She Wants Me Dead

I started the Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred workout DVD last week. I only did it once and only made it 9 minutes.

Then, I had to sit back and talk myself into it again. Which took a few days....

I finally got it back out this morning. The funniest thing is that Sissy loves it. You need hand weights and I do have 5lb ones from years ago, but Sissy felt left out, so I got into her bucket of blocks and chose 2 cylinder shaped orange blocks that fit in her hands just like weights.

She puts her weights with mine and we got started again this morning. I made it 11 minutes! Hopefully, I can work up to the full nearly 30 minutes of Level 1 before too long.

After my 11 minutes of torture, I finally just kind of fell over. Sissy said, "Mommy, have some water and you'll feel better." I drank some water and I did NOT feel better.

However, I left the DVD playing and she continued right along. She didn't do the moves to the letter, but she gave it an honest effort. It was adorable to see. She asks for the "stretching DVD" all the time. She actually wanted to do it again, but I told her once a day! My goodness, once a day is more than enough! LOL.

It's been about an hour and a half since I fell over in pain and my legs still hurt. I'm waiting a bit so I don't pass out in the shower.

It has definitely been interesting and I did get footage on the Flip camera of Sissy doing the rest of the workout. If I get motivated later on, I'll upload it to YouTube and copy it here. (It's shot from behind her, so you can't see her face).

But, I'm pretty sure Jillian Michaels wants me dead! ;-)
