Level 2, Day 9 and 10

Its still hard to do... I still sweat like a pig... it doesn't feel like I have completed 10 days of Level 2, so i will continue to do Level 2 for a few more days, till it gets easier for me, or till I get bored of it (whichever comes first...and the greater possibility is that I will get bored of it first)

I wanted to do the 10-day Beyond Calories Diet (a part of the Fat Loss for Idiots diet)... but it is too restrictive and scary for me :(

Now I have decided to follow the diet principles outlined by the website: www.fasttracktofatloss.com
I really like it because I have the free Silver membership and I can still find a lot of useful stuff for myself!

You can go ahead and click on the link, its not an affiliate link (teehee) :D

Happy shredding everyone.... and BTW, I would really like to hear from you .. have you started the 30 day shred? or are you planning to? Or if you are doing it, then which Level are you at and how do you like it? :)

Take care y'all :))

Level 2, Day 8

I gotta admit... I have to FORCE myself every day to do my Level 2.
Seriously, it is still very hard for me...although I have seen improvements in myself over these 10 days (I have skipped a couple of days in between)


I look at the watch when I start and calculate before hand by what time I would be finished and then I just do the exercise...and by the end of the 25 or so minutes, I am ready to DIE! It is hard hard hard... I just hope that i will have a good result at the end of this shred thingy.


I now HAVE to improve my eating habits... every time I get stressed out, I dive into my heaven by chomping on chocolate (hence my name; chocaddict, duh!) hee! I made brownies yesterday and they are almost gone today... I got some dark chocolate and inhaled it within a day... my son ask me to buy him marshmallows and he has eaten 2 or 3 and I have eaten 5 or 6 
*sigh*

ugh... where is my self control? :'(

Level 2, Day 2 to 7

I am so sorry for not writing my updates regularly... life and laziness happens!
Now back to business... today I completed the level 2, day 7. This level is HARD! Makes me sweat like crazy; the 3rd circuit is so hard that it makes me grunt and I swear I would swear bad bad words if I swore, which I do not! LOL

I have purchased 1kg dumbbells because I just cannot exercise with my 2 kg dumbbells when I get to the 3rd circuit. Jillian says something in the lines of... "I want you to feel as if you are going to DIE".... well, I actually feel like I am going to DIE when I am doing the last circuit of the video.

YES, Jillian is a crazy crazy woman... and I guess I love her for it... hahaha

I am planning to go on a 10-day diet starting in a couple of days; it is the "Fatloss for Idiots" fast track diet. it is supposed to help you loose your fat and not your muscles. The scary part is, it does not allow you to eat any grains/cereals for those 10 days and no sugar or milk either. I can live with no grains and bread for 10 days...but...but... what about my beloved chai? My breakfast tea, with milk and sugar...sigh! I am in love with my tea ritual twice a day..... sigh... I will have to convince myself to let go of my favorite tea preperation for 10 days and get my caffiene fix from tea or coffee with no added sugar or milk....aaaaaaaaaaaack! :O
Will keep you updated!
Ciao and happy shredding :)
