    Miscalculated yesterday. Today D7-L1
  • L1 D5 complete.

    Can't see a big difference in myself yet although I feel I have more energy now and the workouts feel easier. My sister is doing it with me and is a lot lighter than me but in 5 days she already has amazing results so I know it is working under there somewhere just hope I start to see it soon. Day 6 is this evening so will log in again later.

    Got up this morning and did Level 1 day 5 before breakfast. I am finding it alot easier and following Natalie for most moves now apart from push ups which I still do Anita style.

    Well done everyone for sticking at it

    :smile:
  • Made a boo boo and reported yesterday as my day 5 when it was actually my sixth day which makes today D7L1. Result!!

    D4L1 completed this morning. Even though it was tough, I found I could put alot more energy in this morning. Feeling so much better than yesterday, no aches at all :o)
  • L1D2 complete! Shredded it up this morning before my kids got up. Feeling super sore from yesterday so todays workout was ALOT harder then yesterday. Everything hurts but I'm taking that as a good sign and pushing through it!
    I need to do my measurements today so I can really see the changes.

    Happy shredding everyone!

  • I feel like I'm going to get in trouble for saying this but I skipped today. I had to work from 630p Friday night and got off at noon saturday day had to be back to work at 630p and have to be here til noon tomorrow. I also have an hour drive so I decided to take my free time to sleep.
    Although even though I skipped I went into the med room last night and locked my self in and did do some jumping jacks, butt kicks, and lunges for a little while and when I got home did some push ups and sit ups. I also went into the therapy room and used the bike for 20 minutes on my break. I also do a lot of walking so Im thinking I still burnt as much calories as I usually do.
    I also skipped out on the pizza that the others ordered, and the buckets of candy in the break room.

    Nikki, don't be daft...sometimes life gets in the way of things we have planned. You made healthy food choices and you made time for exercise. There's nothing to beat yourself up about and definitely no need to feel bad.




    I agree! Sounds like you did great Nikki, life gets in the way sometimes and you still stuck with making good choices! Good job!

    I forgot to post here loast night, but I did Day 4 level 2..5# weights. Will do again today. I fight through the anterior raises with the five pounders and take 5 second break from time to time - and the plank jacks get me sometimes too..otherwise, hanging in there.

    Trying to really eat a lot of protein which helps build lean muscle mass - and less carbs. Am already seeing progress in my obliques and my shoulders.

    I hate exercise..so thanks for keeping me accountable.

    Just finished L1 D6. It's much easier now than it was, but I think I may stick with L1 thru next weekend. I don't feel like I'll be ready for L2 in 4 days. Anyone else feeling this way or am I just a wimp? Lol.
  • D8L1 done. Still kicks my butt.

    I was just more disappointed in myself since I was determined not to skip any days. Although I was pretty proud of my self this morning for skipping the carmel rolls that the kitchen put in the break room. That part was hard since I could smell them all morning and they smelled delicious. Although I was eyeing them but I decided I would have to do the shred at least three times to burn the calories off in them. It makes it a lot easier to turn down junk food when you realize what you have to do to burn it off. Alright well I'm off to go take a nap since I just finally got home.
  • L1 D5 and I lost 2lb this week :)
  • D6L1 - 11 days complete!


    uuuhhhh. today was harder than normal.. probably because i worked 14 hours yesterday and only slept for 3hrs and then worked an 8 hour shift.. good news is: i'm gonna sleep like a baby tonight. :)
  • L1D4 Done. (Technically I am supposed to be on D6 today.) Working late on Thursdays, Hubby wanted a date night Friday night, Saturday we took the 3 year old to the Pumpkin Patch, etc etc. So I haven't done this since Wednesday basically. Gameplan: Do 4 today to catch up. (I've already done 2) So if I can do two more this evening I'll be on day 6 with everybody else. I'm sure its not optimal to do so many in one day, but I want to keep up and this will help keep me going at least because I feel so guilty for skipping.

    Day 4 Lev 1 Done!!
    It WAS a bit easier but I can feel a twinge in the back of my left knee, hope it isn't going to develop into anything more because although I can't say I am 'enjoying' it yet, I do feel better afterwards and I want those results!!

    Can I ask though does it wind anyone else up that those two ladies with Jillian have that weird fixed smile on their faces throughout the workout. WHY ARE THEY SMILING?? I am definitely not smiling throughout it!! ;)



    I agree!! Jillian's ladies have big smiles like its' a piece of cake. Well maybe it's easy for them being at their level but for me it's a killer workout. It is getting easier each day so maybe we might all be smiling too when we get done with the whole workout!!

    Just finished Day 8 of Level 1...and dabbled in Level 2 to see what I have to look forward to! Those bicycle sit-ups have got much easier (while still being tough!) and I can really see the difference in my stamina.

    So I weighed and measured myself and these are the results so far, compared to last Saturday:

    Weight: -1kg (but am 200g heavier than yesterday despite doing 1100 calories of exercise yesterday!!!)

    Bust: -1cm
    Waist: -2cm
    Hips: -1cm
    Arm: - 1cm
    Thigh: -1cm

    Hope that's encouraging for the rest of you...I only have 10lbs to lose so it's not easy at this stage!



    That's awesome good for you! this is very encouraging to hear that you have seen changes in only 8 days. I can't wait for my 8th to see my progress too. Thanks for sharing!

    L1D5 - I think, I am losing track of the days already. Getting much better with the cardio and abs but it's still the push ups that are causing the trouble. Can't use my stairs as there is not quite enough room at the bottom.

    On top of 30DS I am starting C25K tomorrow (doing Mon, Wed & Fri). Can't decide whether to get up early and do it before everyone else is up, or wait til later after all the kids have gone to school... Will do 30DS after the 'run'.

    Lost another half pound and everything is looking promising for my big weigh in tomorrow. Will publish full stats then...

    L1 D5 done this morning!
    Had to keep my daughter and the dog out of the room - not easy but the last thing I need is those two witnessing me at my worst!
    I did punches and side stepping while doing the arm movements for the jumping jacks.
    It was easier but now I don't know whether that is because I didn;t do the butt kicks and jumping jacks and jump rope because of my knee, I didn't stop though and like I said I did the punches and side steps all the time.
    Feel a bit bad though like I've let myself down a bit (stupid knee!) Hope it doesn't affect my results!

  • Hi guys yesterday i did day 8 level 2 its fab!

    Yea, I did it!! L1 D6, I'm all caught up!


    It's true the workouts are getting easier but my right calf hurts after each work out!

    A thought just came to me, if I believe I can do it, I can but If I think I can't then I won't!!!

    Believe and Achieve!!!

    Hey all! I have some bad news, I have to bow out of the 30 day shred as I cannot do it. On Friday when i started I noticed that my left shin was aching, I thought maybe it was a fluke thing, I rested yesterday and was going to double up today, unfortunately today as soon as I started doing my jumping jacks my shin started throbbing. I cannot do the high impact cardio. So although I am not doing the "technical" 30 day shred I am going to continue in my own way. I adapted today by running on my elliptical for 5 minutes instead of doing the cardio and still did my strength training and abs. seemed to work good and my shin stopped throbbing. I hope no one else is suffereing from shin splints! Wish you all the absolute best!!!
