For the record…
Just completed my first workout of Week 4 (i.e. the HARDEST) of Jillian Michael’s Ripped in 30 30 day shred. I feel so good about getting stronger. This weekend we road bikes to the farthest-nearby park (preferred for its sandbox) and the hills were easier than usual.
I’ve also eaten really well, counting calories, with the exception of deliberate splurge meals 1-2 days per week. And? I’ve lost one pound. ONE POUND in close to a month (I’ve stretched out the previous 3 workouts a tad).
It’s bizarre. This is the least I’ve seen results from any diet I can remember, yet I don’t feel sick of it like I usually would by now. Soon we’ll be on a beach, eating guacamole and I won’t care because no one is looking at me except my loving husband…but I’m packing my running shoes because I think I might crave a workout or two.
Updated: I paid attention tonight as I started it and I’m doing Ripped in 30, not 30 Day Shred. Which the interwebs tell me is even harder. Because seriously!

You are getting stronger though. It’s likely that the weight you are losing is being offset by the muscle you are gaining. Don’t get frustrated. You are doing great.

I did the 30 day shred too and trust me, you are gaining muscle!! Hence the “little” weight difference. It’ll show, promise! :) you’re kicking butt!
