    Well I hate to say this but I won't be able to be part of the group. I dislocated my shoulder this afternoon doing the video towards the end and am out of commission for a while, I have had this problem for a while but never had my shoulder pop out put my hand behind my head for a sit up. So I wish you guys all the luck with this and I will still be here for support, wishing I was able to do it with you guys :sad: Good luck!!

    Oh my goodness sweetie! That is awful! Take care of yourself and hope u feel better soon. :flowerforyou: :smokin:

    Just completed day 1. My HRM said 159 calories burned. It was though, the weights were the worst part for me. Can't wait for tomorrow!

    Day 1 completed.....

    I had to do the cardio low impact because I hurt my knee when I went walk/jogging earlier at the park. But I did spurts of high impact in between. The lunges and squats were very much beginner-ish because of the knee but I got a great work out in......I have no HRM so I log it using MFP....

    I have a good feeling I'll make it to the end this time....

    This was harder than I wanted it to be. I think if I'd done it this morning like I planned it might have been okay but i slept through my alarm so I did it tonight after i spent an hour in the gym lifting weights. Something I do fairly briskly to get my heart rate up. So yeah, I dropped the weights on a few because I just spent an hour working out that muscle group. lol and jumping jacks? I too almost knocked myself out from my ta-ta's bouncing because i've lost weight and my enell sports bra/armour is too loose. lol but it's all good. My heart rate was up and i sweated. Tomorrow I'll make sure I get out of bed on time. This is gonna be awesome. Let's kick some butt!

    L3D4 completed tonight.

    It's great to see all the excitement for this thread. I've been hoping for an active 30DS thread!

    So I went to the gym tonight and jogged almost 4 miles. Then I came home and decided to attempt Day 1 at 9:54pm. Funny enough, I went into the thread from the first time I attempted 30DS and I did the same exact thing except it was 9:30pm! Hopefully history does NOT repeat itself this time and I am able to continue this time :)

    So Day 1 is complete and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a tough time walking tomorrow. Tomorrow night is gym night again so I just have my fingers crossed that I can still pull this off when I get home afterwards.

    I also took my measurements tonight. I don't own a flexible tape measure so I used a cord and lined it up against a regular old metal tape measure. So I'm not sure of the acuracy of my measurements, but I figure if I measure myself again in 30 days the same way, at least then I should see the numbers consistently.

    Bust - 43.5
    Chest - 38.5
    Waist - 34.25
    Navel - 38.5
    Hips - 46 (eek)
    Thighs - 25.5
    Arms - 15.5

    Great job on Day 1 everyone!!!! Here's to Day 2!!!

    L1D1 done!! What a workout! My entire body feels weak. It was a lot tougher than I expected (to be honest, I thought a lot of people were just exaggerating lol.) Serves me right! Anyway, here is my current weight and measurements. I took before pics in my bikini this afternoon but hubby flipped when he heard I was going to post them online.... I think after I finish the Shred and compare Before and After pics, if there is enough of a difference I'll be able to post them online without him putting up too much of a fight ;)

    Weight: 149.6

    Neck: 14
    Arms: -R- 10 3/4 -L- 10 1/2
    Bust: 39.5
    Chest (underbust): 32 1/2
    Upper waist: 32
    Waist: 31 1/2
    Lower waist: 38 1/2
    Hips: 41
    Thighs: -R- 23 1/2 -L- 23 3/4
    Calves: -R- 13 1/2 -L- 13 3/4

    P.S. how come jumping jacks were so easy in grade school? :huh:

    Mine are too. In fact, I think my tummy is bigger than my boobs. :(

    Hey everyone! Today is day 2 for most of us and before we start out, thought I would post a reminder that no matter how sore u woke up today, make sure to stretch beforehand...it will help reduce the soreness u will have tomorrow. Also, I did a community search on here for 30 day shred results...awesome and encouraging to read! I see people either lose no weight or hardly any, while others lose quite a bit. Just shows how different our bodies are. However, everyone reports many inches lost and feeling stronger and great! Now that is something to look forward to! And our ending measurments are going to be outstanding!

    We can do this and when we finish, imagine how good we are going to look and feel beginning of our summertime!

    Question...are u doing other exercise besides 30ds?

    I am training for my first 5k on June 12th so I am also doing the C25K program and some strength training and abs at the gym. That's why I'm hoping I can stick to the 30DS this time because it seems like a lot to pack in. Fingers crossed!

    You can do it...I believe in you. And your 5k will go better with a stronger body. I'm doing a run the week after and going for a personal goal so we can do the running and shred together. :) just listen to your body to prevent injury. :)

    Yes, I agree. I honestly felt on top of the world last night - must have been just what I needed mentally to get through a tough day/night. And I feel great today again minus the soreness I already expected to have. Mentally, I am on fire!! RAWR
