    Where do you go to put the green writing that you have. The SW and CW. I see a lot of people have them but I only have the ticker, not sure where to go for it. Thanks!

    I have no time to go to the gym. That's why I decided to try this 30DS because if I can't fit in 22 minutes I'd be seriously pathetic. So I am just calorie counting and doing the 30DS. I have to wake up at about 5:30 to do it, get the kids ready for school and go to work. And I am ignoring ashbergums comment for now, about the insanity starting over again when I go up the next level. :cry:

    If it didn't get harder it wouldn't do what it's meant to do! :) The first 3 days of each level are the hardest, but you can do it!! It's so worth it!!

    I know. Just picking. I woke up this a.m. to do day 3 level 1 and it wasn't as hard today as it was to do it yesterday. However, I still suck at pushups.

    Also, when I put in 22 minutes of circuit traning, general it says 261 cals burned. Is that about right? So far I haven't been eating my extra calories burned bur I just wanted to check. Thanks ladies.

    If its ok with with everyone I'd like to join in with y'all. This is actually my day D8L1 but I convinced my husband to do this with me and it's his D3L1 so I'm giving myself a couple extra days at Level 1 (which is ok cause I still can't do it all without modifying alot)

    Day 7 of Level 1 Done! Tough to fit it in today but did it while dinner was in the oven! Definitely getting easier. May consider doing Level 2 tomorrow just for a change. I did this program several years ago and remember that I thought Level 2 was harder than Level 3. But, if I feel like it tomorrow I may try Level 2 then go back to Level 1 for a kind of break then see how I feel the next day. Just a little variety.

    Tomorrow I will have been on MFP for one week and I will weigh myself. I'm not expecting to loose much, not because I haven't been careful with eating but because I have been exercising way more than usual and therefore I think some of my fat has turned into muscle. Hopefully I will be able to see difference in clothing soon to keep me motivated.

    Good luck to all and I don't see any reason that late comers can't join, but it's not my thread.

    Just finished Level 2 Day 1 which means I have completed 8 days of the 30 Day Shred. I know most people do 10 days at a level before moving on but I did this program several years ago and I remember Level 2 was harder for me than Level 3 so I wanted to do Level 2 early and if I feel like dropping back to Level 1 tomorrow I will and if not I'll plan to do 7 days of Level 2, 7 days of Level 3 and then the remaining 7 days I'll rotate between levels, just for variety sake.

    Level 2 was as I remember, very hard...but I did it! Anita is my friend!

    Looking for more motivation to keep going. Also doing Turbo Jam so I normally take the weekend off or do a lite jog.

    Day 2 of l1. I'm feeling more confident about being able to move onto level two in 8 days. Although i woke up with sore legs, i was a bit concerned about working the same group two days in a row but i powered through. Anyone out there resting inbetween days?

    L1D6 completed and today i managed to get through the dreaded side lunge with arm raise without skipping any. still struggled on the second round. the legs are fine, it's the arm raises that are challenging. i have rubbish upper body strength!

    on the positive side, i did my regular yoga class yesterday and powered through the pushups, so something's working!

    good luck y'all today, from sunny oz!

    The side lunge arm raise is what's still killing me too. I did L1D5 this morning. The first two days my body killed me all day all night after. Now the past 3 days, my body doesn't hurt afterwards, but during the video some parts are still hard for me. I was contemplating moving to level 2 but I really think I am going to stick to 10 days on each level.

    Woohoo! Everyone is doing amazing!!!!


    I just finished L1Day7 and I think it might be time to move on! But I really wanted to do each level 10 days but i dont want it to get to easy for me so maybe if I can get the jumping rope thing down tomorrow I will move to level 2 on Weds. I started using my 5lb weights foreverything but the first strenth training with the squats so I'll try to use them for that tomorrow too. Good Luck everyone!

    L1D7 is OVER. three more days and i'm on L2. i'm going to skip sat, sun and mon due to my charity bike ride on sunday (100 kms from Sydney to Wollongong, if anyone knows the area! i've raised almost $1100 for MS, which my company matches, so actually it's $2200 - felling pretty good about that!).

    so, i'll do L1D10 on tues, and start L2 on wed next week. it looks HARD from the preview shots. eek! i'm a bit worried my hand weights are too heavy!

    have a great day everyone!

    Well...I am finally getting back into this...getting ready to do Shred wil be L1D6 for me...I think! Ugh...I need to complete this badly!I think I am going to skip weigh ins until after I complete shred.....I gained 0.6 lbs last week and was not happy,...but it was probably water retention from sore muscles...I hope lol

    Level 1 Day 6 done. I am not sore anymore after I do the work out. But during the workout, I am still huffing and puffing away at it. I viewed ahead to see what Level 2 was like - Eeek.

    Agree with you on that one! L1D11 ( I'm waiting for my husband to catch up to move on) but I have noticed I can follow Natalie on some of the stuff now! And I vary the weights... 3 lbs for the squat and presses, 5 for the shoulder pulls and 8 for the butterfly presses... Weird how some muscles are stronger huh?
