Fitness and stuff
So, I'm nearly halfway through the 30 Day Shred. I'm not really feeling a difference, but I know it usually takes a while until your body starts to acknowledge the fact that you have decide you don't want to be a fat slob anymore. I have over 2 months to go until the dreaded wedding, but I'm concerned that won't be enough time to fit in my dress. I should probably start thinking about other options.
I'm also thinking about what to do when the 30 days are up. I can't really start again, unless I just want to do level 3 (or level 2 and level 3, since I hear level 3 is actually easier than level 2) every day for another month and a half. I might order another Jillian Michaels DVD. Maybe No More Trouble Zones and Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism. But maybe not. My fear is that I'm not going to be willing/able to do an hour a day instead of half an hour a day. I may get Shred It with Weights. I'll have to ask the mother if she wants to sponsor my weight loss, since she'll be the one paying for a new dress if I can't fit in mine. $40 or so for a few DVDs and a kettlebell seems like a steal compared to the cost of a dress fit for my sister's goddamn wedding.
The other option is trying to start running again. I'd like to do this at some point, and I understand that once you have built up some muscle and lung capacity that running is easier. But I don't think I want to waste my half hour a day building up my running ability, at least not until after the wedding.
