    I find that if I do the Shred after I have already worked out elsewhere, I have a harder time with it. I think I will Shred first from now on.

    I'm on Day 6 level 1. I'm getting much better now. I still take the MUCH needed 5 second breaks here and there, but I can do the advanced moves on a lot of things. Today I ate raw red onion with my lunch, and then 2 hours later did the Shred. I kept having to stop and sit down because my tummy was too spicy. No more of that!

    oh no re the onion and working out. Can't imagine that was fun.

    So another Shred down. I might try out level 3 tomorrow. I'll see how I feel by the time I get around to working out.
    I did discover today that I like working out in our backroom which isn't carpeted as opposed to our carpeted livingroom. So what took me 18 days to figure that out! :)

    OMG did my first day of level 3...KILLER.
    Once I get the hang of some of the exercises I can see it won't be as bad and the jumping jacks with weights weren't as hard as I thought they would be but OMG I sweated a ton.

    I started doing the Shred about a month ago, and have lost 20 lbs since, it's awesome! The first few days I was so sore and couldn't move. But it totally pays off. It's hard in the beginning, but then you get used to it, and the results are so worth it. Good Luck Everyone!

    i decided to have a break from Jillian for a few days - on the up side i rocked up 2100 calories hiking u a mountain yesterday, so i think it kinda balances out ;). Starting back today methinks.

    Wow awesome job with the hike. How long were you hiking for?
    I don't feel like doing the Shred today but I'm going to push myself especially since my husband wants to do dinner at the local burger joint tonight and I feel like spoiling myself with some yummy food today!

    Wow 9 miles of hiking, way to go!!!

    How was day 9 Rose? You will know when it's time to move on to another level. For me it was when I could do more than a few push ups.

    I'm skipping the Shred today as I have 90 minutes of skating coming up this evening and I'm sure few runthroughs of our 3.5 minute program so I don't want to be hurting for that and I think the 1000 or so calories I burn doing that should be enough.

    Wow you'll have quite the workout with the 30DS and Zumba. Good for you

    I just ordered her Banish Fat Boost Metabolism and 6 Week Six Pack DVDs. I like her way of training I guess is the word. I find lots of DVD trainer people annoying but her I like.

    Hi all!

    I'm new here but have been at the shred for a couple of weeks now. I'm on level 2 day 5 but i don't think it will be happening tonight!

    How are you all logging it calorie-wise?

    When I first started, I used circuit training, then I bought a hrm and MFP gave me slightly more calories, but it was pretty close.

    Wow awesome work Rose.
    I wasn't going to shred today because I have skating again but hubby is home and can entertain the little guy so maybe I will. I think I might just do level 2 instead of level 3 today. I kind of liked level 2 and miss it.
