30 Day Shred for big girls <3

Options
I just wanted to tell everyone that it IS POSSIBLE to do 30 day shred when you are "bigger". I'm currently at 251 and I'm doing the shred. I'm on day 9 and already lost pounds and inches. I have to dig REAL deep to do the exercises and have to do the modified versions on some or take short 5 second breaks here and there. BUT as long as your moving and trying, you will still see results. I can't wait until day 30. So if you're "bigger" and you're scared to start it - give it a try! <3 .... I started this with NO and I mean NO previous strength or cardio in my plan. This was my frist exercise plan ....not that I would reccomend that-- but I just wanted to send out some encouragement for those who are wondering if they can do this popular DVD even though they aren't in ONEderland. Don't be scared just try it,.... you have nothing to loose .... but pounds and inches. lol!


XO!

    Good going! I have to say..i was afraid of Jillian..but when i did it..it hurt..but it was a good hurt! I love it..although i feel off the wagon and started purchasing other DVD's..Biggest Looser..etc. I ocasionally let Jillian beat me up..i havent tried the next level yet..im still on Level 1. Good Luck with it..and yes, the results are great..especially if your true to yourself.

    It certainly is do-able... I'm around 275lbs and with much puffing and some swearing I can manage it - ok it's not all 100% but if it is was I wouldn't need to be doing it!!

    It's damn hard work though!!

    Yes, it is possible. I am around 221 now and i have done it off and on for the last couple of months. I do notice a difference when I am able to stick with it.
