    Best Buy was out of copies. Can I do the Shred-it with weights, or is it totally different?

    Did my first day of it tonight! I tried it once before over the summer and made it through 10 days of level 1. I still struggled so much with the push ups!

    There's also one point during the workout where Jillian says something along the lines of, "You're always told that you can't do it. People say to just take the stairs. That is a false sense of lethargy." And I'm always just like WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT? YOU'RE JUST SAYING WORDS.

    Day 3 done, and I had a more difficult time with it than yesterday. So sore.

    hahaha. I hate her mouth and the words that come out of it. So I turned the sounds off and played some music that pumps me up. It made it a lot better for me.

    I do that too. I listen to a CD instead of her.

    Yeah. I got a new iPod Touch for XMas. I think I'm going to set up a Shred playlist tomorrow. I'll have to pop over to the playlist thread for inspiration. Just got home from b-day party and have to shred before I turn in. I'm under cals still (thank goodness) but I feel bloated and icky from ice cream cake. I have to say I don't think that Carvel's ice cream is worth the calories.

    Yeah, I watched it for the first time today, and heard her say that too. I was confused. I think she meant to say "just take the elevator." Taking the stairs is hard.

    My knee is absolutely throbbing tonight. I know you're not supposed to take any breaks, but I think I'm going to have to just give myself some abs work and take the night off from Shred. I did a 5 hour retail job shift today, plus some other cardio, so at least I haven't been totally lazy. I just fear if I push, I'll be out more than one day.

    . I think she meant to say "just take the elevator." Taking the stairs is hard.

    I think she meant that people who tell you "take the stairs, it'll make you fit" are spreading a false message of lethargy. Yeah, it's harder than taking the elevator, but isn't close to being enough to produce the kind of results she aims for,

    I'm afraid I have to spread my own message of lethargy. Everything I've got hurts, so I'm taking a day off.

    Felt better after lunch and managed to find the motivation to push through, so that's day 4 out of the way.

    Hi, Yemaya, I was beginning to think everyone but me had dropped out. I've been doing the Leslie Sansone 2 mile "Start Walking" video on Exercise TV every day along with the Shred. Thinking about Zumba for later. The city holds classes a couple of evenings a week for a buck a pop.

    Day 5 is done.

    Still hanging in there! I did the Zumba Wii game and really liked it. I have to do day 4 yet, but I promise to do it before bed. I went lighter on the cardio today because I was so sore this morning.

    Nice job!

    I'm getting bored with Level 1, but I'm not *quite* ready for 2. I picked up a copy of Shredded with Weights at the grocery store today. I may mix it up a bit.

    I got bored with level one after about a week and a half and bumped up to level two. I sometimes go back and forth between level 1 and 2. After doing level 2 for a week it was easier to do level 1 and I am more able to do the "non-modified" versions of the exercises. :happy: I am on day 17 and have lost 12 pounds since I started. It is worth it!!! You are worth it!! Stick with it :smile:
