    Level 3 Day 6 done!

    I almost didn't do it because I was so tired, but I kind of had to since I was like 131cal over calories today. Glad I did, because it means I only have four days left!

    [Add below]

    Thought I'd mention - while I was starting the mountain climbers in circuit 1, my left ankle started hurting, as if sprained. I thought about stopping but I just kept going. That was probably not a smart idea but I pulled through and it stopped hurting after a while.

    Phew - L1D2 done, and it was both harder and easier. The first ten minutes were hell, and then I almost enjoyed the last ten! My muscles are aching a lot more than after day 1, but I really pushed myself today and tried to do all the unmodified exercises. Push-ups are still killing me though!

    Well done!

    I am a kindred spirit when it comes to push-ups - I HATE them! But other folk have problems with other things, so it just shows how we are all different. Good luck with the rest of it.

    Completed day TWENTY-NINE today. Took a few days off because we were gone camping but I managed to bike a few miles Monday and Tuesday at the campground, so I still got some exercise in.

    day 28 done... yeeehawww!


    so far, i’ve lost:

    about seven pounds

    an inch around my bust

    an inch and half around my waist

    an inch around my belly button

    an inch around my hips/*kitten*

    & half an inch around each thigh

    Level 3 Day 7 done. Three more to go!? Really!?
    I did most moves without modification today!
    Level 1 and 2 completely without modification, and for Level 3 I did the first set of walking push-ups and the row&raise thing w/o modification and the second set with. Did the first set of rock star jumps all-out, the second set a little less impact but still got to do it. Woohoo!

    Foodwise I went WAY over today, so I felt the need to push a little with the 30DS. Topped with 15 minutes of cardio dance almost right after! :)

    L1D3 done and dusted! I could definitely tell that my stamina had improved, but my calves were still aching from yesterday so it was difficult in a different way. I'm doing everything unmodified except the push-ups, but I still need to get heavier weights.

    Thanks so much for the encouragement, maggieholmes and skinnyinnotime - regular exercise is quite a breakthrough for me, as for my whole life I've been "the unsporty one" and I've found it hard to break out of that way of thinking. I just keep reminding myself that it's only 20 minutes, and it will make me feel so much better and healthier in the long run!

    Whoo hoo! I did it! Completed day 30 of the Shred today! This is a pretty big deal for me because I am NOT one to exercise regularly and stick with it.

    The plan now is for hubby and me to do another 30 days of the shred (2 days of level 1, 2 days of level 2, 2 days of level 3 per week) and then hopefully move on to Ripped in 30.

    Thanks so much, everyone, for all your encouragement! Congrats to all who have already finished the 30 days. For those of you who still have a few days left to go, you can do it! The feeling of accomplishment when you've completed is wonderful and motivation to continue in a healthier lifestyle.

    Is the 30 day shred for general toning and shape or for weight loss or both?
