Not a quitter...but

I love doing The Shred. And I love the results it's bringing. But I have to be honest...it's a bit too intense of a work out for me right now. I know the people on The Biggest Loser show are even less in shape and I am, and work out harder and longer than this DVD...but I'm not them. I still have a family to take care of, and a job to go to, etc...and I don't have massage and physical therapists to take care of me each night. Each time I do the DVD, I physically hurt and feel run down for days afterward.

I am going to work on building my fitness level and stamina by doing my elliptical machine and walking. I think I may even throw in some Shred workouts once or twice a week, because I really do love them.

I am wanting to continue to work out and get healthier...but trying to force myself to Shred EVERY day is actually having the opposite effect!

I hope you all will continue to support me...but I'm sorry to drop out of the 30 Day Challenge.

I had to take a break from it too because I began to think it was damaging my knees. I feel like a quitter. And my eating is been off these last few days as well.
I need to get back on track but I have no motivation.

Don't worry about it not being the Shred-it's about being active. Keep it up!
