I have not share this before I guess I did not want to be judged or jinxes myself but here goes I quit smoking in July I know she smoked gross yuck I know but I did for twelve years I was more of closet smoker I didn't smoke in public never in front of my parents. You could just find me sneaking around outside somewhere smoking. Well I quit in July! Yea me! But with this quitting I did gain some weight one of the reasons I was scared to quit to start with...so over the last month I have really been trying to whip myself into shape with the help of one Miss Jillian Michaels 
I will tell you she is not playing in ten days I have lost five pounds, 1/2 in from my arms, 3 ins. from my thighs, 2 1/2 ins. from my waist, 1 in. from my hips. Brinsley is doing it too I am so proud of her, we started level two last night its hard but we are sticking to it. I feel like I am in better shape now than I have been in for awhile. I highly recommend it but be prepared to be sore! I will keep everyone posted about the progress.
Hugs
Carrie

That is so awesome! Congrats on quitting smoking and getting back into shape! If anyone can make a person have abs of steel...Jillian is the one! She is hardcore!
Carrie - great job! That sounds amazing! I think it's so great that you and your daughter are doing it! I really need to do that with my daughter. It would be good to get in better shape AND something we could do together!

what kind of stuff is on that tape of Miss Jillian.......floor exercises?
Congratulations of quitting smoking! That is awesome. Now I am off to check out this Jillian Michaels chick. I need to lose a few (or 30) pounds.
Good for you! No judging here...I think I'm going to check it out!
Good for you, Carrie! I know it is so hard to quit when you have been doing it for a long time. But it sounds like you're doing great! Maybe I need to meet Ms. Jillian, too! :)
Good for you! Sounds like a great DVD. I might have to check it out. I just rejoined WW last week. I am going to try to lose slow & steady. So we'll see.
Take care my friend!
Hope you're having a great week!
Congrats to my tobacco free friend!!! That is great news! Keep up the great work!
Hey Carrie,
Great job on quitting smoking!!! I've heard it is sooo hard to do. Which is harder eating right/exercising or quit smoking?
I think I will have to go add that to my growing collection of workout DVD's. Now if I will get off my booty and pull one out...I need to stop talking about doing it and Just Do It!
Congrats on losing 5 + pounds that is AWESOME!
Great job Carrie, I'm really impressed! I love your Easter banner too... thanks for leaving me my first comment!
My hubby quit almost six years ago, I know how tough it is. You should be SO proud of yourself. Now, about this Jillian. I'm scared. Is this a diet exercise dvd, book, what? I need to get myself motivated to exercise more....
I am so glad you quit! That Jillian is no joke!!
I've never been a smoker, but I've heard from many it's so hard to quit. Good for you!! That's awesome you're getting into shape too! I bet you feel like a million bucks!
Hey Carrie;; You Go Girl!! You should be very proud of your self,for doing this. You are and inspiration to others. So pat your self on the back...

YAY Carrie! Go girl!
Jillian is totally a bootie-kicker. I still haven't got out of level 1 - but I'm really terrible about sticking to it.
Oh my goodness!!!! I can not believe I revealed my secret blog...oops! I didn't realize I was on that one when I posted here earlier....hee hee
Thanks for the good luck! I definately need it!
Carrie,
Congrats on quitting smoking. That is wonderful! I have been looking for a good workout DVD. I am very impressed with how far you have come in 10 days. I will definitely have to check this one out.
Good for you Carrie, on all of it! I need to look into that DVD...I need a new one.
Awesome! You are brave to take on Jillian...she is scary!! Way to go on quiting smoking too, any habit is hard but you are doing girly:) You will feel better and better!!!
Wow! Go you! This is fabulous. I'd try Jillian, but I'm a wuss. Really. I dont like pain. :)
Thank you so much for your sweet comment yesterday. I'm sorry for the losses you've suffered as well.
Wow, that is GREAT! I'm sort of tempted to order her DVD...but she kind of intimidates me.
