Day 23 - Attempt at something new...

Day 13 of MS, Day 12 of Group Shred
So here is a video that I hope you all can see and hear. I thought it would be fun to try out so let me know if it works. It is about 12min long and not very good quality but oh well. It's also chopped up because I was trying to get everything in and I kept stopping and re-recording, so it's the best I could do. Maybe I'll get better at it but for now we'll see. Anyway, hope you can see it and enjoy it. See you soon!
Okay damn I can't see it can anyone else? I guess I'll put it on youtube...okay, youtube rejected me...it won't let anything over 10 min. This has been a learning experience for sure. I am going to cut it down or else do two smaller ones, not sure yet...to be continued...
Okay, I got it down under 10 minutes, it's uploading now so hopefully you'll be able to see it soon.

And here are today's pics:

Yesterday I said you are hot and as I look at your pictures today, I see so many positive changes. You are obviously working very hard and you are very focused on getting to the ultimate goal. I'm proud of your progress so far. Great job!

Excellent job on the video post. Today I noticed def. changes in your back...looking swell!

Raiden said...

Hey Joni,
I'm a shredder wannabe :D

Just thought I would pop in and say that the difference in todays pic and your starting pic is huge. Its passed the point where you are looking for the changes in the two pics because it is now glaringly obvious that you've made lots of progress. Good work!

Ditto to what Raiden said! The difference in your first pic to today's is very obvious.
This coupled with your comments about Metabolic Surge has convinced me to buy it. I want results like yours! :D
And thanks for taking the time to post a video too! I love the daily videos. I hope Adam keeps posting them.

Hey Joni! Great video. Thanks for the shout out. Way cool of you. I can't believe these couple of weeks are flying by. (it's DAY 14 already here in the Philippines.) I'm so glad it's going to keep on going.

You are doing really great. I think other shredders are going to follow your lead with the videos.

BTW, your voice sounds EXACTLY like I thought it would. So weird. Really, cool. I'll be back to wish you a Happy Day 14!

BTW, I like the sound of the potato wedge principal. :)

Hie Joni, I saw your pic on Adam's site and I was blown away. The difference in the pics are definitely there. Firstly, the love handles from the front are smaller, the shape of abs are forming. From the back, the love handles are DEFINITELY shrinking and the tummy looks much flatter from the side than what it used to be.

Good job!

Sam

Joni, the difference in your pictures is incredible, your effort has obviously paid of. Fantastic. BTW your still pics absolutely do not do you justice. Seeing you live, you are a beautiful girl, sincerely. Your video is way cool. Keep doing it girl

Joni, awesome video! It really does give you "life" to see you "in person". I have thought about doing one too but haven't. How cool of you to mention me in your video. I am just a shy, small town girl who put her hopes of losing weight into action. If I can help encourage someone else along the way that would be awesome! I have grown to love many of the shredder council members, including you. One of these days when we come to Baltimore to visit the family, we'll have to stop by your house!

you have made tremendous progress! and it will only get better!!

Joni said...

Hey everybody!
Michael - thanks as usual for your support, it is so great to have people watching out for me!

Alex - thanks!

Diane - thanks, I have seen the most change in my back I think!

Raiden - I haven't had a chance to totally read through your blog, just check it out some, but thanks for the support and I hope you'll be with us for the next shred. You have been making progress without us, I wonder what your take will be on the difference when you do it with all of us?

Lilla - Thanks! I also need to look through your blog but I am glad you are getting MS, I hope it works well for you. I though, for the minimal investment it was worth a try and I am very happy with it now. Different than anything I have seen before and works with my personality. I'll be checking on your progress! Hope to see you with us on the next shred!
PS I liked Adam's videos too so that's why I decided to do it but it was a royal pain. I learned a lot so the next one will go much smoother I think!

Christy - Thanks and I hope others who have the ability do put out videos because you really feel closer to the person when you hear a voice I think. That's funny that you imagined my voice like it is! (Actually that day it was hoarse but still sounded like me). Anyway, see you soon! PS We're going to have a whole new language between shredders here before long what with potato wedges and butt lifts! :)

Sammy - thanks so much. I am excited to see what I will achieve in even more time!

Dougal - thanks, I appreciate the compliments. I like the videos, they are a little more personal I think - hopefully others can do them as well!

Suzette - you have been so great to all of us. And you have done so well in your journey so far it is great to have a "veteran" on the team. It would be great to meet you (and everyone, really) in person someday. Do a video! I want to see you "live"!

And again thank you to everyone this has been an awesome experience so far lets keep it up!

Hey, JOni, I just might have to take you up on the video thing. I don't really know what I would talk about though. I am not good in front of the camera. I have always been better behind the camera especially when it comes to public speaking!

Adam Waters said...

Joni, I am blown away! I never felt "famous" until now! That was an awesome video, it is so great to see you speak and talk about your journey over the last 14 days.

Like I said today on my blog I really believe you have what it takes to not only make a total mind/body/life transformation but also inspire other people to do the same.

Wow! I'm still speechless, it was great to hear you give thanks to your fellow shredders. I can see by the comments that everyone is blown away!

I look forward to continuing our shredder journey together .

Cheers,
Adam Waters
