    Good Morning Shredders,:flowerforyou:

    Just finished L1, D8. Wow, I can't believe that I've been doing this steady for 8 days now. :bigsmile:

    I noticed yesterday and today that my strength is much better. Up until then while doing the 2nd set of anterior raises, I was slowing down a bit and Anita and Natalie were getting a side lunge ahead of me. But yesterday and today, I completely kept up. I'm feeling it, believe me. But, I am keeping up to the girls and this makes me very happy.:happy:

    I have also noticed that when I'm doing certain moves, especially the ones where you twist your torso, like the punches, bicycle and even the side lunges (because I'm shifting my weight), I can feel the muscles on the sides of my abdomen working.

    What a great feeling to know that I'm working out again.:love: I also feel like I have more energy now.

    Have a great day Shredding everyone!:drinker:

    Hi! I just heard about this website now. How is the 30day shred going? Is it worth a purchase?

    I'm still on track -- day 7 yesterday, scheduled to do day 8 tonight. I'm happy -- no, thrilled -- to report I've lost 5lbs since I started last week. I track it as circuit training too.

    I hope everyone here sticks with it!

    linzbclark - DEFINITELY worth the purchase!

    If you haven't tried it yet but need to loose some weight then I highly recommend buying the dvd.

    If you're familiar with Jillian Michael's then you already know that she delivers when it comes to getting in shape.

    Good luck with what ever choice you make as long as you simply get active.

    Day 5 Level 1 Finished!! Can't believe it's been 5 days since I started!! I have noticed that I can start going deeper in the exercises and my endurance is definitely so much better than when I began!! Still don't have the push-up thing completely down but I managed to do 3 without stopping!! That is a huge accomplishment for me!! When I finished the 3 I went back to the vertical push-ups to finish. Thanks to everyone for all your support!!

    Good Job to everyone!!

    8th day on level 1. I can hardly believe I have not wimped out yet like I usually do. This is probably my longest stretch of exercising each day since I was in high school. I am not telling Jillian I hate her as much as I was so I guess that means I am getting stronger. :smile: Still have not been able to get through second set of "girlie" pushup yet, my arms give out on me but I am determined to get there and then I am going to try regular pushups.

    30DS Level 1 Day 9. I did take yesterday off from all exercise. I felt like wonderwoman with fully rested muscles. I'm really enjoying this program.

    I had much success in 2009 by losing 12 lbs with the 30-day shred right before my BF's wedding. I am running right now and looking to incorporate this back into my work out routine. :flowerforyou:

    Boy did I fall off the wagon last week! I got so busy with school and my son that I was way too tired to work out after he went to bed. That also happens to be the only time I can get homework done, so homework won! I need to figure out a better system.... maybe getting up early, though DS gets up at 5:30 anyway so that would mean 5:00. So hard to do in winter when it's dark!

    Did L1, D9 today.:drinker:

    Then, I put my ipod on and did a lot of housework. I made sure to wear my HRM (heart rate monitor) so I was able to log some pretty sweet numbers into my exercise log. :love:

    I am definitely feeling stronger and WOW I can already feel that I have so much more energy. :bigsmile:
    When you don't workout, you also don't generate any energy to burn.

    When you do workout you do generate more energy to do more things.

    It's weird, but true.:huh:

    Hope everyone is on track with getting Shredded.:drinker:

    Day 9 this morning -- I'm finding I enjoy it more in the evening when I'm downstairs in my "gym", versus upstairs in the bedroom, plus in the morning I feel like I'm still half asleep. However, I'll keep up with it every day, be it morning or night.

    I hope everyone sticks with it!
