November 30 Day Shredders (CLOSED GROUP)

So I've been debating with myself of when I want to weigh in and do measurements. I think the Monday weigh in's will be great to keep me on track and honest, but I also thought about maybe weighing in and doing measurement the beginning of each level, so every 10 days (weigh on the 11th day right before starting next level). But I don't know if I can go 10 days without weighing myself, that will be a challenge in of its self. I also don't know if I want to do measurements all the time, almost want them to be a surprise at the end. I don't know, just bored at work, to much time on my hands right now so my mind is running ragged. Better than eating the halloween candy though:) What are your thoughts?

Finished day 3. Still sore during pushups. Had to stop once to tell 3yo that she could not play the xylophone in bed!

Day 3 is in the bag. It looks like i am going to have to put our gtreat dane up from now on. Hard to exercise with a giant dog wanting to join in.. best of luck to all!

hahaha! My cat is always getting in my way, she's really bad when I'm doing floor exercises. My dog's pretty good about sitting off to the side watching. He usually just chews on his squeaky waiting for me to be done. But a great dane would be a bigger challenge trying to maneuver around. Just give him/her some extra play time when you're done working out.

Well I am hoping the worst is over - L1D3 went pretty well & was far less painful than D1 and D2. However, I downsized from 5lb on D1 to 3lb weights on D2 and D3 - but still can't complete all the shoulder exercises, have to put the weights down for the 2nd set. Other upper body is OK, just the shoulder presses and raises that seem to kill me!

Is anyone else HUNGRY like crazy? Trying to figure out if this is due to 30DS or because I made the mistake of a HARD run after D1. I shred in the evening, and D2 I woke up and wanted to eat the entire kitchen! Today, a bit better but I didn't do a very good job tracking + lunch out + Halloween candy bowl.

Tomorrow will try AM run, PM shred!

I'm using 3 lb weights as well. When my shoulders feel like I can't lift anymore for the second set, I do one at a time. Still doing it, but not as many times. You can always try that. Just modify when needed. As for being hungry, I was on Monday and Tuesday, but yesterday I wasn't hurngy, I had to force myself to eat dinner. We'll see how today goes though. I run in the morning and do 30DS in the evening. It seems to be working out good, I like getting a second workout in.

Oh dear (

Hope you feel better soon. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I have just finished day 2 and and going to bed exhausted !!

Take care

Just finished Day 3- it gets a little easier, but that last ab set nearly kills me! Lower back issues make me take it just a little slower. I use lighter weights as well since I have never done any weights at all- I am hoping to add a lb up to the 5 lb each week. I am shooting to get all the way through in the 30 days of November with no breaks- but today I have a cold and I am hoping it does not slow me down. Getting into shape at 55 is no easy task- glad you all are out there to motivate me!

Level 1 day 4 was completed around 5 pm yesterday. It took my all to do it i had to keep myself motivated the whole time but I made it through.

Going to go do day 3 today/right now!. I don't want to but I will.. I'm so so so sore!!

I have my ticker code but I don't know to find where to put my forum signature. I am soooo new at this.

Hey Shana you copy the code and then click signature on the community page. Then you paste it there.

Lets see if I got this right..........

Off to a good start this morning. I did my 15 minute Pilates and ran a 5K. 30DS tonight after work. I know this is a little early to be thinking about what's next, but I'm a planner. After the 30DS do all of you want to do Ripped in 30? I think that will be what I do after these 30 days.

I am game!!!!

I guess I jumped in sooner than I was ready - I put myself on the list and haven't done any of it. Found a new resolve for myself today though but not with 30 day shred. - I haven't given up - just had taken a break. Good luck to everyone!
