Enter Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred. For the uninitiated, Jillian is the female trainer on The Biggest Loser and an all-around ass-kicker. I need my ass kicked. The Shred dvd comes highly recommended by many on the internets and even a few friends from real life. I want to see muscles in my arms that I have never seen before. I want to see some semblance of a waist re-appear. I want my butt to defy the gravitational pull. I want my scrawny chicken legs to gain some shape. Basically, I want a new body. A body that doesn't outwardly show the blemishes of childbirth.
By posting this here, I am publicly committing to 30 days of shredding. Maybe not 30 days in a ROW but I hope to be finished by the beginning of December. And maybe, hopefully, this will be just the beginning.
Today is Day One. Bring it on, Jillian, bring it on.
**Updated 10/30/08: Holy hell mother of god my muscles hurt today. Muscles I didn't even know I owned. Burning pain searing through my body. I can't wait to do it again.
Laughter was Noah's first response when he and I discussed whether or not I could finish the 30 days. He can be such a jerk.

Oh. My. God. I own a copy of Jillian's Shred, too!! I actually bought it in my 39th week of pregnancy with the greatest of intentions, and it has been SITTING in my TV cabinet since then. Oh, if I weren't so friggin tired I would start the shred TODAY and join you. Maybe Monday I will. But I must confess, I am sitting here with one eye open, eating cereal at 7am because my stomach has been grumbling for a good hr now and I just remembered that I need to eat. {sigh}
I just noticed that I start almost all of my comments to you with "Oh My God". How L.A. am I??
Oh, and I love how I abbreviated the word "hour".
Goodnight.
