    I started a couple of days before this thread was posted, so I'm ahead of you guys buy a couple of days. Can I still be in the group? *puppy dog eyes*

    Alright I need to jump on the bandwagon here...I know I'm a day late, but I am going to attempt this again tonight. I def. need the support! I've watched it, but not actually done it. How lame is that! I'll give it a go!

    My thighs are hurting today, and my boob muscles. Pecs? They're sore too. Calves don't hurt too bad, just the thigh part.

    Day 3 complete! Went pretty good, I didn't take any little breaks, but I didn't go as low as usual in the squats because my thighs hurt so bad. I'm going to go take my measurements, I should have taken them before I started, but I just bought a new tape measure.

    Good luck all!

    How are we doing guys? I have to admit, I nearly quit in the middle of last night's work out. Although the time seemed to go much more quickly, it felt much harder. But, I did it & actually I'm not hurting as bad today as I was yesterday, so bring on day 4!! Hope you're all still with us? How are you guys doing?

    Out of interest did anyone measure them-self at day 1? I didn't & really wish I had.

    I'm on day 7 and the sore calf muscles lasted for a couple of days at the most after which they adapted! Good luck!!!
  • Day 4 for me tonight...

    I am going to be a few days behind, but am starting this today. I'd love to join in and share my ups and downs with all of you! The only thing I've wondered about with this program is, aren't you supposed to take a day off between work-outs to allow your muscles time to recover? I've always heard that in the past, so it makes me wonder if it is wise to do it EVERY day for 30 days? Has anyone ever tried it every other day? Just curious.

    Day 4 is in the books for me...when I was in the last set my 8yo daughter said, "Mom you look like you are struggling..." I was...but it is done for today!:happy:

    Just finished Day 1. I did about 3/4 of it but couldn't make it through all of the push ups, jumping jacks or lunges. Plus, I put the weights down and just went through the motions for part of it. I can't find my 3lb wts and was trying to use 5 lb wts. NOT!
    I am shaky and my heart rate is still not back to normal so I know I pushed myself. Maybe by the end of week 1, I'll be able to do it all!

    Finished day 4 of the Shred!!! It didn't hurt as bad today as it did the first couple of days. I was doing the Biggest Loser's Last Chance workout before I started this one and that one is crazy hard too! I don't know which one I sweat more during, lol.

    I did take measurements the first day I started so I will post those and then post an update maybe after the first 10 days.
    We can do this ladies, its hard but we're going to get there!!

    Received a page on my pager this morning at 5:45 and it was a "wrong number". Figured that was my not-so-subtle cue to get up and get my work out done before work! Day 2 of the Shred done! I will take my shaking body to the shower now!!

    it's so nice reading you guys updates, makes me feel better that I'm not the only one dying!! Still, I'm ready for day 5 - well, im scared, but I am going to do it!! How you all feeling now?

    Do you think you'll be moving up to level 2 soon? I wish I didn't watch level 2 the other night - i feel terrified now!!

    Also, just wondered, what weights are you guys using?

    Keep shredding!!!

    *Day 5 Complete*

    I only have 5 pounds weights, so I have to use those. I haven't watched level 2 or 3 yet, but your guys' posts have me scared for them. I was sweating a lot today, but my legs were not nearly as sore.

    FYI: I usually do my exercising at 5 A.M. Slept in til almost 7 this morning, as it's my late start at work today.

    Good luck all!
