30 Day Shred Workout

If you haven't heard of this workout before, let me give you some info

Her 30 Day Shred DVD includes three 20-minute circuit-training workouts that burn mega calories and build strong, lean muscle. Each level contains a 20-minute workout based on Jillian's exclusive 3-2-1 Strength/Cardio/Ab training circuit: 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of cardio, and 1 minute of ab work. There's also a brief warm-up session and a cool down stretch.

You do each workout level for 10 days, I use 3 lb weights and 5 lb weights depends on the exercise. 

I started on Nov 1, I took my measurements, weight and a Before picture. I'm actually sticking with it this time and will make it the whole 30 days! I also added in some Tae-Bo which I'll be doing 3 times a week.

Weight- 175 lbs

Hips- 39"

Waist- 38" (around the belly button) 31" (natural waist)

Arms- L-11.5" R-11.5 "

Thigh- L-25" R-25"

Dymatize Nutrition ISO 100 Review

I have done a ton of research for the right protein powder, and I can tell you it wasn't easy!

I started my weightloss journey without ever taking one, so in 18 months I'm finally found one!

I used Shakeology but to be honest it tasted horrible! My stomach would turn just from the smell of it!

I order a 280g bag from well.ca in gourmet chocolate. The price was $24.99 a little expensive since you only get 10 servings per bag. But I didn't want to buy a huge tub and not like it.

This protein powder has NO SUGAR! 24 g of Protein, 1 g of Carbs and 106 Calories. If your counting calories or carbs this is a good powder for you. 

I mixed mine with water and it was delicious! Wasn't chalky, didn't have a nasty after taste and what women doesn't like the taste of chocolate???  

This powder also helps with building muscle.

I take my powder after a workout with water. You can add your powder to skim milk, a smoothie, and even some recipes can use protein powder.

I highly recommend this protein powder!
