Exercise Day 1 of 30 day shred It was a 20 minutes cardio and strenght training///Very difficult but really good~(the instructor is the one from the biggest looser so i really hope i get some toning done~)

Day 2 Week 4 of C25K



hi everyone!I must say 1st that i have been awake from 5 " 30 am////////////////SO i am dead beat....I will come on tommrow morning while Marios is still asleep to catch up on all your diarys


Now i have had a very long day and the time now is 11"15 pm.I havent really stopped!Nut i do feel good!!!!

Last night i came across the 30day shred and the reviews where very good!So i found it and i did the 1st day today.I will repeat the same exercises for 10 days then i go to level 2,then level 3 and when the month is over it promises to make a huge difference.Thing is it must be done every day,its only ok to take 1 day off a week...Thats a HUGE challenge for me!

Then at 9pm when my husband got home i went to the stadium near by and did day 2 of week 4.It was SOOOO difficult...When dos it get better????

The app didnt work AGAIN on my phone but i remembered the time i had to run/walk so i used another app i have and apparently i burnt 347cals in 30 minutes,and i was jogging at 4,9-5,00 miles / hour so you understand that i am NOT running nor am i walking its really slow.But i cant seem to speed things up yet.....When will i get souper fit?I am so jealous of all these men i see running so nice in their SHORTS!!!!OMG~~IT IS FREEZING!~!!!!!!

To be honest when i saw the app didnt work i Nearlly left and went back home....But im glad i stayed /////Plus in themorning i was cleaning the night club....So im off to sleep dont think i'll even see a movie im so tired.
 
Hi Jess, Well done on the exercise sweets & getting back on track. It doesn't have to be running if you're not enjoying it at the moment. Maybe it's best for you to do something inside while it's so cold & try again when the weather warms up. Just a thought. Either way, it's really good to hear you feeling a bit more positive. Don't ever give up sweetie. We're a team & we're in this for the long haul! Lots of love xoxo Cate
 
Goodmorning!!!!!!!!!!i am in pain!!!!!My arms,shoulders ,legs,thighs,the lot!!!But it feel great!!!!!!That jilliane workout yesterday really did some serious work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I cant ait to do it today!!!!

I have invited my older sister with her boyfriend here for lunch/early dinner so i am off to go cook!

Will be back tonight though~


Cate!its great to be bad and exercising!!!I felt EXACT the same way as you when you said that getting sick at xmass was SCARY cause you understood how it feels to not be able to move about.Well you didnt say it in those words but that was the meaning right?I just hop we can all have good health,its really the most important thing in life.

AH running!its not that i dont like it!I do like it i feel strong while running and after its just that i find it difficult.I am wondering when does it get easier?I reember the first 90 bseconds seemed like hell at start,now i can manage 3 minutes and feel fine.But 5 minutes????no its to much i really struggle...how unfit can i be????

i think of the day i have to do 20 minutes and i really dont think i will be able to do it...well anyway...I hope i manage it the feeling is great!!its like i win a battle every time my session is over!!!!
 
A:hurray: YEEAAAHHH for pain for a good reason!! lol. So glad you are feeling better!! Sorry I have been MIA for a few weeks...I love this place...just not enough time in the day some days.

Love that you feel so empowered after your workout!! Thats how I feel about going to the gym...this sense of control that I haven't had in a long long time.

Sending hugs and good wishes and I hope to not be gone so long this time!! xoxox :)
 
AHeya sweetie :)

So sorry i have been neglecting you but i am rubbish when i have the grumps but i'm all good now, serious period pain but that's ok :)

Ooooooh what is this 30 day shred?!?! i will have to check that out, sounds awesome :) And bloody hard! :eek:

Well done on keeping going with the running. It does get easier, all of a sudden you notice that it's easier to breath etc. I did find it hard still right to the end sometimes but some i felt totally awesome and breezed it. Now i am not even out of breath after running for an hour. The way the app works is to keep pushing you, ok you can do 3 mins, lets make you do 5, then 8, you will find it easier the longer you run. Even now i really dont like the first 10 mins or so, after that it is easy. Keep at it my sweet, you will be one of those woman others look at thinking 'how does she make it look so effortless' YOU WILL!!!!!

I love it when i ache cos i have worked out! It is such an awesome feeling. I am starting a 'toning' class this wednesday and i am sooooo looking forward to that, i'm gonna do a run at the gym first too so mega workout night :)

Love and hugs Xxx
 
I wont wright down my food cause i have been really naughty..............lets say i have had a bit of choc cake...............hmmmm 2-3 bits of it!!!!!!!!!!!!Plus food............No workouts my sister just left and its nearly midnight.

