Well, today is my 6th day shredding and I did the gazelle for an hour.

Day 7 for me shredding + an hour on the gazelle.

shadechick

Where's everyone at?? Y'all better be shredding! I about gave up shredding today though, but didn't. I only did 30 mins on the gazelle instead of my normal hour. It's 10:30 and I'm tired though. Oh well... my calories are still fine for the day even with cutting it in half.

hey i was posting on the other thread and then everyone stopped posting on there too... I started the Shred on Dec 1st as well. My start weight was 141.6.. however I've gained since I started but its my muscles holding in water I guess. I've also been doing the EA Active game on the Wii and the Biggest Loser game on the Wii as well as running. So today is Day 8 Level 1 for me!!! Can't wait, I can definitely tell its getting easier

shadechick

My friend was hosting a Biggest Loser Finale party, so I went there and only had time to just do the shred last night. I was really ready to quit too!

I did day 8 on level 1 yesterday and will be doing day 9 as well as my wii games and a run this morning. I was actually.. can't believe I'm saying this... but a little bored yesterday. lol The workout went so fast and nothing felt overly difficult anymore, I'm definitely ready to move up to Level 2 on Friday!

I hope we get more shredders to keep posting

shadechick

Well supermom, looks like it's just me and you left shredding!

Today was day 10 for me and I started level 2, and also did an hour on the gazelle. Level 2 is definitely a step up. I was bored with level 1 too, I guess that's why I wanted to quit. When I started level 1, my legs were killing me... level 2 my abs are really feeling it.

Good luck and I'm glad you're still with me!!

Going to do every move with Natalie and with perfect form. I can't wait to start Level 2 if its more of an ab workout, I LOVE working my abs! I wish I could get abs like Anita's lol Keep up the hard work, girl! I'm off for a run then the shred and then getting my first tattoo today! So Excited!!

I've been posting in the other thread as well. Today was my 6th day on level 1. I started on Dec 4th (took 1 day off, had an outing with family then came home to no power!).

Starting weight was 173. Current weight is 172! yay!

I finished day 9 of level 1 today! I am excited that tomorrow is my last day with this. I am ready to move on to level 2. I am running every other day also. Today was only 2 miles on the icy roads after yesterdays storm! I wasn't going to use that as an excuse. I am so determined. Jillian really makes me want to to better!

shadechick

Ok, didn't have time to post yesterday, but I did day 2 of level 2, which was my 11th day total. FYI, no matter how hungry you are, don't eat beforehand!! My dinner came up and then I came back and finished shredding! lol I also did an hour on the gazelle.

Thanks for the link to the other page, maybe I'll post todays exercise there tonight.

shadechick

Ok, I'm also posting on the other shred now too.

Today was my 12th day, 3rd day on level 2. I also did an hour on the gazelle.

My high point today came when my hubby was poking at my tummy (which I hate and always tell him to stop) and he said that it's firmer and he could tell a difference! Yay for him noticing results! (even if I can't)

inkprincess

Today will be level 1, day 8! I've now lost 2lbs this week. YAY! Feel so much better about myself!

shadechick

Day 13, and day 4 on level 2. I also did the gazelle for an hour and walked who knows how much at the outlet mall.

shadechick

So, sadly, I did not get to shred yesterday. I was super busy and also had a Christmas party to go to, so I wasn't eating well either. By the time I got home, it was 10pm and I was too tired to do anything. I did however manage to squeeze in 20 mins on the gazelle. I'll do better today.

inkprincess

I didn't get to shred yesterday. But I did ice skate, so I wasn't that lazy! Today will be level 1, day 9! 2 more days on level 1!

shadechick

Did the shred and did 40 mins on the gazelle, only cause it's getting late.

shadechick

Ok, so last night was Day 14 total, Day 5 on Level 2. I also did the gazelle for an hour.

Looks like the other thread is locked. I'll continue posting here, for accountability sake.

shadechick

Yesterday was 15th day shredding, Day 6 on level 2, and did an hour on the gazelle.

shadechick

Ok, so I've been on vacation since Friday and this is the first day I could work out. Only did the shred. I unfortuantly haven't been able to eat right either, but I'll deal with it when we get back home

shadechick

Ok, so I've been away for Christmas for a while and yesterday I jumped back on the wagon.
It was my 17th day total, Day 8 on level 2. I also did the gazelle for an hour.

I didn't shred completely last night, I mostly skipped out of the strength training. I've noticed a change since shredding, but it's been mainly muscle and not weight loss. This is great, except I am on a WEIGHT challenge that ends in February, so I think I'm going to exclude strength training until after I win this competition!! I'll worry about muscle later! Anyone have any specific advice to help with weight loss? I just wish I was seeing the numbers, hoping that will change when I stop the strength training.

shadechick

Ok, so what is it, day 18 total, day 9 on level 2. I did modify tonight and did extra abs and cardio during the strength training. I previewed level 3 (from my couch!) to see if I might be ready for it, but since I had about a 2 week break in the middle of level 2, I'm not ready yet. I'll need a few more days of level 2 before I get to level 3. I also did an hour on the gazelle and I am ready for bed! I sleep much better when I'm exercising, and feel much better. I love it.
