Shred

Against my better judgment, I was cruising around Amazon.com around 1am when I decided I needed to buy something (because that's what always happens when I go to the Amazon site, and although I know this, I like to pretend I'm just looking and then some sort of buying emergency comes up and sure enough I've bought something. They make it way too easy, prime shipping, credit card on file. I can hardly be blamed.)

Just then the Flirty Girl workout infomercial came on and I decided I'd buy that. (I don't know why. I really don't.) The reviews sucked and I realized what a totally ridiculous idea this was, but came across the Jillian Michael's 30-day Shred video which got glowing reviews. Most of the reviews said it was hard and although I hate stuff that's hard, I bought it.

After I bought it, I found myself thinking that I'd better not mention it to you all in case it sucked and I didn't want to do it for 30 days, and then I realized how completely counterproductive it was to set myself up to cheat before my order confirmation had even come through.

So, I'm telling you all. Reluctantly. I'll also keep you posted. No promises though, remember when I tried Master Cleanse? Yeah. This could end up being 12 straight hours of me bitching and then 15 minutes of me convincing myself it's okay to quit.

I DO want to tone up. I DO want to look better in (and out of) clothes. The new school year seems like a good time to start, little kid and I can do The Shred together. So stay tuned for more news on that. We'll hopefully be starting on Monday.
