I started going to the gym last year, heck I even ran at the Shape Run in 2011 a mere 4 months after Jordan was born but I’m still fat. I know it’s a combination of me loving food, time and frankly being lazy. So the gym at lunch doesn’t work when I’m busy at work and the dogs Axl was getting fat. It’s been 2 months and I’ve woken up every Sat or Sun at 6.15 am to run, usually 5k with them. So yes, my lil toy breed poodle x yorkie can run 5 to 6km and usually faster than I can, Stomper, that crazy mutt at nearly 6 years (that’s 42 human years) can run and run and run AND RUN no worries.
Anyway, back to the point. I SUCK at diets, I hate them, but I figure I can ensure one healthy low carb, no fat meal and it’s easiest to be dinner. So I’ve got a list for this week of mostly salad based meals and I finally got my Jillian Michael’s Shred in 30. It’s short, sweet and OMG I was dying. I think it’ll work if I can get it done every single day. The only thing is, I used to go to the gym often and I loved weight based classes so I know how to stick my bum out and no knees beyond toes but if you haven’t attended a class or gone to the gym, this could be tricky and you might want to watch a few how to – lunge, squat etc first to prevent injury.
Wish me luck, it’s day two today!
