Are you ready to take 30 days of your life and see what can happen???  You should join us on Jamie's adorable blog. 

There's strength in numbers and I hope you'll join us!
Beginning July 15th, for 30 days, I'll be doing the 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels.  Jamie started this all up at her blog and I decided that it is time to jumpstart my get fit plan.

I have been suffering from the symptoms of Hypothyroidism for three years now. After the military doctors told me there was nothing wrong, I did research myself. I thought it might be hypothyroidism and asked the doctor about it, but he assured me that it was nothing. A medical discharge for mental health and three years later a doctor finally listened and sure enough.... hypothyroidism. I had actually begun to believe I was crazy and making up the symptoms! So, here I am starting to get my life back and trying to loose some weight as well. I have stuggled with my weight. Recently I began a doctor supervised nutrition plan called MOVE. The hypothyroidism played it's part in me gaining 55 lbs in the last year and a half. I had lost hope completely of being in my recommended healthy weight range. Now though, I see that the weight gain had a cause, and now I can be treated. As I begin treatment for hypothyroidism, I am hoping that a balanced diet in combinatinon with excercise will help me reach a healthy weight again.

If you haven't heard of the 30 Day Shred before, it's a 20 minute workout that combines strength training, cardio and abs. It's HARD and it WORKS. I want to challenge myself and accomplish this.
Anybody else in?????

Here's what you need to do if you want to join Jamie and several others:

1. Take a before photo.
2. Take your before measurements.
(I'm going to measure hips, thighs, arms/biceps and waist.)
3. Go to Jamie's blog and comment
4. Purchase the dvd or borrow somebody's.
5. Once we're finished with our 30 days, we'll celebrate our accomplishments together!!!!

Loves!
