    - 30 Day Shred, day 17 (day 7 of level 2)

    Definitely counting down the last two days. I still cannot say that I enjoy this level any more than on day one. Definitely ready to risk level 3, even if it is harder...

    :laugh: Well folks I completed the shred this morning, I feel so accomplished! I did not do it on 30 days, more like 60! I lost all my original measurements so I was only able to compare the ones I put on MFP so here goes...neck down 1 inch, waist down 5 inches, and hips down 5 inches!!! I'm super excited! Next week I begin The Firm DVDs, then I will do the shred again!:drinker:

    Today will be Day 4 of Level 2 for me! I have a love/hate relationship with this DVD. But I feel I am getting stronger and I love the way I feel when I am done working out. (tired!) :tongue:

    (The last 3 days of Level 1, I also did the first 3 days of Level 2. Gotta love the two-a-days, lol)

    I'm hoping to get more wonderful results by my birthday, Nov 30th! So far I have lost 5 lbs in 9 days of the shred.

    :drinker: KEEP SHREDDING EVERYONE!! :drinker:

    Completed L1D2 last night but just barely!! I pretty much had to drag myself to do it because I was still so sore from Monday's workout but I'm super glad that I did. I plan on getting D3 in tonight and I'm not too sure what the weekend holds. It will more than likely depend on whether the boyfriend comes down for the weekend or not.

    I was sore for the first 3 days. By the fourth day, you should be WAY LESS sore than the first 3 days! ;]

    I'm only on level 1 day 10!! yes as of Monday I shall be moving up to level 2.... if you never hear from me again then you all know why!

    For those who are only in day 2/3 of level 1...trust me, it does get 'easier'... i was so sore after day 2, i ached a bit after day 1...but by day 2 i couldnt see a day 3 happening any time soon... when it became a struggle to even get to pee, I knew it was obviously working!! haha.... no pain no gain peeps!! Just work through it, take a iburofen to help relax your muscles, get up day 3 and just plod on and do, and as others have said it does get easier! i cannot believe the ache/sore i was in after 48 hours, but 24 hours after that, you wouldnt have thought anything had happened!!

    I haven't taken any measurements, stupid I know... but i do know i have a wedding dress to get into in 6.5 months time that is about an inch or two all over smaller, as had another stone to lose by wedding! The dress comes back in March so im hoping itll be a bit more than 1-2inches here or there!! I'm hoping for some bigger numbers!! lets hope 30DS does it for me!!! x

    Day 6 level 2 completed. One tip, plank jumps are much easier doing the hard way than the easy way. Wouldn't have said before today though.

    For level 1 ive been inputting circuit training (general) for tracking my exercise...but obviously level 2 and 3 will work you harder so surely you'll be burning more calories?
    What have people been inputting when tracking? x

    p.s level one is now DONE!!

    I started Monday. I used the dvd last yr but never with the intention of finishing it. This time I will finish. I did day 5 of level one today. Taking a break this weekend and finishing up days 6-10 next week.

    Completed L1D3 last night!! Halfway through the workout, I was cursing Jillian and never wanting to do that workout again. And then when it was all said and done, I realized that it may be tough but its still totally manageable and the results will be amazing so I need to stick with it and finally be able to say that I have accomplished something!

    Give it another week or 2, you will start seeing results. Might be a small weight loss, but have you been taking measurements? Also hopefully you took before pics so you can compare in another 2 weeks! Keep it up, great job!! ...And stick with it! :wink:

    Dilemma...I did days 2 and 3 consecutively and could potentially get the opportunity to continue with days 4 and 5 to add to that streak but that would mean I have to do day 4 tonight at 10:00 and then day 5 tomorrow morning at 9. Any ideas on how I should work this out?? Does it even matter??

    Now that I figured out how to actually post pictures, I wanted to share with all of you my results! Now, just incase anyone is curious - I did NOT follow the JM diet plan, but I stayed within my calorie limit. Also, I didn't do the whole dvd 30 days straight. Most weeks I took off Saturday and Sunday. I think I lost around 10lbs with the dvd, and I rarely did any extra exercise with it (maybe once or twice a week sporadically). Unfortunately, I took my measurements half way through, and I believe I lost the most inches within the first half. BUT my pictures are from the beginning to the end.....and here they are......:smile:

    I don't believe anything is HUGELY noticeable, but I wanted to share with everyone in this post that kept me motivated throughout this 30 day journey.

    Feel free to add me as a friend, next I will be doing Ripped in 30. Thanks for reading :flowerforyou:
