Shred Head?!

Okay, first things first, I am asking the question that so many have before me...Can I be a Shred Head? 

 I have most recently been posting about my quest to become a runner, but after suffering some knee pain it was decided the pounding the pavement needed to be put on the back burner...for now (I will run a half-marathon). 

So, instead of throwing in the towel I decided to do the 30 Day Shred.  

I blogged about it last week, but really just ended up doing the DVD 3 times and kinda getting a feel for the program.  So, here it is...my official start pictures.  I shutter at these for multiple reasons, but please notice my hair.  I mean really?  I took these before straightening it...sorry. 

Here is me and Jillian just pounding it out...Or at least this is how I feel with all those skinny bishes in workout videos!
 

These next pictures are also equally bad.  My husband needs lessons with an iPhone.  Next week, starting on Wednesday I plan to start posting one outfit from my week.  I feel that when I am trying to lose weight I get in such a rut sometimes of not trying.  I love, love, love clothes.  So, here is to wearing the clothes that I love during the weight loss as well as after...it just might be a link-up with A Fluffy Girl called "Working Girl Wednesday".  You can share outfits, hair, make-up...anything that would be work appropriate (this girl needs inspiration).

    The outfit pictures are super cute! Where is your dress from?? I tried 30 Day Shred. I was in so much pain after day 3 that I couldn't do it anymore. It's tough! But I will get back to it eventually. Gotta get working out!!

    I loved the 30 day shred! Make sure you take measurements too :) You will notice a huge difference in the inches - I love your dress and the idea of posting an outfit/week.

    Thanks for linking up!

    Your hair looks great!

    I'm curious about her 30 day shred. I'm having knee surgery next week and don't know how soon I can be fully active again.

    You can totally do it! You can! :)

    And I'm totally with you on the feeling like a seal with Jillian. She's a beast!

    I need to do something... I saw myself from the side in a mirror today in a restaurant and I was just like, oh my - when did that happen. :-/

    Hello Katelyn! I started following your blog a while ago and just read your story on holly's blog. I am in the same boat as you (around 175) trying to lose weight. For the record I also have an anxiety disorder so I know how sucky that is. I am also an aspiring photographer! You should come check out my blog and we can keep tabs on eachother's progress. I am using Weight Watchers and i blog at The Corral Connection : http://corralderekandmegan.blogspot.com/ and my weight loss blog is http://myweightlossjourneymegan.blogspot.com/ ( I will be updating it weekly with weigh ins and food plans and all that!) Im also on instagram megancorral669. Hope to hear from you soon!
