FatGirl Shredding

I have struggled with when I should post pics on the Success Stories board. I have a long, long (LONG!) way to go before I am at my goal, so I figured it would be a while before I would post any transformation pics here.

But there's been a lot of talk 'round here about whether or not the super-heavy can do the 30 Day Shred. And I want to tell anyone who is wondering...

H3LL YES you can shred!

I have just finished 14 days of Level 1. I did a few days extra just because I felt like I needed it. Ok, and I was terrified of Level 2.

I'm hoping 3 thngs:
1 - That you can see a difference ('cause I sure do)
2 - That this motivates you to do a workout that really challenges you
3 - That you will be kind to me because I'm a little freaked out about posting pics of myself so early in my journey :blushing:

(edited to add that I just finished Level 1)

    As for when to post, I did mine at the 1 year mark. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/779095-awakening-a-work-in-progress

    I'll probably do another when I reach my ultimate goal AND can show major muscle gain. I say any milestone you're incredibly and rightfully proud of!
  • You have been working your tail off! I am glad you are here, your posts are always pretty positive and you have such a momentum going it's just great to be along for the ride. Looking good!
  • I can certainly see the difference - and I just wanted to thank you. I've started the 30 Day Shred and honestly after last nights workout I was so worn out I knew I would have a hard time convincing myself to do it again today. You've just convince me! If you don't mind I'm going to add you as a friend - because I really want to know how this next phase goes for you!

    Congrats on your awesome result!
  • Good job! :D I'm doing the 30 day shred too and just one more day of level 2. I love it so much I lost the weight I always wanted to lose but could never go past the 125 pounds. Good luck! and keep going it's tough but hard work will be payed off

    I can definitely tell a difference!

    Your lower abdomen and face are visibly thinner.

    Good job and keep going! :smile:

    Great idea, I'm just adding my two cents to say that the first time I did it I COULDN'T EVEN FINISH one workout and I'm so glad I went back and did it again, because on the second day I could already get all the way through. I'm glad you have pictures with your story, and you are looking GREAT! Congratulations!

    OMG, I love you! :heart: It took a lot of courage to post these pics, but you have done SO well - and it really is an important issue. You cannot wait until you've "dropped a few" before you start the real work. Drop a few and drop a lot of muscle. You, my girl, will preserve all that muscle and be SUPER hot when reach your goal (which, btw, will be all the sooner for the hard work).

    My new hero! :flowerforyou:

    You have done really well and I am so proud of you. I am on level 2, day 8 and it is bloody tough. But yes you can definitely see a difference and you will definitely put those people who say they can't do it to shame. Jillian even says herself that she has known people over 400 to do it. I can highly recommend the shred and for it to work you have to be totally committed to finishing the who programme to see the benefits as you have. So once again well done and keep going. :flowerforyou:
