Results don't come for free!

I finally got my rear in gear and started working out again. I don't even want to admit how long it's been.  Because of all the orders I've had, literally every spare minute was spent on crocheting (after all the mommy duties)   and so everything else went to the back burner. I am ready to take a break and get back to life.

Enter Jillian Michaels.  I picked up some weights, her 30 Day Shred dvd, and then told Jeff I would wake up as early as he needed to so he could do it with me.  I am highly motivated when I work with someone. It is SO much easier to get going. Not only that, but I had heard it really kicks butt and I wanted Jeff to see that.
oh boy he did. 
He used heavier weights than I did and he was seriously hurting.
We're going to feel it today and it feels great! 
Since the dvd is only 20 minutes I am determined to get it in every day.

I'm pairing it with a healthy eating plan and trying to add the eliptical in at least 3x's a week as well. 
We'll see if this baby weight can come off sooner rather than later.
It's going to be tough, but I know that once I get into my groove I can stay there, I've done it twice before! 
And as Jillian says...Results don't come for free.

Way to go!! It really does help to have a partner. I could never do it alone either. Good luck! I know you'll do great.
