Day 6 complete! I'm so happy I got it done even though I had a rough night. I'm still noticing more and more of an endurance change, plus i've lost about 0.2 of a pound, which offically brings me into the 100's! So thrilled, i'm rewarding myself with a delicious protein shake!
It all ended up okay, thankfully. luckily Chilliwack Hospital is an amazing hospital and actually does what they're suppose to! and it was nothing serious, so I was able to get some sleep and pull through and even do an extra workout today!0 -
Day 5 is done.. At the end of the workout my playlist was on 'All I do is Win, Win, Win no matter what!' Right on time!
Day 6 tmrw, bring it on!0 -
Day 7 done! And I think I'm switching to level 2 early! My "dumbells" are really light .... As in they are jars filled with water lol0

Day 7 done. I'm feeling it my legs the last few days, but that's good right?
My least favourite thing is when she says 'just a couple more' and a couple turns out to be 8 or 10.
I am determined to take some pics later today. I have my starting measurements, but I want to see what a difference this hard work makes.0 -
finished day 7. I feel it's getting harder instead of easier, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but maybe my body is just adjusting differently. I find my arms aren't getting stronger as I do this, and it's so frustrating!0

Finished L1D2 today! Yesterday, I started the challenge and walked 5 miles (including a mile of hiking) according to my fitbit. I went to bed thinking "wow, that was nothing." Waking up this morning had me in so much pain but I pushed through. I must admit that I wasn't able to use the weights the entire time through, but I felt the burn regardless. Today I hope to up my miles to 10 and attempt to do a fitness blender HIIT workout this evening.0

Hey guys - are we all using "Circuit training - General" from the cardio category to add this to our journals? I just want to make sure I'm not short-changing myself on calories burned since it seems WAY HARDER than a measly 175 calories or whatever... Maybe I'm just being a whiner
It will depend on your height and weight but I'm 5'6", 136lb, 28% BF and my HRM says I burn around 230 cals.0 -

I got my 3lb weights at Canadian Tire, and they were $3.50 each. They're super cute which makes me want to use them - they are bright orange and smooth and harmless looking. I was so surprised by how cheap weights were since I'd never bought them before! I want to go back and get some 5lb-ers.
Also congrats on moving up early! Level 1 is still kicking my butt!!0 -
Level 1 day 5 complete! I had a long hard (active) day at work today but still came home and did my workout, I know i didn't give it my all but i gave about 95% which is better then not doing it!
I'm not as sore, and I have way more energy... I'm thinking when moving on to level two if i could also do level 1. Either lv 1 then 2 back to back or at two separate times... I'm looking for fast results... nothing like pushing yourself!0 -
Level 1 - Day 1 DONE!! This is my second time doing the 30DS. I completed it about three weeks ago...this should have been a piece of cake...nope! The last exercises were killing me!! Tomorrow and the next day should be fun! ouch!

I wondering if I can skip a day..it's so beautiful in CT today, 60's, I want to walk/run for an hour or more and then I have a lot to do around the house, raking, cleaning and errands. That beats 20 minutes but if I'm not bushed, I'll do it late tonight.
My weight has stalled and I want to mix it up a bit.
Go enjoy the day! I am mixing it up today as well, and tomorrow I am doing yoga. I'll be starting the shred again on Monday.
I did, it was a good hour, walk, then jog a bit, until I was tired. I did Pilates later and will pick up shred on Monday too.0 -
Level 1 Day 8 all done. I'm finding it harder and harder. Huff, puff, grunt, moan.
But I can put my hand on my heart and say that I AM NOT phoning it in. I make those 20 minutes count.
Looking forward to moving on to L2 on Thursday morning - even though I've heard it's horrid. I might try the 'landmark' black trousers on that morning, see if the button's getting any closer to the button hole.0 -
Level 1 day 6 today ( decided i'm going straight through for faster results. At least for level 1 anyways)
So I stepped on the scale today I started at 167 and i'm 160 today! Go me!!!0 -

Level 1 Day 6 complete!
This song came on during the last part of the workout. Sooo befitting for me!
I'm not afraid
To take a stand (against this weight)
Everybody
Come take my hand
We'll walk this road together, through the storm (30DS)
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just letting you know that, you're not alone
Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road0 -
day 8 done! I'm feeling a burn again, and my abs are definitely feeling it, but i'm down another pound and feeling fantastic about that! I might even check out see how my favourite pants are doing, hopefully the fit soon since the weather is getting nice! Good job everybody!0

WOW - Go you for real!!! Good job!!!0 -
Finished Level 1 Day 6! Rewarded myself with some banana mango "ice-cream" (just the two fruits frozen, and blended together).
I'm definitely seeing the changes after not doing it for two days. Tomorrow is officially tattoo so it'll be true no-exercise day. My legs are still sore from the kettle bell class on Saturday, so it'll be nice.0 -
The penultimate day of L1. I ache, but not so much that I don't want to do it. Last day tomorrow and I'm looking forward to some different moves.
Might treat myself to some music tomorrow, now that I know what Jillian is going to say at every point (and now that I know when she says 'a couple more' sometimes that means about eight more and it gets up my nose.
Rantlet over.0 -
Congrats on making it through Level 1!0

Good job everybody!
I took the weekend off but did water aerobics and walked 5 miles saturday and hiked 7 miles on Sunday.
So tonight I will be doing L1D5 but I will be doing it with my friends because they want to try it
I'm inspiring my friends to get into swimsuit shape lol 0 -
Just finished day 9! I can breathe today! I've lost 3 pounds so far, I haven't checked my measurements, but i'll have to soon since I am doing the hunger games challenge, so hopefully i see some improvement there! My pants still don't fit so i know im not there yet!0

It happens! just pick back up tomorrow, we all have days! Don't be disgusted with yourself! You're still awesome for doing this much already!0 -
Level 1 Day 2 DONE! I did this after walking 4.39 mile in 62 minutes and spending 60 minutes on my other challenges. That last -- side lunge raise the weights to eye level -- exercise gets me every time! Eye level ends up somewhere around my shoulders! It was a good day!0

You got stuck in and did what you could. That is way beyond not trying. Hope you have more gas in your tank today.0 -
So, last day of level 1.
I have lost 2 lbs (great, don't care about this so much - last time I managed only 6 days of level 1 and I gained a bit).
More importantly, I've lost an inch off my waist which is amazing. And I can SEE the difference. I need it to work its way down to my hips and belly. Very motivated to get on to nasty L2S.
They were the only things I measured today.
I hope to catch you on the L2 thread. x0 -
I did it! Up at 5:30 am, day 7.5 of the Shred complete! Thanks to everyone for the words of encouragement regarding my non Shred workout.0
