    Ok so Im on day 5 today and its also my weigh in for MFP and I gained 1.2 lbs ughh , you know how long it took me to just lose that much and I gain it back?! Thats very discouraging. I know it can be muscle who knows since Im only on day 5. ughhhh

    It will come off just hang in there, the muscle you are building will start getting burning the fat :) and you are going to look a lot smaller even if the weight stays the same.

    Just wanted to add that I gained in the first few days as well, I think it's just water from sore muscles, I weighed myself yesterday after a rest day, and was at the lowest weight I've been yet.

    Thanks that gives me some hope. I need to be more strict with calories too. I feel hungry all the time. Just finished day 5 with a bit of cardio after.

    I'm starting to get some pain in my right knee during the squats. And it's not the squat doing it to me, I've been doing them for a while, and I can go all the way to the ground and back up for the full 30 seconds no problem. But I'm worried I'm going to hurt my knee!! Should I wrap it in a bandage or something first from now on?

    Today I step on the scale and I was down 11 lbs. Only 44 more to my goal weight. I finially feeling in control of what I eat. Giving up sugar and bread isn't that hard. Working with my two sister on losing and its been so much fun.

    I am having trouble staying motivated because I have gained weight since starting. I have skipped the last two days and have been eating horrible. I need to get back on track tomorrow! It is motivating to see everyone else getting good results!

    Has anyone noticed that Natalie cheats a lot? She's the one that does the more advanced moves. I'll look to her sometimes and she's doing less than Anita!! She's a cheater.

    And I also love when Jillian almost falls down doing butt kicks. It always makes me smile.

    And when she almost loses her balance doing the final stretches, standing up.

    I just completed my 2nd day of level 3 and I've noticed that Natalie's not smiling as much as she did in level 2! haha! I like level 3.

    Just finished Day 7 on Level 1. I did give Level 2 a try after Level 1 on Sunday but don't feel ready to step up yet despite being soooooo bored of Level 1! And I hate lunges, for the record ;) No scales in the house so no idea on weightloss but feeling pretty good :) Zumba tomorrow for a "rest"!

    One thing that helped me today was to stick my ipod on in the background and turn Jillian down. Mainly because every time she says "a couple mooooore" I want to scream at her "'a couple' means TWO, not FIVE, you evil woman!" ;)

    Just finished Day 10 of Level 1. So ready to move on!

    Will measure, weigh, and take pics tomorrow officially but I've also had a static weight this whole time. Goes up or down about .6 lbs either way over the last 10 days. Hoping the measurements and pictures tell a different story.

    What do you all think of taking a rest day between Level 1 and Level 2? I'm just wondering if I should let my muscles have a day break to rejuvenate. Thoughts?

    Hey everyone,
    I have been doing pretty god with the shred but I have still missed 2 days. I am also walking/jogging at the gym and sometimes I am just too tired I think. Today I woke up and did the Shred but decided not to go to the gym because I was just not feeling it. I did level 2 today and some things are easy and some are not.
    I guess I feel lazy when I don't do my regular workout but then sometimes I am just kind of drained. Not sure if I am just being lazy or if I should really take a break. My mind has continuous battles with itself. Grrrr Same issues with food

    So I just completed Day 7, the issue I'm having though is that I only have my Zumba toning sticks to use as weights, but they don't seem to be doing much, and cant really afford to go out and buy anything heavier.
    Have you got any ideas of household items that I could use instead?