Will be good tommorow plus i get to go running and i'll do day 2 of the Shred!

Kate!!!!I guess ill get used to 5 minutes and think that 6 -7 minutes are hell!Then get used to 6-7 minutes and think 8-9 minutes are hell!!!!i think though that at some pont it goies from 8 minutes straight to 20minutes.But then it goes back again............................Wll i guess they know best,they are the pros~~~~!!!!

Didnt know you where going to start toning classes!!!!!!Thatsa fantastic cant wait for your posts on that!!!Wow we are really active arent we>!!!?!!!going to get super fit this year and have super figures this hot summer to come~~~~
 
Hi Jess, What are we up to lately? Enough of the sweets gals!! We're back on track!! GO TEAM!!! (Boy, that workout sounds like a killer!) You & Kate are going to be well & truly ready for Summer by the time it comes around & I should be by next Summer (Dec) as well & ready for our trip to the Greek Islands....*sigh*..... I'm starting to get really excited! How hard is this shred Jess & is it worth buying or would it kill me? Which DVD do you have? xoxo Cate
 
yeap

i agree enought with the sweets!!!!!im feeling really the need to eat salad today!unfortunatly im having leftover from yesterday that is spagghetti with red sause and a lettuce salad i'll make...but good thing is i just did day 2 of 30d-shred.OMG i thought i was going to die at some point....

Cate i dont know your fitness level you can try it see if you like i like he fact that it is not just a workout dvd its like a plan for a month/it has 3 levels.Level one you repeat for the first 10 days level two for the next ten days and level 3 till the end.Also i like the fact that she keeps saying that great abbs are not for Free and you CANT rest through the workout cause its just 20 minutes and you can afford to rest////Also she saysthat she has 400 pound people doing the jumping jacks so you can too.It really makes me keep going hearing her!!!!


ps..i had loads of chocoate cake last night after posting and my period also came this morning......
 
im still hanging in there!!!I am going to do day 5 of the 30DAY shred , today.

Omg it is so difficult for me,not all of it,but parts of it like the lunges....it burnssss....ita baaaaadddd~~~And the push ups...and the bicycle crunches are a killer.....I was really in pain yesterday.I didnt think i would make it through.

I also did day 1 , week 5 of c25k yesterday.It was 3 five minute runs followed by two , three minute walks....I didnt manage the last 5 minutes.I only did 4 and half.I was soooo tired.Out of breath.Plus these kids where there for practice and their instructor aswell.

I felt stupid running passed him ,he could obvious hear me , be out of breath...i felt really embaressed.

Day 2 of week 5 is 8 minute runs and then day 3 is 20 minutes............ok....how on earth did they make it like that?From 8 min.to 20??????im not going to even start saying how i feel about that..............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



My left leg was really hurting last night my husband said i injured the muscle.I dont know.I ill be back tonight.

Its a wet ,grey day today feeling SUPER TIRED and moody!
 
AHeya sweetie

Keep going with the 3x5 min runs until you can do them and then move on to the next one. The app should let you redo them, mine did. Stick with it sweetie and Don't worry about what you think other people think about you!!! I bet he actually admires you for actually being there and doing it!!!!! I really killed myself with a run yesterday and my breathing was so loud, i was bright red and i know i looked a total mess but ya know what? I didn't give a shit, I am pushing myself to do better and faster, i really don't care what other people think anymore.

Sending you lots of positive running vibes :grouphug:
 
Hi Jess, I agree with Kate. I don't give a bugger what other people think and it's much more important that you do what you want to do to get fit & healthy. Keep it up Jess, at your own pace. You must be getting fitter sweetie. Every little step counts, xoxo Cate
 
hi ladies!!!!

You are right~i shouldnt care what others think of me,cause i am trying for something better,not at home on my couch eating twix and mars bars!!!I will try tommorow when i go again to remember this!

I did day 5 of the 30Day shred ....still painfull.but a bit better....i hate the jumping jacks....i feel like all my body fat is wobbling around....

I also did 120 crunches and my weight lifting.I really what some toning done.It seems that i am concentrating more on fitness rather that eating so i dont know if that is agood thing.

Why cant i combine both and care for both at the same time>?its like when i DONT workout i am taking note of my food and when i am working out i dont write down or take extra care of my food....

