    Today is day 14. I have been waking up sick all week but still have pushed through every day at 5 am. But every dayt I have just gotten sicker (congestion, sore throat, no voice, headache). Today I got up at 5, started the workout and didn't even make it through one walking push-up before I basically collapsed crying cuz I feel so miserable. I still feel sick this afternoon, but I am trying to decide it I should push myself through it or not? I am just not getting over this cold/flu. I did the shred twice on Wednesday. Any advice guys? Still sticking to my calories and drinking lots of water.

    OK-sucked it up and did my shred! Went back to level 1 but that makes 14 days no missed days! I think that I am going to stick to level one for a few more days. It is still challenging me a lot, and I would rather do even 30 days straight at level one than to get so discouraged with level two that I quit. I think I may throw in level 2 every couple days and when I get ambitious in the afternoon and do an extra workout. Do you think that sounds ok? I am a newbie to this whole diet and exercise thing, hence the 200+ lbs. :blushing:

    Have not logged my food this weekend, but I feel like I have made decent choices given the many events we had this weekend (like a brunch with friends and dinner out with family on the same day). I have kept up my water and as of this morning, I am past the halfway mark with Jillian!!!
    Day 16 Level 1-No skipped days and one day double.
    Stats: down 4 lbs and 13 inches!!!

    So I'm back from camping and had a nice weekend - a few too many biscuits and glasses of wine though! I did manage to do my complete Level 2 Shred in the field though which I was really proud of! Haha. And on Sunday I went for a run! So I did manage to keep my exercise going despite being in a field with 22 kids and a hell of a lot of cooking to do! Haha!

    So back to Shredding infront of a TV today - thinking about doing it twice but we'll see how I feel later! I'm on Day 8 now so Level 3 will be starting this week! Bit excited about that!!

    17 down. 13 to go!!! Still at level 1, but I don't feel too bad about that considering I went from no workouts at all straight into the shred. Just happy that I have dragged myself out of bed every morning to do it. It is incredible to see the changes in my body after just two weeks. I have a long long way to go, but it is an awesome start. So 13 days, then I get my nice week break at Disneyland, then back to it! Hopefully next time round I can tackle level 2 without feeling like I'm going to break my wrists! :ohwell:
    Keep up the great work everyone!

    This level two is really kicking my butt. Thou I am doing a lot of the advanced moves that Natalie does. I am thinking I may stay on level two for a bit till it becomes a little easier.

    Mine does too! I think maybe from the push-ups. I am putting a LOT of weight on my arms! It's actually why I stopped doing level 2. All those walking push-ups and planks were killing my inner arms and wrists. I'm a pianist, so I really can't risk my wrists!

    I am finding Level 2 is getting a little bit easier. The planks are tough, but am trying to get through them.

    Quick update on my "twice in 1 day" event! I decided to have a sneaky go at Level 3 even though I'm not due to start it until Thursday - WOW! I think I'm going to like it! It's bloody hard!! And I like a good workout!

    So ladies, enjoy Level 2 - I'll be looking forwards to it tomorrow now I've seen how much Level 3 is going to kick my butt completely!!

    I upped the weight of the dumbells I use today for a little bit more intensity and I can tell it made a difference. Today I was able to keep up with Natalie for everything except for pushups. I hope some day I will be able to. I think tomorrow I will do one set of pushups with Natalie and one with Anita until I get better. Keep it up everyone!

    Trying to get myself motivated this morning was tough, but I did it. Wondering if I should give Level 3 a shot tomorrow. I am really not liking the planks to much, especially after using weights. My arms are tired. Decisions, decisions.

    Level 3 day 1 last night, that one is tough! I was on vacation in San Diego and was able to workout for 20 minutes everyday but I didn't have weights so I just pretended, or picked up DH's shoes! So I am proud of myself for sticking to the 30 days no matter what! the 1200 calories/day is another story...
