    hearing all your inch losses I really wanna check my measurements but seem to have put the tape measure in a 'safe place' -fatal!

    on a plus side I've lost my weekend fluctuation (there WILL NOT be one this weekend) & I had to wear a belt to keep up my work trousers (admitttedly not clown-style falling down but stil good I figure...)

    Ya'll are just incredible, amazing women. Keep up the hard work. Happy Birthday Latoya. I hope you have a wonderful time at Olive Garden. Drink a margarita for me!

    I have to confess something to ya'll.................





    I so did not work out this morning because I had a um, hm, *cough*, friend over last night and I only got 3 hours of sleep. So, I will be working out this afternoon. Hopefully I can stay awake!

    this morning looking in the mirror I was horrified to see my boobs had pretty much shrunk and are now very difficult to see!!! Grrrrr!!!

    This and extra skin are the two things I hate most about losing weight! I'm fine with eating less and exercising tons but extra skin and saggy boobs are no fun!
    Maybe they'd stuck something to Jillians back and were smiling at that?

    LMOA!

    I tried on a long lost outfit this morning...just for kicks and giggles. My expectations were low but I'm all about testing the limits. It was a size 18 suit. Not an 18W. BTW, the "W" is supposed to stand for "WOMENS" but I really think it stands for WIDE:grumble:

    Anyway, I looked at the waistband and thought, "Yeah, alright....if I can just get this skirt over my butt I'll be surprised."

    I GOT IT UP OVER MY BUTT!
    I BUTTONED IT!

    I thought about zipping it and sitting down but it's a fantastic suit and I just didn't feel ready for all that:ohwell:

    But I haven't been able to wear this skirt in over 3 years. It's still too snug for my taste but 2 months ago it wouldn't even button. More motivation for butt kicks and lunges.

    Oh, and Natalie is a fraud. A fit fraud who happens to be built like a brick house....but a fraud nonetheless!

    pluh.... So I just did day 2... I skipped a few days (not in my regular workouts but on 30 DS); no real excuses other than life got busy.
    I'm back though.
    Since I skipped a few days I decided to kill it and did level1 and level 2 to see how hard it was comparatively... why did I do that? lol two of those workouts in a row will kill you! My shirt was soaked!

    Done today and feeling improvements in indurance. Hey ladies... the key to those butt kicks I have found is to hold your boobs still while doing them. THey are MUCH more do-able that way !!

    kicking myself in the butt right now for not thinking of this while my boobs have been hurting like a mofo due to pms h2O retention. you are a life saver for today's workout & the future! GRACIAS!

    Day 5 is DUNZO. I did a lot of things today, I'm just glad I got through it. The boyfriend barely did.

    Finally got my workout in. I really didn't feel like it tonight, but I knew I would have to confess that to you guys and I didn't really want to do that!

    Pfftt....

    Just weighed.. Gained 1lb, 'it's OK it must be water, I've probably lost some inches' I tell myself. erm... no. I've gained 1cm om my waist, hips, thigh and arm EACH!!

    Maybe I'm overdoing it a little at the moment. I might just back on other exercise for a couple of days and eat a little cleaner, see how that goes.

    Anyway, hope everyone is OK!

    Day 6 done :) I was quite sore after both 30DS and water workout yesterday but managed it.
    I weighed and measured myself and have put on 1lb plus 1 inch on my bust - weird! I'm guessing that'll change soon enough though. Fingers crossed for Saturday!

    Snap re gaining 1lb and I've gained on my bust too which is odd. Maybe water retention or muscle gain or one of those things people are always mentioning ;) I also may be overdoing the exercise but I want to complete the challenge and I love my aqua zumba and water workout classes so want to keep at it - maybe just nothing on top of all that ;)

    Oh, last night when I did the Shred my arms and my calves are really stiff, this morning I can really feel my calves feeling achy. Any ideas to help?

    Modernsoul - I've got my boyfriend doing it too and he's feeling the pain too.

    Lurker here.....I had the same problem! I weighed myself at day 5 of level one and had put on 2lb:sad: Day 10 level 1 today and I have lost the 2lb plus a wee bit more and I've dropped centimetres off nearly everywhere I measured!!
    Keep at it!! The results you want to see are just a few days away!!:heart:

    That's how I feel this morning!

    Could not get my brain to shut up to wind down.

    It was a long frustrating day yesterday work wise and when I got off work all I wanted was ice cream. Granted, I didn't have any ice cream and I didn't go out and buy any. It's just time for this girl to find a new line of work before I go completely off the deep end.

    Boncharlie suggested frozen grapes which sound lovely so I'll be picking some up from grocery store when I can get there after payday.

    Any other awesome suggestions for snacks? Healthy ones that is. I'm stuck in a grocery rut as it is with buying the same stuff over and over.

    Here's to Day 6! Bring it on!

    xo

  • Ok , so I woke up feeling a bit more human again so am back with the programme... YAY!!! a word of caution to all... 3 days of not excercising and then going back to the shred is as bad as doing day 1 all over again!!!

    the star jumps are killing me and even though I have upgraded my baked bean cans to 1kg weights, my arms are actually enjoying it (did I just say that out loud?) ... I may feel differently in a few hours though LOL

    I think this puts me on D3L1 or should I start counting again cos I had more than a day off doing it?
