    sooo day 9 of da shred.... feeling stronger i can feel my abs getting stronger too!!! this is sooo swesome i love it!! one more day of level 1 then its on to 2 im actually excited about it.... m sure i won't be when i do it tho anyhow hope everyone is still doing well !!

    Awesome job! Last night I shredded then I did 20 minutes on my elliptical! Then this morning before work I even shredded! I am feeling sooo awesome! I cannot believe how I am actually starting to tone up! Not to mention I was actually able to do 15 push ups (modified) in a row! I have no upper body strength so that is a huge acheivement for me. YAY YAY!

    So is it normal to do each level 10 days? Or should you wait till level one gets easy then move to the next?
    \



    first of yay for the push ups!!! that was a biggie fo me too m so wimpy lol and i dont know how doing the shred makes me feel better but it sure does. i spent allll moring and half the afternoon in court felt horrible and tired but did my day 10 and now i feel great!! i have heard different comments on how long to do the levels i am going 10 days because i am comfy with 1 now so thats how im going to do it. but if u dont feel comfy going to 2 by day 10 stay till u are i say....hope that helps

    Thank you! Yeah I was really impressed when I was like "holy crap I just did 15 straight?!" lol. Court all day? aww I hope all is ok. One thing with the mood thing is that if you have something to look forward to it does help and with you being into shredding is really awesome. Plus excercise is a great way to alleviate stress! Keep it up. Let me know how level 2 goes! I think I am going to try it on day 10....eek. 4 days away!

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who curses at her for those side lunges and strength :P I just finished Day 2 of Level 1. I tried the video a few months ago, and couldn't handle it, but now I'm back at it with a vengence! Good luck everyone!!!

    Yes they are evil! It IS a form of torture! lol. Welcome! Glad you are on a mission! Keep us posted as to your status! It feels great with this workout. I cannot believe how my body is already changing from it. Awesome!

    Well I did my last day of level one then decided to check out level two. I made it through half of level 2 before stopping because my ankle started to hurt. I think I will actually like level two better. Who knows. How are things going for you?

    So a little one is sick? aww. I remember those days. It does get easier though when they get older and are able to communicate with you better as to what is exactly wrong. For the cough did you try some vick's?

    Level 2 Day 1! ~~~Well, i made it through it! It really isn't as bad as I thought it would be. But I will know how bad it actually was when tomorrow morning rolls around! LOL, I hope this workout slims me down though! From everything that i have read is that this workout you don't drop the weight but I really need to tone up. With how much the weight has fluctuated there is some areas for sure that I need to tone up. I really need to drop the weight though too. WOW this is a ramble! Sorry, I better just stop typing!

    Put some Vick's on his chest. It will open everything up so he can breathe a little better. If he is really young do not use a whole lot. A little bit goes a long way with that stuff. A vaporizer would work too. Also, try taking a shower with him in the bathroom with you. Don't use the fan and let the moisture help with his breathing. I used to have a really big bathroom and I would bring my little guys swing in there and let him swing while I was in the shower. It seemed to help alot.

    Has anyone done level 3 yet? To mix it up a bit I decided to try it last night. It wasn't exactly a mistake but I wasn't ready for it - I don't have the upper body strength necessary for this level so I'm going back to level 2. I think a few more weeks on level 2 and I'll be ready to move up.

    Has anyone done her "No more problem areas" workout? I just picked it up over the weekend and haven't even taken the shrink off it yet.
