Ripped in 30 Results

I finished Ripped in 30 Saturday... and I'm finally getting around to blogging about it (oops)!

I did 6 days on each week, with 1 rest day. I moved my rest day around from Sunday/Monday depending on what was going on in the week. I've been pretty frustrated with my scale as it's pretty much stayed put for the past month. But, even though the scale has stayed put, I've dropped inches!

Here's the before and after pictures-

Before----------------------After

The workout is definitely a step up from 30 Day Shred. My results probably aren't as dramatic because I'm getting closer to where I should be.

As far as inches lost:

Bust-1"

Chest-1.5"

Arms-.5" each arm

Waist-1.5"

Midway-1"

Hips-1"

Thighs-.5" each leg

For a total of 8"!

I guess I'm not overly excited about my results, because I was hoping for more, but looking at how far I've come since earlier this summer gives me a little more motivation to keep pushing!

I am in love with Ripped in 30.

I am in love with Ripped in 30. Oh Jillian...

This morning while I was getting ready in the bathroom, I thought hmmm my waist looks a little smaller. Wondering if I was just imagining things, I decided to pull out the tape measure. From Tuesday afternoon to Friday morning, I've already lost a whole inch on my waist. 3 workouts. 1" gone. CRAZY. Is it comparable to 30 Day Shred? I think it builds on it. There's no way I would be able to go as hard as I do now without having done 30 Day Shred first. Ripped seems to move a little faster, and I think the month's workouts will go faster too. I've already finished 4 of the 6 days of level one, and I'm just starting to get the whole workout memorized. 30 day shred did get a little old after about day 7 so this will be a whole different story!

I made Justin pick up some heavier weights for me yesterday while he was in town for his doctor's appointment. If I'm going to do this, I'm going to go all out. Will I see a size 7? Not sure. I don't know if it's even physically possible for me. But I do know I'm not ready to get complacent any time soon.
