So I'm late for the weigh in, sorry. But I did weigh in that day. I started at 194 and went up to 195. Ugh. So discouraging. However the workouts are feeling so easy to do now and at first I wasn't able to do all of the jumping jacks and jump ropes but now I can no problem so that's good. I hope the scale starts to move.
So, I've been wondering... how hard are levels 2 and 3?! What in the world do we do in those levels? I'm scared of them...0 -
Level 2 &3 are harder.... level 2 I dont like at all. level 3 i hate all the jumping. Erica great job pushing yourself to go lower and feel the burn!0

I'm extremely late on weighing in, but my daughter has been sick. She is feeling better now though. I weighed in Friday and was at 237 which is down 3 lbs. I am happy. I however did not get to work out Saturday or Sunday. So I'm hoping to jump back in today.0

lol so true! she really does cheat!!!! but I will continue to work hard.. have you notice how she doesnt really come down much during the punching cardio routine... my legs shake at the end of that!!!0 -
Day 9 is done. I get angry every time I see that girl cheat. :explode: I wonder why they didn't edit that out. Probably just to drive people like us insane and give us something else to think about instead of how hard it is :laugh:0

Yeah! I am totally kicking my own butt more than her!! and PROUD of it, I am actually surprised that I noticed her cheating but I was watching once as Jillian was explaining how she goes SOOO deep into the squats, then walks over to the other girl, the camera moves back over to her just before Jillian talks about the other girl and she is only moving her arms!!! MY LEGS ARE KILLING ME and she is only moving her arms??? WHAT!!!! Craziness0 -
Day 9 complete... One more day at Level 1... I am scared of Level 2. Is is alot harder? I am feeling pretty good a Level 1 so hopefully I will be OK. I am excited for results day after Day 10!
Janet0 -
Im excited too thursday is our first big weigh in and measurements!!! Level 2 is just harder on my knees i think is why i hate it so much. At 25 i have the body of a VERY old woman...:laugh: Arthritis on my hips & knees, bursitis in the left knee... Im a mess! The high knees and some of the lunges just do me in, but ive done level 2 all the way through both rounds so i will this round too!0
-
Ready for Day 10!!
Tomorrow we weigh and give measurements, is that correct?
BTW watched Natalie the whole time last night while I was shredding and I have decided that "WE" are all better than her so it doesn't matter if she cheats...because you can be skinny and not healthy--- its a challege to be skinny & healthy!!! I say keep up the good work LDShredders!!! Whoo Whoo0 -
Wahooo I'm sooo excited for this to be the last day of Level 1!!!!! Scared to get on the scale tomorrow as I cheated and got on the other day and was still the same...........ugh............oh well I think I'm def seeing a difference in my double chin and my love handles.0
-
Erica- Remember to take your measurements again tomorrow. I have always lost good amounts of inchs even if i only lost a lb or 2.
Everyone remember tomorrow is our finaly weigh in for level 1!!! Be sure to post your weight and measurements!

So I have been sick for the last 4 days and am now just getting to feeling better. So that means that I will restart my 30DS starting tonight. So it looks as if my last day of the program 13th of October. I feel a lot better than I did on Saturday and Sunday! So I hope everyone is doing great on the program and keep pushing not only each other but yourself!
PS I am going to need some major motivation to do 10 days straight of each level until I am done! And I will weigh myself tomorrow and do my measurements just to keep on track with the original plans!
Thanks!

Day 10 is done!! Yay!!

Whew, LV1D10 complete!
I cannot believe I made it, I am so glad I joined this board! I am totally nervous about tomorrow but knowing that all of you will be going through it with me, help (a little) lol.
Good night all, weights and measurements at 5am!!0 -
Well level 1 day 10 finished!!! My body is killing me though. My knees are starting to bother me and my upper quads are achey........anyone know of any good tips to help with these problems? I've been taking ibprofen and I take a nice hot shower before bed to help relax my muscles but that's not cutting it. I want to be able to start level 2 off on the right foot.
On a side note, I honestly don't know how I finished all 10 days. I feel really proud of myself, and my husband for joining me all of the nights despite him having homework, studying, and having to work all day. I think this "group" has helped tremendously too because we are all going through it together. So Thanks!!0 -
Day 10 Level 1 completed! I too am very proud of myself. Some nights I had to fight myself to do it, but I feel good about myself that I have done it 10 days in a row. Looking forward to weigh in and measurement day tomorrow!
Have a good nite everyone!

Amen Janet. I DID NOT want to do it tonight, but I did. I can't wait to start level 2 tomorrow!0

about me:
Name- Stefanie
THIS IS MY ORIGINAL WEIGH-IN for a point of Reference!!
Weight: 138.0 lbs
Bust: 34.5"
Arms: L-12.2", R-12"
Upper Waist: 33.2"
Lower Waist: 35"
Hips: 37"
Thighs: L-20.5", R-21.5" <-- Must have been a typo on my initial weigh-in, my thighs are no where near 40 inches, lol
Calves: L14", R-14.2" <--Wow, typo on the initial weigh-in here as well!! OOPS!
Okay, I am up slightly from my normal weekly weigh in but I am still satisfied with the results so far! You can tell I do measurements TOO early because I measured my thighs & calves wrong initially, I can't believe no one noticed that I posted that my calves were LARGER than my thighs,lol!! I probably measured centimeters instead of inches and then switched the calves and thigh numbers. Anyway everything is fixed now!
Really nervous about Level 2!!

I initially signed up to do the Labor Day Shred with all of you. We had a houseful of guests for the holiday weekend and were enjoying racing the mini-bikes and go-karts that our friends brought with them. At about 10:00 Monday morning, while attempting to impress my teenage boys with my driving and racing skills (as if I had any!) and beat their lap time, I rolled the go-kart and broke my left humerous, requiring surgery to repair the compound fracture. I now have a rod and screw in my arm, as well as 43 staples holding it all together. The things I do to impress my family!
That officially ended my shredding for this month, BUT, I wanted to share with you all the blessings I have experienced from the 40 or so days I had been shredding prior to my accident. I never imagined that all of those squats and lunges would be so useful to me in the ways I discovered post surgery. Simply standing up after being in a seated or prone position was so much easier with my stronger legs and abs. Going to the bathroom was another area those squats paid off. My arms are stronger, and I anticipate my recovery time will be reduced because of the time I spent shredding and doing those awful V-squats
I started shredding to lose weight and change my body shape, and that DID happen. But the benefits have surprised me in many other ways, as well. I just wanted to encourage all of you to keep shredding! I hope you don't have to endure an injury to reap all of the benefits!
I hope to get back to shredding as soon as my doctor gives me the go-ahead!0
