21 Day Fix - Day 1

So I've kinda been slacking lately...oopsie :-/ After 2 weeks at the beach and a week in Seattle, I really needed a jump start to get back in the swing of things and put some good habits back in place before school starts (on Aug 31 ohmygoooooooooooosh make it stop).

One of my BFFs did the 21 day fix and got awesome results. I did some research on it and as I was about to make the purchase - their infomercial came on tv and I was HOOKED! My dad always said I was a marketer's dream...

So when the package came in the mail I was like ummmm those containers are really small. My mom saw them and sent me a text that said "oh my those 21 day containers are so wee small." Yup. This is going to be a fun 21 days! Real talk, they may be small but you get enough of them so its good - I had unused containers today (which may be the result of me snoozing my alarm for 3.5 hours...yes...really. It's a real issue I have - any suggestions?).

Last night I decided it would be a good idea to watch the first workout...just to make sure there were no surprises (and to see how annoying her voice was - surprisingly, its not bad. I like to think of it as a soothing Miley Cyrus voice). She tells you that if you want to modify the moves, look at Kat because she does them. Um, no thanks Autumn  - these don't look that bad, I'll be just fine! 

Haaaaaaaaa...

Fast forward to this morning when I actually start the workout. I'm like, this isn't bad at all, I'm doing just fine, and then she says "okay, we're almost done with the warm up." I'm sure my jaw dropped. I do okay for a few minutes  because Autumn keeps saying I can do anything for 60 seconds and then I'm like "NO AUTUMN I CAN'T DO THAT! Let me see what my girl Kat has going on...she can show me the way." So, obviously I survive. I wasn't sure how I was going to make it up the stairs to shower, but that was a problem that could wait a few minutes (yes, I did end up showering).

And as if that wasn't bad enough, I went momentarily crazy and asked my friend if she wanted to elliptical today. So, I did that today, too! Yikesssss! But I guess that's why it's good to tell people - they hold you accountable and encourage you! So thanks to my fitness friends :)

Tomorrow's workout is upper body fix, so I better quit typing and save my strength :-/
