Helloooo fabulous ladies 🙂
I am so happy I finished the 30 Day Shred for January, doing Ripped in 30. It was an amazing journey. We’re already on February Shred now, I have 7 ladies altogether in the February shred group. It’s 28 days, and I will be doing 30 Day Slim Down program using Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred videos and No More Trouble Zone + Banish Fat Boost Metabolism videos.
Back to Ripped in 30. I liked the video, but as expected, the results are not as good as 30 day shred. The thing is, with Ripped in 30, you’ll get the optimum result if you follow the eating plan as well. However, it’s not very applicable when you’re living in middle east, especially in Jordan. Most of the food in the meal plan is not available here, and finding a substitute is another story. Plus, by now we have establish how I will not go on any diet, except for healthy eating habit.
I did 5 workout per week, 1 week for each level.. My favorite is level 2 workout. After I finish all 4 levels in 28 days.. I go back to level 3 and level 2 for day 29 and day 30 respectively. And I notice I have better endurance, I have better form for the workout. The same thing with any other jillian’s program, after some time, you will have better form and better endurance. I guess that means… better result?
Overall.. I loss some inches and 2 pounds ad 4.5″ of the measured sites ( mind you I didn’t follow the meal plan) I’m sure that doesn’t sound very impressive.. But I personally am very proud of myself and happy ith the result. Fitting better into some clothes, people telling me I look live I’ve lost some weight.. And yeah I can not emphasize more on how important it is to have a before & after photos. That’s where you really see the results. hehehe…
If you plan to lose weight the healthy way, and still don’t know when and how to start.. I’d tell you Start NOW and just pick a program and stick to it. Get a support group and work your way into it with your group. I chipped (is that even the right word to use?) my running shoes on day 30. LOL. This is me not doing justice to the shoes. It’s recommended to use cross-trainers instead of a running shoes when you do workout DVD exercise.. yup..my bad.. Will go get a cross-trainer this weekend.
thank you air pegasus+ 27, I will not abuse use you anymore after this. you deserve the treadmill.
For february I’ll keep a workout journal and publish it after we finish february shred. Till next time, stay fabulous!
