Day 1

So, I began my journey with a chocolate caramel Access bar from Melaleuca.  It's supposed to be a nutrition bar that is patented to 'turn fat to fuel', so we'll see. After fifteen minutes I did a Level 1 workout to Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred.  If you're not familiar with it, it's a series of 3 circuits that all have 3 minutes of strength training, 2 minutes of cardio and 1 minute abs.  After the first circuit (about 8 minutes) I wanted to quit.  My legs were shaking and burning and sweat was pouring.  By circuit 3, I wasn't sure if I could physically finish.  View my short video from after my workout...don't judge :-P

I followed the workout with a 2.2 mile bike ride around the bike path, a trip that ended with the onset of rain.  Lunch was half of a subway sub (turkey w/ provolone, banana peppers, green peppers, lettuce and of course cucumbers with honey mustard).  The other half was snack.  So far, I feel great...but I could use a little nap.  Until next time...
