    Jerzee, you have absolutely NO idea! I mean I love him for even offering to Shred with me! it was his idea to workout with me I guess to prove that I was being a wimp when I told him how hard it was. Well look who's the wimp now sucka! LOL Every shredder should feel great that we just beat a guy that does 24 hour mountain bike races! ROCK ON DIVAS!!!

    Well, I took Callie's advise and took a day off; my shoulder already feels better. I will see how the rest of today goes and decide whether I will do the Shred today or wait til tomorrow. I dont want to reinjure my shoulder.

    Today is the last day of week one!!! We did it!!! Great job, ladies!!!!!

    I love to read about your motivation, your strength, your improvements, but most of all, if you take a look over the thread, we have all come very far!!! Congratulations!!! Keep it up!

    We will continue to post here until the 10th day, which according to the "first" day of this thread, will be Wednesday. At that point, a new thread will be started and we will post our weights and measurements again! Leeslim made it a point to compare hers so feel free to do that. I think its a great idea!

    Happy Sunday all!

    Have a great day!

    L1D9...one more day on level 1...I took the night off and didn't get on the treadmill though. It actually felt good to take a break.

    I will weigh and measure tomorrow...regardless of how much I have lost..I feel great, and that's what matters most!

    Good job everyone!

    I'm so jealous. I just ordered the DVD on Amazon, but since it is coming from a 3rd party seller and I didn't spring for the fast shipping, the expected delivery date is "March 5 - March 22"! ACK!

    Oh well.

    I have already been doing fast-paced 15-20 minute circuits using bodyweight exercises (pushups, squats, etc.) 3x/week already. I doubt I push myself as hard as Jillian will, but I guess I'm easing into it then. Can't wait to join the group, though!

    L1D7 DONE!! It's certainly gotten "easier" from starting on Monday. I am doing all the push-ups, and cardio without feeling like I can't make it. The ONLY think I have some issues with is finishing with the EXTRA slow bicycle. :explode:

    I am going to bang out my first 10 days straight, then take an off day before moving into Level 2!

    Wohooo .. take that Jillian!! :bigsmile:

    If you check my post a few pages back I posted a link to Jillian Michaels 30 day slimdown. It's through exercise tv and you can download the workout on there until your dvd comes in if you don't want to wait that long to begin

    L1D7 DONE! Can't believe I survived a week! haha I was definitely able to get through almost the whole thing today! I did take 5 seconds to breathe in circuit 1 during the jumping jacks and jump rope, cause I think I need to drink more water before doing the workout. My mouth gets so dry I can't even swallow and feel like I'm going to choke. So I took 5 seconds to breath n sip a little water. Other than that I made it through everything except those freakin pushups! I even made it through most of the bicycle crunches! I'm getting closer slowly but surely I'll be able to complete the WHOLE level 1 without stopping or modifying ( I hope)! For all of the cardio whenever I wanted to stop, I looked at my new GSP calendar on the wall & thought how sexy he looked from all the working out he does HAHA

    After the shred I took like 15 minutes to chug some water and bring my heart rate down a little, then did about 20 minutes of Banish Fat Boost Metabolism, but now I have to go get ready for work :( Hope you all have/had a great day 7 (or whatever day/level you are on) workout!!!!!!!

    p.s. I totally had to do a couple of my measurements because I just feel like I lost inches & I'm pretty satisfied with the results so far :)

    mmrose-- great job making it through so much of the level! I also have trouble with those stupid bicycle crunches going so slowly!!!! I feel like I put too much strain on my neck doing those, even though i do feel it in my abs!
