    I dont really feel like mine have gotten smaller but they have according to the tape measure!!
    1" off each leg, 1" from my chest, 2" from my hips, cant wait to see the results after 30 days.

    D6L1 - 1 break! When will I get better at that first cardio??
    Felt good today! I'm thinking I need some heavier weights for some of the strength exercises, but not all of them...

    3#weights

    I was totally feeling like just taking a nap but got my butt into the fitness room and felt soooo much better afterwards. Overall I definitely feel like my balance is improving and my pushups are stronger.

    I believe my push-ups are getting better and I don't feel as worn out after I do them.

    D7L1 done ... still that one break :(
    Apart from the first cardio, I do feel it's getting a bit easier :)
  • sorry guys, been experiencing pain in my knee from all the jumping. I am going to take today off but I have planned a very healthy day of eating! enjoy your workouts and it will be D8L1 for me tomorrow.

    My knees have been hurting too ... I was wondering whether to move to Level 2 as I've heard it's easier on the knees and no jumping jacks! Not sure though ...

    What is the Shred and how do I get more infor? I have bad knees, but my left is especially bad - I assume from SuzieR's post it is pretty grueling on your joints - does anyone know if it is ok to modify maybe do more of one thing and less or none of another that might be to hard on your knees?

    I limited my calorie intake this week and though I retaining some serious water right now and can see my feet ankles and legs are swelled up I still lost 5 lbs this week. My official weigh in is tomorrow at WW. I am thinking about not wasting my money and just stick with the my fitness pal and exercise. I can easily get a calculator from WW and weigh in at a friends house to keep me accountable. I never go to the meetings. Anyone have success doing my fitness pal or weight watchers? Which was better for you?

    Day7-L1
    ZERO Breaks! woot!
    Was definitely still feeling the burn baby burn, but able to totally stick with it though I really wanted to break for the water bottle.

    I started this round of weight loss (post-baby) with Weight Watchers Online. I lost the majority of my pounds with them, but once I hit major plateau I kinda fizzled out of it and just let it be for awhile. I spent 3 months contemplating why I was still spending the money for tracking purposes when I wasn't in a place to put in the work for change. Right around the same time I started feeling the weight loss itch creep up again one of my friends mentioned the success she was having with MFP, so I took the leap and joined. I love it. In comparison to WW I have found MFP to much more easily social and supportive. Being able to work with the common everywhere calorie rather than "Points" is great too. Everything lists its calories, where as only some processed foods lable Point Values.
    I say if you are ready for self-accountablity and lots of social support then MFP is a great place to be.

    I didn't do the shred yesterday, I went to a friends bbq & ended up staying over.
    So today was my day 8 level 1, 0 breaks. I actually found it easier after having a rest day yesterday, I had been putting it off all day as I have a hangover & got badly sunburnt yesterday.

    I did the shred yesterday morning, but I totally forgot to post that I had done it. I guess it slipped my mind. I can't wait to move to the next level tomorrow.

    Day 9 Level 1
    Breaks 1
    V tired today - I did this after a 45 minute badminton session ....
    I can definitely see a difference in my stomach but not really anywhere else. I only measured for the first time yesterday and won't measure again til day 30 is done!
  • Day 9 Level 2!!!!
    Breaks: 0
    Felt like i needed to change it up today and I actually found circuit 1 and 2 on level two to actually be quite enjoyable! Circuit 3 is a different story....but I got through it!
