily pick it up And I have the 6weeks 6pack, so I could be up for next challenge

And I totally agree with you, challenges like this keep me going, doing it with a group that is so supportive and fun is so encouraging

lucielu2

We are doing great, keep up the good work.Tommorow will be a hard one -i thought it was gonna kill me last time --lol but love all tahst cardio and gives u a break from weight.

see u then hun , have fun

up2me2lose20

I haven't ordered her new DVD yet. But I have the Sred it W/Weights and I can easily find the 6 wk 6 pack. I guess I don't have much experience with other work out dvd's but so far I have not been disappointed with JM. And ther results--gosh, I just can't believe it. And I'm not starving myself at all. I EAT!

I have a pair of pants that I have never been able to fit into (bought them a few years ago for a good $$ and just have been sitting in my closet because they were way too tiny --low on the hips, size 10 Old Navy jeans and for years couldn't even get the button to meet up with the button hole, lol -- and I slipped them on 2 weeks ago and they fit with a little muffin top, so I wouldn't wear them 'cause I hate that look. I put them on today and they about slipped off my hips! I dunno! I still feel FAT around the middle, but something must be working. I still have blubber to lose. But I see a 140 on the scale in my near future and I don't think I've been that small since before my daughter was born 11 years ago!!! CRAZY.

Sorry for the book!!

ileana84

Eeek just realized the the BFBM ON demand is only 20 mins. Oh wellll....I tryi to get the full length done next time

At up2me2lose20...THATS AWESOME. Im glad you're doing so well.

That is wonderful! Congratson having such great success with the JM workouts! Fitting into clothes that we've been keeping in our closets for years is always the best feeling! I have a few outfits I hope to fit into soon too!

Ladies , did you look at what we need to do on DAY 28 - BANISH FAT, BOOST METABOLISM & QUICK TROUBLE ZONES
Jillian is going to kill us that day -LOL

Val_Gets_Fit

@up2me2lose20 : Congrats!!

Well, I took yesterday off as a rest day (and a "blah" day), so I had to do 30 DS L2 this morning and BFBM this evening. I did it!!! I can't say how much I love BFBM. I just love the endorphin rush you get from that. I'm beginning to not like 30DS so much in comparison after falling in love with it during the 30 Day Shred challenge. :laugh:

Confession: I got kind of lazy with the squat jumps and scissor jumps today. :embarassed:

Hope you all had a great day!!! :flowerforyou: Go us! :laugh:

lucielu2

Hope u ladies are having a good weekend

ileana84

Hey hey there girls!! Hope all of you are having a great weekend. I definately did see Day 28... :sad: We are gonna be hurtingggg lol Brace yourselves girls! LOL.

BFBM is by far my fave!! I love the amazing feeling of kickboxing plus the adrenaline as well.

Val_Gets_Fit

Hey, ladies!!! Day 13 is done (unless I've lost track of the numbers or can't count :laugh: ). Felt good during NMTZ today. I managed to get it done in the morning.

What are you all planning on doing on the rest day tomorrow? I'm thinking of going for a hike (even though there may be snow here). I have cabin fever and NEED to get outside, even if it means layering myself in clothing and braving frost bite to do it. :laugh:

BUMP
I am on day 4 level 1 of Thirty day shred. Was wondering what I would do after I completed the the 30 days. Now I know!! Thanks for the suggestion. Good luck to all of you. Can't wait the hear the results!

ileana84

^ thanks We'll definately rant about how awesome/crazy the challenge was ....

Well today I have to do my exercise since I didnt do mine yesterday but after that Im hitting up the beach. Im in need of some good ol sunbathing and just peace. I hope everyone enjoys their rest day today

ileana84

For some reason I really really dont like NMTZ lol After 25 mins Im waiting to switch it over. Today was one of those days, I did 25 mins, then mixed up my exercise with zumba,yoga and indian dancing.



Hope everyone starts off the week well. I know I will ( I just found out my sister is having another baby) Yeyyyy!!!
