You can do it! Glad to hear your feeling better!! GET SHREDDING!!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!

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!

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 -

Finished D1L2 and it was rough! Though I have done it before, but not part of doing the workouts consecutively. I am sweating like a pig, but oh well that's my body getting stronger, right??
Just wanted to share a pic so I can look back and see today's date and see how hard I worked on day1 of level 2. My husband is included in the pic because he has done every single shred with with me thus far.

Finish D1L2 too... sweating like a pig too! It was definitely a step up from Level 1.
Completion of Day 11 of 30... getting there slowly!
Good luck to everyone!
