Well, I failed miserably yesterday :) Well not that bad but I still didn't hit the number of carbs I wanted to eat. My issue is I don't want to do any diet where I feel like I'm starving all day. That will lead me to overeat. Trying to eat the amount of carbs I was, I did feel like I was starving.. So time for plan B. Like HCB commented I'm going to increase my protein and slowly decrease my carbs. Just trying to cut them down did not work for me. I felt awful.
On the exercise-front. I've decided not to do 30 day shred everyday. It's getting boring just doing that. Instead I'm going to take 1 rest day a week. 3 days I'm going to do 30 day shred and 3 days I'm going to run/walk, alternating days. I tried to run last night and that didn't go well. I think I'm going to walk first for a while. It seems like every time I try to run or on 30 day shred do the jumping jacks, I can't jump around. I keep hurting my leg..... Walking first then running. I did the bike last night instead.

Well, you're doing fine, but don't make the mistake of just going out and trying to run, without gradually working up to it. Read the article I sent you; it has worked for 1,000's of people, and it worked for me. You can't say that you're at a loss of what to do, anymore. You don't have to cut out your carbs, but eat healthier carbs, in addition to the advice that HCB gave you. Develop a plan and try to stick with it. "Those who fail to plan, plan to fail." Every time you have a negative thought about yourself, turn it into a positive affirmation. For example: "I am fat" is a negative thought. A positive affirmation is, "I am in control of my destiny. I have a plan. I am looking and feeling better every day, and I am going to look great in that next smaller size dress."

That's funny your talking about that about the 30 Day Shred. It's a really great workout, but everyone seems to think you need to do it every day for 30 days. I gave mine to my step daughter to use and told her she didn't have to do it every day to get results. A few times a week is great. Doing anything every day would start to get boring and it's much better to continually change up your exercise to prevent boredom and use different muscles. I do a bunch of different dvd's, bike, run, walk, hike, etc. Do what is right for you.

This all is great advice - for everyone! I also do different activities for exercise. If you want to do Jillian Michaels start with her first DVD called "Fronts and Backs" - it is low impact circuit training meant for beginners. I alternate with other DVDs and use "fronts" 1-2 times a week and "backs" about 1 x a week,ALTHOUGH it says beginners - i is still Jillian and challenging! I have lost inches and gained muscle! Exercise should not cause injury - you are trying to push your body too hard. I started wth walking!
