    Level 1 Day 3 Done...It was much better today than first day. I took very little rest, but my strokes/jumps not as powerful as even the easier version. Hopefully I will build up to it slowly.

    Bah. I am so unmotivated today. My body is tired from the weekend and still feel soreness from level 2 shred even though I am currently on day 6. But either way, it is still kicking my butt and I hate hate hate all the plank moves. Lol. But I guess that means it's working since I hate them and my body is sore. Haha. Well, while I build up some motivation for myself, let me share with you all my measurements that I forgot to post after level 1.

    Sun 4/17
    143lbs
    Chest: 35.5
    Bust: 37.5
    Upper waist: 32
    Lower waist: 36
    Hips: 37
    Right arm: 13
    Right thigh: 22.25
    Right calf: 14

    Wed 4/27
    141 ( just weighed myself this morn and am currently 140.8 yay!)
    Chest: 35 (.5 loss)
    Bust: 37.5 (same)
    Upper waist: 31 (1in loss)
    Lower waist: 33.25 (2.75 loss!!)
    Hips: 36.5 (.5 loss)
    Right arm: 11.75 ( 1.25 loss!!)
    Right thigh: 22.25 (same)
    Right calf: 13.75 (.25 loss)

    total of 6.25in lost overall! But this also the first time I've worked out in a couple years paired with changing up my diet. Yay for healthy lifestyle changes!

    Okay that did it. Off to let Jillian kick my *kitten* for day 6 of level 2!

    You will! Each day you'll find you can do more that the day before. Just keep pushing yourself and you'll be amazed at how quickly you improve!

    I didn't work out yesterday :(
    I have hives and it is stressing me out big time!!! I got them this time last year and it spread all over my body. So itchy and painfull. Lasted over a month. So now it's back and started on my wrist under a band I wore and is now on one of my ears and the last few days on my neck. I am trying to figure out what it's from since the doctor isnt much help. I have read it can be caused from sweat, stress, pollen, pet dander ect... since it could be ANY of the above (i am sweating all the time from my workouts, spring is here and there is pollen everywhere, the farms in my area are spraying chemicals ect) I decided to eliminate some options. since I didnt sweat at all yesterday because i didn't work out, and its spreading up my arm, I think I can eliminate that.
    So I will continue today where I left off.
    Sorry ladies :)

    ItsTerriC - Your hubby sounds great!

    Ugh...so sorry! That can be miserable. I hope that you get better soon!

    I like this level better than Level 1. I think the cardio is easier on my legs, so I can keep up better. The plank work is so hard I may just have to come back to it and integrate it in to Level 3. Anything that is that difficult simply HAS to be doing some good.

    So I was about to post the really upsetting news that I am on day 7 today of the 30DS and have lost NO weight.

    Instead of sulking in my inability to see results on the scale, I decided to do my measurements! HOLY COW!

    Weight- Same (182.8)
    Waist- Down 0.25"
    Hips- Down 1.75"
    Arms- Down 0.50"
    Thighs- Down 0.50"
    Under bra- Down 1.75" (no wonder my 38's fit like crazy... I went from 37 to 35.25)
    Breasts- Down 1.25" (again... no wonder my DD doesn't fit the same)

    I ALSO fit into a size 12 the other day dress shopping... a fitted 12. A month ago I was bulging out of my 16 jeans!

    EEKKK!!! HAPPINESS!

    L1 D8 finished. It was awesome. I haven't worked out since Thursday. Looking forward to the next level...I'm not even worried about the planks that everyone is talking about. I will be happy to have the challenge.

    Level 2 - Day 7 - I did it! Stayed up way too late last night and really didn't want to get up and do this. I did it, and actually gave it my all. I just can't "phone it in". Once I get started, I go hard! I just hope I see some progress when I weigh/measure in a few days. What if my version of "going hard" really isn't hard at all? Scary thought!:noway:

    :( I didn't get up and do day 6 level 2 this morning! I did my 5 mile walk last night and then stayed up too late trying to watch The Voice. 5:30 came along this morning and I just couldn't get up. So there will be no exercise today since hubby wants to go to the movies tonight. UGH!!!
    Other than all that, it will be a good day!

    Still can't do military presses without having to drop my foot (I'd fall over). Can't seem to find the coordination to double jump, either (if my legs are jumping once then my arms only do one loop - it's like asking me to rub my tummy and pat my head, man!).

    Can do last strength move for 45 seconds before falling (but I get back up!).