Well im of to bed its really late.I'll check in on all your diary tommorow

Loves and hugs!!!!


ps Kate i think that is what i will be doing.continuing the 5 minute run till i can manage them!Thanks on that!!!

Cate i really dont see me getting any better or any more fit.I still get out of breath so easily and i just hate it.I can manage any pain exercise gives me but i cant manage the not breathing!I really hope i see some improvment cause i am really making an effort this time round on work outs!
 
Hi!

I am managing ok with food today no bad stuff.

Did day 1 again of week h5 f the c25k run.Its 3 sets of 5 minute runs.I did what Kate suggested , get comfy doing the 5 minutes then move on.


A strange thing happened today.As i was FINE health wise at around 1 pm i got this little pain in my tummy.Then i went to go get marios from school and the pain was getting worse.I was holding my tummy while driving home,then once in , i took my shoes of and went straight on the couch to lie down.When i layed straight on my back the pain got worse..ith was so bad.It was ALL of my tummy area up to just under my breasts.It was very bad cramps i think.It felt like poison released in me...omg...i couldnt even breath normal cause of the pain.I put a hot bottle on my tummy and once i was Sitting ,not n my back i was ok in 10 minutes.....so strange???i have been ok since then.My husband said it is from me doing to many crunches yesterday...i think that is not the case...i just hope im not getting any flu...coulndt stand that again!!

I am NOT doing the 30 day shred tonight i just really want my muscles to rest today.I know im supposed to do it straight for 30 days but i feel its the best thing for me right now.I will do it tommorow definatly


As for my run i think it was much easier than last times.Still its not the easiest thing to jog for 5 minutes but its not soooo bad...hope i get used to it a couple of more times to move on!


I am going to check out another stadioum near by cause the teenagers where practicing again tonight and their coach got into a little argument with some other runners about getting in the way of his practice.I felt really uncomfy so i'll chech out some where else/.


Tommorow there is a carnival party at the nursery Mario is going as a cowboy and he is really exited about it!!Of to wash him up to get to bed!
 
Hi Jess, I think it sounds like a good idea to give your body a rest. If bodies could talk, yours might be saying "Give me a break lady! What have I done to deserve this?" We all seem to have the exercise bug at the moment. I'm making myself exercise every morning, until it becomes a habit. I am not usually a morning person at all. We can do it jess. We can get fit & we will, xoxo Cate
 
AHeya sweetie :)

Glad you are being sensible and sticking to 3x5 runs until you get it sorted before moving on. :)

Hope you are ok, That pain in your stomach sounds odd, i had somthing like that before and i'm gonna ask you a really personal question....Have you been going to the toilet normally cos if you are constipated then that can cause really impressive stomach pain. That's what my pain was. Trapped wind can do it too.

You haven't been on for a few days, hope everything is ok.
Love and hugs Xxx :grouphug:
 
AJust checking in! You are doing great!! You are kicking the exercise in high gear ...love it!!

Hope your sweet little guy had fun at his party and dressing up...it sounded so cute!!

Sending hugs!! :)
 
Hi thanks for checking on me.I came by just cause i have been gone for days to say i am ok .I am going through some difficult personal stuff right now....in my relationship so i really didnt feel like loging on and righting anything.

I hope thingd get better.

I havent worked out from last time i came on .I am planning on starting tommorow again.I am really tressing out about stuff in my life....I felt like i was going to have a breakdown...thank goodness i didnt...Loves to all sorry for not coming on all these days/
 
Oh sweetie, that's no good that you're having such a bad time. I hope it works out for you. Please look after yourself & eat as healthily as you can. Sending you lots of love, xoxo Cate
 
AHeya sweetie, Im just here to let you know Im back.. I will read your diary more later, hope you ve been having a great day! Lots of love! xoxo
 
Im back!

I have been away for over a week i think.I had some personal troubles,things are better now but still im not totally ok with situations.Hope i manage through this.


Thing is a havent had ANY exercise all of this time.Nothing....Zero.

Then as food is concerned i ate anything i wanted.I didnt go crazy but i sure havent lost any weight.

I think its time to get back on track,enough with the time off!Before things get really ugly again!

Yesterday was ok day eating.Today i will try to be good again

Im planning on doing my run today and the 30Day dvd all over......scary....................................

I just hate having to count cals...i hate it.It makes me feel so much like i am on a diet.I feel im not free as silly as that sounds.But i dont think it works anyother way for weight loss.Im still 78 i think and i want to be 65...thats not happening if i dont count my food....i just want to get whre i want to and relax a bit
