    I was doing great, lost 6lbs and 2inches in my waist from 11 days of doing the shred. Then an old knee injury decided to come back. So I haven't worked out for maybe a week now. I need physical therapy. =/ The dr said as soon as my knee feels better I can try to work out again (as long as i take 3 ibuprofen, 3 times daily... that's 9 a day if I want to work out!) *sigh* I'm feeling a little discouraged! I'm suppose to be on day 18, and the last day i did was 11!... Should I start over? Should I put up where I left off?

    And that's saying, if I can even do it at all. *Sigh*

    D4L2 ouch! my legs.
    I'm having problems with the plank exercises. My floor is kinda slippery, and me sweating doesn't help. *sigh*

    Get some of that shelf liner, the non slip kind. Cut out pieces to go under your feet, and hands if you have to. Or use a rubber exercise mat! :)

    Shelf liner of course! thanks for the idea, today was great!

    This is my first week on MFP. I started 30DS tonight. I do an hour of Zumba on Mondays and an hour of core/cardio/circuit (whatever the trainer says) on Tuesday and Thursday. I am so past ready to see some real changes in my body. I think I can do my group workouts on Mon, Tues, and Thurs and add the 30DS every day since it is ONLY (wink, wink) 20 min. Come on 'my fitness pals' give me a push...

    Go for it!! I've still been running with the program! And just starting walking, while pushing 100lbs worth of kids in stroller, on every other day! You can do it!

    Did D6L1 last night and still had lots of energy so thought I would try Level 2. Got through it with alot of fumbling and my body is mighty sore today. Was a really good workout.

    I have really bad knees so I incorporate low impact to the cardio movements with the addition of arms to make sure my heart rate gets up. I would rather do this and keep going than to have to stop because of knee injuries.

    Keep up the shred,

    Due to uncontrollable reasons, I have not worked out everyday for the last week. However, I did still managed to lose 3.8lbs. But, this has not been good due to the fact that I was on Day 4 of Level 2 of the 30 Day Shred. Well, things are back to normal now and I will start back working out everyday, but do I have to start all the way over from the beginning? Or can I just start Level 2 over?

    Hello! Today was D2 of L2, and I'm so happy that I am least not as sore as I was after D1 L1! The plank moves are killer, and I had to switch from 5 lb weights to 1.5 lb weights for the third circuit of strength. I'm really starting to feel the difference though!

    I would start at Level 2 unless you think you need a refresher course. :smile:

    I'm halfway done! Day 5 of lvl 2 today! I think I'll take some pics tomorrow and compare. Then pics at the end. I ran today before I worked out, and cut grass with push mower before I ran. I can really tell my muscles are readjusting and my endurance as well. Those first few days really drained my legs of energy! I couldn't even run 2 miles because they were so weak. But today that all changed! Looking forward to these last 5 days of lvl 2 then jumping up to lvl 3!! Woohoo!

    I would probably do Lvl 1 for a couple odf days just to get back into it, then move on to Lvl 2. Congrats on losing 3.8 lbs.
