The Shred: Days 4 & 5: 5/10 and 5/11

I took 2 days off from the Shred last week, since Friday night was my night to spend with Will. Then Saturday, he and I went to dinner with my dad, in Sanford. I started back up again on Sunday (Mother's Day) after Mom came to visit. I'm glad I gave myself a little break, 'cause I felt seriously refreshed when I "shredded". I think I really powered through it, and the rest helped :D

Yesterday night I forced myself to move up to level 2...and it wasn't that bad! I haven't exercised continuously since mid March (when a project in my Fiscal Management class took over my whole existence), but I love that feeling of accomplishment I get, at the end of that 20 minutes. I'm glad to be exercising again, and it's the perfect stress-reliever too.

I still have my note on the bathroom mirror from my first day, but I added an extra incentive. I took my bridal shower dress out from my closet, and hung it in my office near the computer. I'm usually in here checking my email before I do the Shred, so it's good for me to look at if I want to chicken out for a day.
