    Hi ladies,

    Good work with the shredding. I am on L1D8 and since I started the 30DS I have felt SO tired, has anyone else found this?

    Day 4 done. The hardest part for me is still the first circuit of Cardio! Hate it!. But everything else is getting easier. Not as sore s I thought I would be this morning, though.

    I totally agree!!! Good job!!!

    Day 7 for me Level 2 today! I made it all the way thorough the plank twists today yay! I need to get through the what are they called? lunge thrusts? Plank thrusts? God those things suck! I hope I get all the way through them 1 day and when I do I will move to level 3.

    I am getting nervous for weigh in since a lot of you have gained. I am more interested in the inches anyway so I will wait till Friday.

    Happy to say though that today I have gotten into my pre pregnancy size 3 jeans!!! I little tight lol:tongue: but still in them!

    Let's all keep up the good work!

    P.S. I pushed through my back pain from yesterday and now it's gone too.

    I feel really bad. I joined this challenge in the hopes that I would be able to do it and stick to it, but of course I couldnt. I have not done it since day 1.

    I found at Friday(4/1) evening that my 21 year old cousin lost his 3 year battle with cancer. So along with dealing with that and getting food poisoning I have not exercised. I am hopefully gonna start back up today or tomorrow.

    With the birth of my first neice today, I feel very inspired. So good luck to all of you!

    Did I mention I hate jumping jacks!? :grumble: Tried to finish L1D4 last night but after the cardio I couldn't do anymore due to my back pain. Still not sure what the deal is but am feeling better today so wil try again tonight. I am extremely determined to reach my goals!!!
    Have fun in all you do!!

    finished day 5! I despise jump rope. Despise it. But I do notice that the last circuit of cardio I can do everything much better. Thanks to all of you I am sticking to this. I really hope for great results. Not only for me, but to show my sister and get her to do it as well! Good job everyone!

    Sorry I have been a little lax in posting, but I have been shredding.

    Today was the first day I managed to complete all the jumping jacks and I made a strong finish on the last round of cardio with out stopping.

    Still absolutly hopeless at sit ups......

    Day 5 done- Stopped 6 times during it. I can't wait til I can do the whole workout without stopping. I am almost there I believe. I usually stop 3-5 reps before they do and I try my best to keep going.

    Good job ladies!

    I weigh in tomorrow at my diet class that goes from wed to wed. So I will post my results tomorrow

    Well day 5 is done! Yahoo! Good job everyone...we can do it! Kristin and I weigh in tomorrow so I hope we both see a loss. Will post results tomorrow. OMG my knees are killing me. It must be age because the hurt like a hell. I'm telling myself that they just don't like all this work and they will get over it. Aleeve here I come! Still only able to do about 15 pushups each time and I did stop a couple of times during the cardio portions but I do feel that I am a little bit stronger. I talked to a coworker today and she said that level 3 was a ***** to do so be prepared. She saw some really good toning and definition after she completed the 30 days. She looks great since she lost 55lbs over a year ago. I hope to be in her shoes 1 lb at a time.... Doing cardio in the am so see ya tomorrow.

    I didn't get to shred today :-( I am on level three and it does require more strength but believe me when I say the first two levels prepare you for level three! When I first watched it I thought I would never be able to do it and now its my favorite level! Don't get discourage or intimidated we can all get through it!

    Day 5 done! I also did Level 1 of The Biggest Loser Weightloss Yoga & the beginner 10 minute Kickbox Bootcamp thing. I highly recommend the yoga if you're looking for additional workouts to the shred :)

    Awesome job everyone!!!

    Would anyone mind if I join you all? I just got the Shred and started Day 1 yesterday (April 4), so I just missed the first 3 days. And of course, I'll be continuing for a few days into May. But I love it so far (one day in, ha!). Off to start Day 2...

    i'm doing it every other day (ride a bike on "off" days). i can't even beleive i'm doing better on the cardio & abs bits than on the stuff that requires upper arm strength. damn push-ups. but i'm stcking with it - just at my own pace.

    did it today and finished pretty strong for level 1. hopefully after my off-day i can do it for 2 days in a row which would be an achievement for me :)

    Finished day 5! It was tough to get motivated today because I was really tired. I'm glad I made myself just get up and do it. I've been doing so well, I didn't want to give in to my fatigue. I felt a lot better after I did it. I even got on my elliptical machine for 10 mins. afterward! Keep up the good work guys! We can do this!

    OK guys day 5 done, but not easily....my knees are killing me I cant put any weight on my feet without feeling like my knees are buckling and ripping apart! I am disappointed because I had just got to the point where I was actually enjoying the workout and the progress:cry: I just added walking 1 1/4 mile to my day yesterday (can do it in 15 mins) Do ya'll think it may have to do with the walking instead of the Shred? The Shred has not bothered my knees any till last night. Thanks for any input! I just took some advil- but if anyone has any advice what to do to help the kness I would appreciate that too!

    L1D4 down! i went out and bought 3 lb weights but i still couldnt do all the side lunges with them. hopefully i get stronger soon! I almost didn't do the 30DS today because it's biggest loser tuesday and i go to the gym for two hours to watch it. i only did because of this thread! (okay, and my dress)

    So do you think we're supposed to be taking days off to recover? or is supposed to be the 30 days straight through?
