    Day 28 done! 2 More days guys :bigsmile: I am quite ready to finish now. lol. I can't believe I'll be finished on Saturday and then starting from scratch with Ripped in 30 on Monday. Am I mad? He he. No but seriously, today I felt stronger than I have since the first day of Level 3. I love this level because you can feel the intense focus on your abs and arms with all the plank moves. Still despise the lunge jumps in Circuit 2 and of course, Rock stars in Cir 3. They are evil!

    I was hugely disappointed today when I weighed in and hadn't lost any weight this week, but the more I think about it, the more I realise this level is much more focused on toning and less on the cardio that Level 2 was all about. I still end up sweating & red, but it's not to the panting, dripping extent that Level 2 ends with. They are very different, but I think Level 2 is more about burning fat and Level 3 is now toning. I am excited about checking my cm's because my clothes definitely feel looser.



    Yeeaahhhh!!! Gr8 for you!!! Hope you will be sticking around after you finished! :drinker:

    :happy: L3D3 done! My legs are killing me....I just walked up the stairs at work and that felt like a workout in itself after all this squats we do!! Oh and I weighed in at 175 this morning! Lost 2lbs! Haven't been at that weight since last year when I started trying to lose weight and then gave up on it! Gonna keep going this time and keep it off!!

    L2D1 19 to go. Bloody hell, that was hard! After thinking L1 was becoming too easy and I could do with a change along comes L2 and properly kicks my *kitten*. Seriously, by the end I could barely see the stop button on the remote for the sweat streaming into my eyes (man, that stung!). My limbs have completely turned to jelly and are still trembling. Here's hoping I have the strength to workout tomorrow.

    (Good luck everyone)

    Level 3 Day 9 done! I have 1 more day guys!!!! I can't believe it. My body is starting to seriously protest though, so I think I need that day of rest on Sunday. I did feel much stronger today - finally.

    Everyone is doing AMAZINGLY!!! Yay us!!!

    On a really positive note, I met up with a bunch of friends I haven't seen in about 5 weeks and they said they couldn't believe how much weight I'd lost :bigsmile: It felt incredible! Thank you 30DS!!!

    Day 30 done! I can't actually believe it. lol. I am super proud of myself for doing it. I don't think my husband thought I would when I asked him to buy it for me as a present. He he.

    Should I post results now, or wait until everyone finishes?

    Keep shredding peeps!

    Ok :laugh: Well here they are (I really don't understand the whole posting pictures thing, so I'll load before and afters on my profile - for a little bit - because well, they're still rather embarrassing as I'm not exactly where I want to be yet, even though I have made good progress. I will try and take them tomorrow and post soon:

    30 Day Shred - Round 1 (reached Day 24 but took measurements on Day 20):

    Starting Weight: 64.4 kgs / 141.8 pounds (I'm converting from kgs here)
    Ending Weight: 63.1 kgs / 138.8 pounds (-1.3 kgs / -2.5 pounds)
    Total inches lost: 6.5 inches / 16.5 cm

    30 Day Shred - Round 2 (full 30 days);

    Starting Weight: 63 kgs / 138.6 pounds
    Ending Weight (don't own a scale, so last weigh in day was Day 8 of Level 3): 60.3 kgs / 132.66 (-2.7 kgs / 5.94 pounds)
    Total inches lost: 10.4 inches / 26.5 cm

    Total loss:

    3 kgs / 6.6 pounds
    16.9 inches / 43 cm

    Individual measurements (I've actually taken right arm, left arm, right thigh, left thigh, but instead of posting all of them, I've taken the largest of the two as my final measurements as there are oddly 0.5 cm variances between the two. lol)

    Measurement before / measurement after:-

    Waist: before 84.5 cm / after 74 cm
    Hips: 96 cm / 88.5 cm
    Arms: 31 cm / 29 cm
    Bust: 99 cm / 89 cm
    Tummy: 93 cm / 87.5 cm
    Bum: 100 cm / 97.5 cm

    Have everyone sorry I forgot to post yesterday! L3D4 done and will be doing D5 today! After today only 5 more days till I'm done!!

    I signed up for a C25k group and we started yesterday! We meet 2x a week so I have to fit in a 3rd day on my own! Day 1 was great and felt good to get some extra exercise in! I think I will need to get some new workout pants since mine were starting to fall off my rear while I was running! :laugh:

    Sam: way to go! You rock! And great results!! :happy:
