Jillian Michaels Body Revolution

Well here we go again-the thing that is different this time is that I am going to do this. I got my Body Revolution DVD's in the mail on Saturday and after reading over all of the information included in the program I was ready to begin my serious journey.

I started Phase 1 with workout 1 & cardio 1 today. I felt awesome all day-more energy, more positive and hopeful. I know I will be sore tomorrow but this is what it is going to take in order for me to change my life for once and for all!

Jillian is one of my all time favorite trainers. She is so tough! But the thing I love about her is that you can see how much she really cares. I saw a funny pin on pinterest  that reminded me why I love/fear her so much.
I try and think of this every time I'm doing one of her workouts.

John absolutely loves Jillian. He used to get so pumped when she was beating up the fat people on the Biggest Loser. I secretly think he wishes she would come to our house and whip us both in to shape. This would be one of my biggest nightmares... but that is exactly why I went and purchased her new program. I believe in her. I have seen her formula work and I am hoping it will work for me.

Ok so besides doing Jillian Michaels Body Revolution which is a 90 day program (similar to P90X I'm assuming) in which you go through phases of dvd's which contain strength and cardio workouts I am also using Weight Watchers to get a handle on my eating. There is a suggested diet included in Jillian's program... but it isn't super realistic for me to eat exactly what I'm told every single day.

I have my "Before" pictures taken but I will not be posting them until the end of phase 1 so that I have something better to post in comparison. I'll keep you posted!
