A love/hate relationship with Jillian Michaels.

I'm on day three of Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred. I haven't technically completed day three yet; I'm off to do that next, but I'm a cheater when it comes to exercise and I like to trick my brain into thinking it's accomplished more than it has.
Jillian: My nemesis/biggest fan.
I can already feel myself getting stronger, which I love. (I didn't get winded as quickly today while running repeatedly from the main floor of our office to the second!) But I don't think that will stop me from exchanging dialog with Jillian while she's taunting me from my TV screen. Why won't she let me take a break and be lazy!? Jillian and her two cronies don't even have water bottles next to their mats! There are NO breaks allowed in the 30 Day Shred, and I think Jillian can actually see out of the TV because whenever I take a mini-break, she times her lecture perfectly. "I know 400lb people who can do continuous jumping jacks! You don't get a break!" Waahh.

Why is getting motivated to workout so hard? I really do just want to watch Mythbusters reruns and eat ice cream. 
Jillian won't let me.
Well, I'm off to sass back to a drill sergeant that can't hear me. And I WILL take a water break if I feel like it! Here's to having pre-crazytown Britney Spears abs in 30 days!

xx, Emily
