Got in 4 JM workouts and lost 2 pounds in my first 7 days. Not too shabby! Between now and Valentine's Day, I'd like to get in 5 or 6 JM workouts, in addition to my gym workouts at work. It'd also be nice to knock off another 4 pounds or so....

February 7
weight: 247.1
(doesn't it always happen like that? after a night of horrible eating you're down 2 pounds, but then when you're virtuous all day and can't wait to step on the scale, you've gained. Weight loss is retarded.)
9:30: meal replacement shake, 16 ounces water
10:30 coffee with cream
1:00 Fiber one bar
3:00 meal replacement shake, 16 ounces water
(skipped my lunchtime workout :(....didnt want to, but my weave install somehow had morphed into a dead rodent on my head. I stood in the shower for my entire lunch break, detangling with a comb and an entire bottle of conditioner)
4:00 vending machine crap....small bag of chips and 3 cookies (270 calories worth of damage), 16 ounces water
6:00 16 ounces water
8:00 - Jillian Michaels "Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism" (1 hour): LAWDDD have mercy this video was hard! It is chock FULL of explosive jumping and plyometric moves like mountain climbers, jumping jacks, jumping squats, and burpees. Man oh MAN was i sweating. i hated every minute of it, which means it should DEFINITELY be a part of my regular rotation. If I did this video regularly, there's no way i could NOT lose fat. It was so intense and heart-pumping. i was expecting more strength moves, but it was primarily cardio, wich woul make it a good rotation with NMTZ, which is more strength-and-toning focused.
9:00 - jerk chicken (1/2 breast and a drumstick), white rice, black beans and string beans. small glass of red wine

NMTZ
I'm trying out all the videos i purchased before i make a decision on what videos I want in heavy rotation. So far, NMTZ is hands down my favorite. It's tough, long, and sweaty, just how i like my workouts! I was sore EVERYWHERE, but particularly in the places I really want to tone: thighs, arms, and core! love love love it
Yoga Meltdown-Level 1
Saturday morning i did Yoga Meltdown, and was pleasantly surprised! I don't know why i was expecting a more mellow workout (this is Jillian Michaels for gosh sake)....It ended with me sweaty, breathless and shaky. i loooooved the more athletic take on traditional yoga moves. I'm not into "real" yoga, I find it boring and tedious. So Jillian's version is right up my alley, i get the strength of the poses and the benefits of the deep breathing and stretching, without all the new age-y music and language. I think this would be awesome on days between traditional strength and cardio workouts.
6-Week 6-Pack
I did this video this morning. In true Jillian fashion, she intersperses cardio spurts between the toning moves. Everything was core-focused, and I definitely broke a serious sweat, but by the end, when she says "Your abs should be on fire right now", they weren't
...I didn't really feel a huge burn in my core, I just felt tired and worn out. I actually felt more of a burn during the abs and core circuit on NMTZ. I still may do 6W6P sometimes for variety, but its not a favorite. Maybe i'll try level 2
