    Count me in. I'll get the numbers for you. Was going to start mine tomorrow anyway so this will be good.

    What numbers besides weight are we tracking?

    Most people are just going by weight on here - so I think for ease this may be a good way to go. Please feel free to track inches as you go and post weekly

    I'll do an average weight lost at the end of the challenge too so we are all working on getting that as high as possible :happy:
  • My weight loss won't be as "dramatic" as my change in measurements. So that being said... these are as of Nov 5.

    November 5, 2011

    Left Thigh: 24.02"
    Right Thigh: 24.04"
    Hips: 38.70"
    Lower Back: 38.03"
    Waist: 31.30"
    Chest: 37.09"
    Right Bicep: 12"
    Left Bicep: 12"

    Current Weight 160lbs

    I would love to be in this as well. I hope you are still accepting people. I have tried to finish the Shred before, but eventually gave up with no motivation, So hopefully having a bunch of other people doing it at the same time and experiencing the same thing will be the push I need to make it through. There will be a couple days where I do 2 workouts in one day because I have Christmas committments and I won't have time on those days to fit in even 20 minutes.

    I will add my measurements and weight when I get home after work.

    day 1:
    complete!
    I got all my weights, exercise ball (I like to use it for the flys), fan (cuz I get too hot), itunes (cuz I don't like the dvd music and I don't need to listen to Jillian everyday), and I am ready to roll for the month and hopefully I will get rid of some of my roll.:bigsmile:
    weight : 182.5
    waist: 36" :sad:

    I would love to join! I started it a few weeks back and only did 5 days. I think having people to motivate me might help me through this time!

    Should be interesting to see where we both end up!!! :) I have to admit I do more than just the Shred. Also jog 3xweek, hot yogax1 and zumba x1/week. It's a busy week. :)
  • I'm going to add you now. I did one session 3 days ago, but after two days of intense self defence training, it WAS NOT a good idea. I couldn't walk for the next two!! Feeling a little more human and less full of lactic acid today, so shall start again tomorrow. Will go and do all my measurements right now and will weigh myself again in the morning. I know it's totally not a good idea to rely on the scales because I know I build muscle really quickly.

    LET'S DO IT!! :-D

    Ok guys. This is it! For ease I will be tracking weight as this is predominantly what I've been given. If you want to track inches please do and feel free to post inches lost each week. This is something i know I'll be tracking

    Thanks to all you lovely ladies who have sent me your SW for the challenge. The spreadsheet is ready to pop everyone's details in so if you haven't done so, please do get your weights over

    Have a good first challenge day!

    Thank you so much for doing this for all of us! Happy shredding everyone. Oh and btw if anyone needs support/ideas with their diet, feel free to add me. My food diary is also open for everyone. Over the years I've become pretty good with all the nutrition stuff and love cooking and backing (with a healthy twist). :) and as it seems lately i love talking about it too! haha

    day 2, level 1 complete
    I found i had a bit of muscle fatigue from yesterday, so it was a bit of a tougher go.
    now it's time for breakfast and coffee.

    Good luck to all and I will check in tomorrow :tongue:

    Looks like I'm a little late to the party but count me in. I began the shred on Thanksgiving day, missed yesterday and today, but will pick up tomorrow and do it in the mornings from that point on.

    Don't have my measurements yet, will add later, but I'm currently at 163 lbs.

    Glad to have a group to work with!

    When you enter in your excercise for D1 L1 do you put it in as aerobic excericse???
  • I'd like to try this with you. Question, how many days per week are you doing it? I have Ripped in 30, not 30 DS, are they very different?
