What other challenge are you doing? My husband just got home from work a little bit ago. We are gonna cook dinner soon and I will do the shred after the baby goes down around 7pm. Sore but excited! I think I needed a group like this for support to stick with it! I need to lose this muffin top!

Kristyn - good idea about the doubles. I have a feeling that Vegas might derail me. Only going to be there for the weekend and have never been there before so there will be TONS to see. It is going to be a girls weekend so I can't wait! I think I will give the doubles a shot. I still have to take measurements but my starting weight as of this morning was 151. I will post measurement, hopefully tomorrow and take pix.
It will be great getting to know all of you!
Got day 2 in when I got home from work this evening. I am starting to love this workout!

Anyone know how to log it in your exercises?0

Circuit training general is the closest to my HRM0

Just finished day 2. I didn't have weights yesterday, today my husband got me five pound ones. I was ok until the arm raises towards the end. For some reason I had the hardest time and after about four times I could hardly raise my arms with those stupid weights at all (forget about getting to eye level). :sad:0

Just want to say Great Job to everyone!
My name us Jessica I am Arbonne Consultant so I work from home while taking care of my 2 year old daughter. I plan to set the alarm for 6:00am for the next 30 days... I am finding If I don't do it before she wakes up I have a second chance during her nap. I am going to be honest and let you all know I have been extremely exhausted the last 4 days. Unusually exhausted! Although I have committed to this challenge and I will be accountable sorry for not being timely. Tomorrow will be my first day of the shred but I plan on doing (2) daily doubles to catch up
Measurements will be posted in the morning along with CW.& GW0 -

Put it as circuit training. It's as close to my HRM as you can get.0 -
How does everyone feel today? I'm a little sore (mostly legs). Also, anyone who can't do the regular push ups? I can do around 3 total then switch to modified.
I can't do any regular push ups
Not yet at least0 -
going to be doing D3 a few hrs later than normal during the week days
my youngest went back to school today, and I've gotta go do the food shopping as well,
had a sneaky measure this morning, when I got up, and fingers crossed, it looks like I've lost bout 2.5-3 inches all over, but will see wait and see wot day 11 says0 -
Hey guys! Today was my L1D1. It was ... wow. I cried for a bit in the last abs .. And Im 99,9% sure that tomorrow i'll barely walk I'll do my best to do day 2. I've decided to do it 6 times per week. I'll still do the 30s.
My goal is to feel better about myself. I've always been chubby .. I want the body that I've always dreamed of. And Im pretty close. Ive lost a lot of weight in the passed 1 year.
+ right now im not feeling so well, and I plan on turning the bad feelings into kick *kitten* body. There is always a big plus in depressions. You just have to find it
About me - Im from Bulgaria, my name is Valeia , im 21 years old and a student. Don't have kids, but in a relationship.
My current weight is 77kilos whiich in lbl isss... (goes to google to search for calculator) 169.4lbs O_O
My weight goal is 70kilos, but when I get there I might fight for 67. We'll see. The main goal as I said is to feel good.
Im 5.7" (I think this must be in feet) or with other words - 1,73cm tall.
UUUM.. measurements ..
Waist - 71 cm = 27.9527 "
Arm - 33 cm = 12.9921 "
One leg - 62 cm = 24.4094 "
hip - 108 cm = 42.5196 "
My problem area is my hips. And arms. I kind of like my tummy, but I can look better. I've seen a lot of before and after pictures of 30day shred, and most of the people lost a bunch of inches in their waist. We'll see what we'll happen with me. I'll do a before picture today, and in the end of the 30ds I'll show them to you.
Sorry for the long post :S Wish you all a happy day/evening and lets get shreded! Don't give up! And good luck!0 -
just finished today's.
and am happy to say that when doing the press-ups this time on the first round I did 10, then had to do the modified ones, then on second time round managed to do 4 full press-ups, and the rest modified,0 -
:grumble: CONFESSION TIME :grumble:
I was posting on here yesterday with the best intentions on going home and doing the shred. BUT after work we had a going away party for someone, had a couple beers....... grabbed McDonald's on my way home...... when I got home I laid down with my little guy and fell asleep with him... :sad:
BUT BUT BUT... before you all yell at me... I am jumping back on the wagon. I woke up early this morning and did Day 2 on the shred and then I have 3 hours of volleyball tonight and IF I can move afterwords I will do Day 3... so I am not letting a few hours of naughtiness keep me down, like it usually does. :noway:0 -
I did day one yesterday!!! IT KICKED MY BUTT!!! :laugh: But I am not going to give up... I will be doing day 2 tonight...wish me luck...Also, do I need to eat back all my calories? I had 600 left over yesterday because I didn't eat all I had worked off...0

I started a day after you all because I was out of town, but I am in! Unfortunately I didn't get to do a measurement (I guess I could do it 3 days late?) but I still need to go get a tape to do the measurements.
For the first week I am just going to be doing the 30 day shred, but after that, has anyone found it nice to run as well? I am pretty active -- play ultimate frisbee a few times a week, but I could definitely push it up a notch to lose the 15 lbs that I want. Any suggestions?0 -
Feeling way more sore today after D2L1. It burned a lot in my arms to pick up my infant 22lb son! But I love feeling the burn!0

I am a day late so I have no clue how I will feel tomorrow after day 2 LOL...I know my legs are feeling it this morning...0 -
Going to be doing D3L1 when I get home from work tonight. I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and let me just tell you that all I can say is *ouch*. My legs are sooo sore! Gotta love that from only doing a 27 minute workout!! Hope you all have a great day. Good luck!

Yes my legs burn sooo badly too!! The baby woke up at 2am and I sprung out of bed not thinking about how sore I would be and ouchie!
Question, how many minutes do you log in the circuit training into MFP? I don't have a HRM yet.(I want one soo badly) I wasn't sure if it was more accurate to do 20, or a little more? Thanks!0 -

I am so ready for day 4... on every round i have done it, day 2 & 3 are the WORST! Come day 4 & 5, MUCH easier!

:glasses: :glasses: Started Day 1 yesterday (Level 1)... Can't believe how sore I am!! Can't wait do do Day 2 when I get home!!0

To get caught up on a few peoples questions...
I dont do the cool down but the warm up and actual work out is about 25 min for each level on my HRM
I too do modified push ups. Round 1 I had just had a csection and could barely do 6 modified, not I am happy to announce after 2 full rounds of the shred I can do about 7 real push ups, however I only do real ones on the first set, modified on the 2nd.
Angela- Slacker! You better double up to get caught up! However, falling asleep snuggling your son is a pretty good excuse to me since I have 2 sons I know how it goes 
Heather- You are suppost to eat back your exercise calories. That being said I would only eat them all back if you are using a HRM. Circuit trainging is really close to what my HRM says, but as for other exercise on here, bike,walk, run, ect it WAY over estimates. For instance, standing 1 hour- 400 calories... so i say if you dont have a HRM eat like half of them back. Just my opinion though :happy:
Great job everyone!!!! :flowerforyou: We are almost half way though level 1! And after about 4 days level 1 gets... i wont say easy... but definitly better!!! Dont be alarmed if you have weighed yourself and you see that you have gained a few lbs. Sore muscles retain water to heal, or so I head. And that has been the pattern for me so far during all 3 times. I always gain a lb or 2 the first week then by day 10 im down quite a bit!!!
Thanks for listening to me ramble! Anyone who hasnt got there weight and measurements and info about yourself in please do!
Happy Shredding!!! :drinker:0
