    I didn't stop at all yesterday between a baby shower and a concert and by the time I got home it was almost 1am and I just passed out. Disappointed I didn't get to fit the shred in anywhere. So either today will be my Day 6 or I will fit in two seperate workouts and consider it Day 6 & 7 lol!

    I'm taking a rest day...weight loss challenge weigh in is tomorrow and it is the final weigh in. I'm in the final 2 and I want to give my body a rest hoping that will show a loss. I am .6 from my goal set for tomorrow so I am hoping to get to it! I am planting my entire vegetable garden today too so that is enough exercise for this girl! Enjoy your day today everyone !

    I am not. I started a day late, so I will use today to catch up. Planning on it next Sunday though. I will need it to prevent burnout.
    I'm off to shred when I log off.

    Day 7 done! I'm so happy that I've stuck with it for a whole week now! I won't be taking any rest days unless I feel like I absolutely need to. So far I'm enjoying shredding every day :glasses:

    INCREDIBLE!!! WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!! Thanks for the motivation :) Also it was good to see your numbers didn't change much in the first week. I'm still a little worried though. Hopefully changes will happen soon...

    Day 6 complete! I am very proud that I pulled this one off tonight considering I actually started after midnight. I refused to take TWO days off in a row. I am a little concerned though. I looked up my measurements from the first time I attempted the shred (4/18/11) and they are exactly the same now. I dropped pounds in those 5 weeks, have been running about 3 days a week and now a full week of the shred, and there were NO changes to my measurements... AT ALL!!! I must say, that's a bit more than disappointing...

    Just finished Day 7! I'm so glad I did it every day! I know if I would have taken a day off I would have stopped altogether. :happy:
  • I know I am a few days behind but today is Day 3 for me. I won't be taking any rest days (if I can help it) to help me catch up. Yesterday I was SORE SORE SORE after my workout. Seriously I could barely move but a good night's sleep did wonders for me because this morning I hardly feel sore at all. Just gotta get my little boy ready for the day then I am going to do Day 3 :) Happy shredding everyone!

    I just finished day 5!

    I had to work a crazy amount this weekend and on top of that I was completely exhausted on Friday when I did day 4 so I took 2 rest days. I'm actually pretty disappointed in myself for taking two whole days because I definitely could have fit a workout in yesterday and I chose not to. But today is Monday and what better day to start back up again!

    I'm feeling pretty discouraged honestly. I know I'm only 5 days into the shred but I'm a whole week into eating healthy and staying under 1200 calories and exercising on top of the shred and I think I actually gained a pound this week. I know the results will come but it's just a little disappointing.

    On a positive note I felt much better while working out today. The push ups are still impossible but there were several other parts of the video that I felt were just a tad easier for me today.

    jennnny- dont worry i gained 2lbs the first week, During the first week i did the shred twice in one day making it 8 times in 7 days, as well as dieting and riding me stationary bike. For some reason it sounds like literally everyone either stays the same or gains a pound or 2 the first week. Hang in there and get back at it, and you will see results! =]

    okay ladies, I'm sorry to say but I'm bowing out. It's not getting my heart rate up at all, and yes i'm pushing it. I don't need the strength moves because of the weight lifting i do, so they do me no good at all. The only useful part of the video for me is the abs, so I think i'll switch ot her abs workout 6 weeks to a 6 pack or whatever it's called and go back to the gym for my cardio. Thank you for letting me join in, and I wish you all a great workout month. Keep pushing and kick some *kitten*!

    hmm it wont let me edit my own post. just wanted to add that my knee is killing me and the baker's cyst is getting larger and it's really hampering my movement. Walking is fine, nothing else is. So back to the treadmill I go.

    You will be missed. :( Hope your knee feels better very soon!

    Day 7 finished for me - only one thing...when Jillian says "just a couple more" and then she's going more than 2, I get mad! LOL!! A "couple" has always meant "2" to me.

    See you all day 8/9/etc

    I went under a search on here and found a gal who lost quite a bit in the 30 days so I emailed her and asked if she would give me some advise and share what she did. She says she never sat down really...always kept moving besides doing the shred. She also ate a lot of vegies and lean meats...aka, ate very clean. I thought it was great advise. I have upped my protein as well and keep drinking lots of water and my yummy sun tea.

    Day 8 done for me. It's been a little tough cause I feel really run down. I have this bad cold that kinda popped up out of nowhere, but I am determined not to let it mess up my workouts! I'm very happy with how my endurance has improved in a week. I can do all the pushups without any pauses.. I tried doing un-modified push ups and I can do like 1 or 2, which is amazing since I have never in my life been able to do that before!! I'm not looking forward to Level 2 though! It looks tough :sad:

    Edit to say that I took some quick measurements this morning and I've lost an inch off my upper waist and 1/2 inch off my waist!! :noway:
