30 day shred

So I bought this video after stalking the WW boards about the reviews. The stuff that I read said it was an awesome video and it seemed like most of the people got through level 1 just fine but found 2 and 3 to be hard. Maybe they were already hard core but I was sweating after minute 1!!! This work out is fantastic but it kicks your butt! After the warm up the whole first minute is push ups and I have zero upper body strength. I will keep doing it to see if I can eventually last the first full minute of push ups. My husband did it with me and while he did great at the pushups, he was definitely hurting in the cardio and ab phase.

Very intense but I could feel it working. I definitely feel it working today but it's not that I'm unable to move, it's a comfortable pain (if that makes any sense!). I'm excited to do the video again tonight. The video claims you can lose 20 lbs in 30 days. I seriously doubt that unless maybe you went from completely sedentary to level 3 immediately which again would be hard to believe. I'm just looking to tone and of course drop some weight but by no means do I expect 20 lbs from this. I'm also not doing it 30 days straight. I'll incorporate my other work outs and switch between them all.

Here's to working towards feeling good about wearing a bikini this summer! My hope is that by my birthday (6/30) I'll have lost 30 pounds since I started on 1/3. I'm half way there so I've got 3 1/2 months to pull it off!!!
