Back At It!

Hey fitness fanatics! I haven't posted on this blog for a while; my eating has been truly up and down and I've been a lazy azz bum. I have a few good reasons to get back at it and stay at it; a few health concerns along with two awesome trips planned for next year (hoping to get a third one in to a beach somewhere too), so I've gone back to go-to girl, Jillian Michaels!  She's a best, and some of her DVDs cause me to raise my eyebrows, but overall they're pretty good.  I have 30 day Shred, Killer Buns and Thighs, and Jillian Michaels Body Revolution (JMBR). So that's what I'm working on this month!



I've completed week one so far, and my energy has been so-so during the workouts. I think a lot of it has to do with not eating as clean I could eat.  Next week, my food diary will be pretty much the same, I need to sit down and find a menu that's easy to stick too, and won't take too much time out of my busy schedule. If any of you have suggestions, I'm open to it all.

The program is set up for 12 weeks (y'all pray to the fitness gods that I make it that far). each phase contains 4 strength dvd and one cardio dvd. Each phase lasts a month, and you workout with each strength training dvd for two weeks and the cardio dvd runs the entire month. The workouts get progressively harder each phase, so phase one is pretty easy for me. I've added cardio to get that extra burn.  This coming week I'll be adding some ab work into the mix.
