The last 2 weeks have kind of sucked for my weight loss journey. We all caught this awful cold, and I was dealing with 2 little ones with fevers and stuffy noses on top of a sick husband and a sick me. I tried to do a few workouts during those 2 weeks that didn’t involve a lot, so I worked with weights to try and tone up my arms mainly. So when it came my 2 week weigh in and measurements I was surprised that I had lost 2lbs, but I had gained 1 inch (1/2 inch on two different areas).

So for the last 6 weeks I have been very consistent in loosing 1lb a week, which is great, but I know that if I step it up I can do better.

Which brings me to the workout I have been dreading…The 30 Day Shred. I attempted The Shred just before Capri’s first birthday which was almost 2 years ago. I made it to day 8 and got super busy with birthday stuff and I quit. But during those 8 days I lost 10lbs and toned up a lot. So I am sucking it up and trying it again. I started last night, and I used my 5lb weights during it which was brutal but good. So we will see how long I do it – hopefully for the full 30 days this time. I took some before photos just to see how well I do.

So I am now down 6lbs, and have lost 28 inches. Let The Shred begin.
