Having done the Shred so early yesterday, I have to admit, it was the greatest feeling yesterday afternoon to NOT have to come home and do it in the evening. It felt so great, in fact, that I forced myself to get out of bed early again today to do the same thing. It's getting a little easier, but it's still sucky.

And I have to admit that I'm getting very tired of actually doing the DVD. I contemplated giving up, especially having watched what I ate PLUS exercised all week, and got on the scale this morning to find I was up 2 pounds. I don't know why I weighed myself - it's not my normal weigh day. And I think it's probably because of the 2 glasses of wine I had last night - I always retain water with alcohol. But none-the-less, it was discouraging.

So to give myself a new hope, I came up with a plan to make it seem less daunting. I decided I would only actually Shred Monday-Thursday each week. And since Day 1, there were 12 weeks until the wedding, so I decided I'd do Level 1 for 4 weeks, Level 2 for 4 weeks, and Level 3 for 4 weeks. We'll see how well that goes...

Way to go. You're not alone in trying to make yourself get out of bed in the morning. I feel your pain!

Just a note of advice about your rotation...based on your comment about getting tired of doing the DVD. You might consider doing 3 or 4 rotations of all three levels instead of 4 weeks at a time of each level. Otherwise you may grow bored and that's really discouraging.

Good luck!
