    L1D2 was definitely harder with my arms already sore from yesterday, but I know they'll get used to it. Looking forward to kicking my own butt some more tomorrow! :)

    I couldn't get to the Shred last nite as I came down with the flu in the afternoon yesterday :( Luckily it was only a 24 hour one... I have gotten lots of rest and am feeling much better.

    I completed Level 1 Day 1. Now I remember why I HATE the SHred.. Jillian Michaels kicks my butt. Her strength training is always so tough for me, maybe 1 minute of doing something straight just feels like soo long. And my Ab muscles SUCK.

    But I remember why I tough it out! At the end of the 30 workouts (no matter how many days it takes to get through 30 of them) the change is amazing. The amount of muscle and toning is awesome.

    Let's keep at it.. even those exercises *cough*cough* side lunges anterior raises*cough*cough that hurt us.

    I'm doing this too :) I started early as I wanted to just get to it so I am on day 7. It is definitely getting easier, I don't feel like I'm going to die when I am done, though it is still tough to get up the stairs!

    Good luck all! Stay with it, my body is already changing after a week of doing it :)

    Level 1 day 3 complete...

    I hear you guys on the shoulders sucking, the toughest ones for me are the shoulder press and the lateral raises.

    I also have a difficulty with the bicycle in the last circuit for abs. I can never last more than 15 of them than I have to break. It always seems to hurt my lower back (maybe my ab muscles are just that weak!)

    just finished L1day10! Phew! Definitely getting easier to get up and with the time change, I have a quiet house to myself as I got up at the regular time :)

    I hit a plateau this week and was getting discouraged that I hadn't lost anything. But I redid my measurements and realized I have lost an inch of my waist in the last week--now that is worth getting excited about!

    So hang in there guys, even if the scale doesn't move. And take starting measurement,s, I didn't until 4 days in and I wish I had done them in the very beginning :)

    If I can do this and stick with it, you can too!

    I'm on day 3 and this thing is kicking my *kitten* right now. I keep reading iut's easier after Day 3, I really, really hope so!

    I'm struggling to do the squat with arm raises. I usually have to drop weights by the time she walks over to the beginner assistant. My goal is to get it past her now :) Everything else I can do, even if I'm seriously hurting by the end.

    Okay a little behind. My schedule is beyond crazy and I have been sick. So getting up at 3:45 am to do this just wasn't happening. But I made it happen this morning :bigsmile:

    L1D1 done

    I started this back in August. I find it a really great workout, but don't think I need to stay a lot of days on this level. My biggest challenge is the anterior lunges with lateral raises. But it felt so good to get it going this morning. I think I may only do 5 days at level one then move onto level 2 this Saturday. I only did level 2 twice last time around, so I know I will need more days on that level then level 1.

    You ladies are all doing great. Keep up the hard and great work!!!! :flowerforyou:

    Happy Monday!!!!!! Have a super fantastic day!!!!

    Happy Tuesday!!

    L1D2 done

    Feeling good. Feeling a little bit sore today, sure I will feel some more tomorrow. I still think I may only do 5 days at level one then move onto level 2 this Saturday.
