OK! People!!! This is it! I just took my measurements:

Waist: 31
Hips: 42.5
Thighs: 25

Anyone who want to jump on the April Shred bandwagon, now is the time. We'll do 30 days in a row of Jillian's 30 day shred, whatever level you are comfortable with! Even if you are sore or tired, at least plug in that DVD and give it a go! It's only 20 minutes people, we can do this. Lets see how many inches we can lose in 30 day of concentrated effort!!!

Every Friday I will re-post so we can record our progress and motivate each other!
Just look for "April Shred Challenge" under Motivation and Support. Looking forward to seeing how we all do!!!

Now get out that DVD and get your *kitten* kicked!!!

    I like to exercise at night. So I will do my measurements and first workout tonight and post as soon as I can. It may be Monday before I can post it. On the weekends I only have internet on my phone, and I don't think I will be able to view MFP.

    April 1st

    Height: 5'7"
    Waist 26.25
    Hips 36.5
    Thighs 20.5
    Pouch 32.0

    The only days I might not do the shred is when I trade it for her video No More Trouble Zones. Both in one day would be way too much for me!

    I'm looking forward to starting the April Challenge tonight after work. I'm going to begrudgingly post my April 1st measurements and weight (yikes! Very hard for me to do!). I have also committed to another challenge: I will not be checking my weight or measurements the entire month of April, so unfortunately I will not be able to post my progress. I will however, post the final results of this Shred challenge/group at the end of the month.

    Current Weight: 188
    Arm: 13
    Hips: 48
    Waist: 36
    Thigh: 25

    I'm excited about doing this challenge with others and also to see what my results will be at the end of the month! I am also doing the couch to 5K program 3 days per week and Zumba once per week. My intention is to do the 30 day shred every day possible and to miss no more than 5 days total for the month. *fingers crossed* Loving the support from the members of MFP, my family and friends. I CAN DO THIS!! :D

    I am! Yesterday I made the mistake of doing 6 Week Six-Pack before doing the shred... I'm so sore today! How are you doing?

    OK I am a little confused. I thought we were supposed to post every Friday. It is the end of the day, and I see noone's post. I did shred 3 times this week and circuit trained at the gym 2 days. I lost 2 pounds this week and several inches if you add it all up. Did we want to post measurements each week? If so, I will add them. How did everyone else do?

    I have to be honest...I'm a April Shed drop out. Actually I never started. :( I did do a 5k on April 2nd, walked a couple of days on lunch, and spent an hour on the treadmill last night. I plan to incorporate more exercise into my day, even if it's a short walk.

    I feel really bad about committing to a challenge, and not following through. But now I feel like it's too late in the month to start. (Unless you think I should just start anyway, and just record these last 2 weeks.) Or maybe we can try this again in May.

    Yeah! Same here, actually. I went on vacation this weekend and missed about 5 days, but I'm going to get back into the swing of things this week. :) Let's do the last two weeks!
