    Feeling down... I need a pick me up... I didn't shred yesterday, I just felt I needed a break... I know how important it is to get back on today or it might be too late... I have to do Level 3 day 1 tonight... I will do it!!

    Any words of encouragement would be appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Janet

    Erica I hope you are feeling better today! Done with day 3. I'm starting to get carpet burn on my elbows, looks like I need to start using a mat lol!

    Thanks! I wouldn't say I'm feeling better but I'm more used to my symptoms. I was able to do the shred twice yest so now I'm caught up. I also did zumba and boy my body is aching today! I am also getting rug burn on my fore arms/elbow I don't have a mat lol Too broke to buy one.

    So is it bug, Kristyn, and I left? Is Stefa still around? My MIL is visiting for 3 weeks so it's hard to scramble to find time but I'm going to do it. I've been doing some of the moved modified so I guess that's why I don't have knuckle burn yet. Working up my strength.

    Sorry for not updating on this post guys. I HAVE been doing it, just haven't been posting here. I hardly ever get on my computer anymore, just log in from my phone app and it's a pain in the butt to post in the forums on the phone. I have had to double up a few days but I am all caught up. I really enjoyed level 2 and the first day of level 3 kicked my butt. But now I am enjoying it! My weight is just going down soooo slowly and I'm barely losing inches, so I'm a little annoyed. But I'm nursing so I don't want to lower my calories or mess with that. Nursing is most important to me right now. I have lost quite a few inches on my butt! Which is nice because I have a big butt. I can do most things without modifying them, but some things I still do modify or else I will start out doing them the right way and then modify them halfway through. This is fun though, I've really enjoyed the challenge because it has kept me motivated to continue and not just give up. I don't know what I'm gonna do when this challenge is over though!

    GREAT JOB-- and I agree!! What are we going to do once this challenge is over?? I don't want to stop so I think we should all come-up with a new challenge.

    Level 3 half way weight in today! Shocked the heck out of me!!!! My son slept really good last night so my boobs are really full this morning, and lots of sodium yesterday and blah just woke up feeeling fat! Needless to say i weighed myself 3x to be sure this was right! Im so happy, my prepreg weight is 142 and with my first son i help on to ten lbs until my milk dried. If the same thing happend adn when i stop nursing i lose close to ten lbs again Ill be in the low 130s! Somewhere i havent been since 8th grade-freshman year!!! OMG! so happy cant wait to see everyones numbers! Also I think the only people who are still on track with me to finish are Erica, Bug, lifeisahighway and Stef. If I missed any of you I am sorry please let us know so we can all finish strong together. Last 5 days ladies!!!!!!
