    D5 L1 done here also

    Although, I have decided I am going to have a bit of a cheat day today. It's my team night out at work and while I am intending not to drink too much (maybe a couple of diet sodas and vodka) the only food that will be there will be buffet style and that will be my dinner.

    I will however try to log everything :)

    Happy shredding

    d5 done plus 1 mile walk in the cold November wind... at least the rain finally stopped. Although the scale is being a bit subborn, I did have to tighten the strap on my HRM about 1/2 inch :smile: I have a four hour meeting this afternoon which includes lunch... I am aiming to eat only half of what they serve and then a huge green salad for dinner.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Haha! I know....this is part of the reason I am a) having a bigger, carbier lunch than usual and b) not intending to overdo it

    I can safely say I will not be shredding at 5:30am tomorrow....definitely be an evening day tomorrow!

    Hi all

    We are all doing well so far!

    angbieb has come up with a great idea! We could have a 30DS Biggest Loser at the end - could be something great to add to your signature and would be a great motivator

    Let me know what you think

    Day 5 level 1 done, I felt I did a lot better today than all days :smile: Feeling good. I went to have lunch with my daughter today and I got sick . We had Thai food and I normally do very well with it but today for some reason it just didn't cut it . I was thinking maybe because I been watching everything I eat trying to stay away from greasy food as well anything that has lots of spicy and such , maybe that what cause it.:sick: my tummy just reject it cause it's getting use to healthy food :happy:

    Hi all

    Well - I went about 1500 over on my calories yesterday (totalled about 2,700) but it was a fantastic night!

    Not hungover so back on the diet today and looking forward to day 6 this evening. Think I might do some Zumba aswell to compensate for some of yesterday

    Planning on 2 90 min sessions at the weekend so am hoping I can at least reverse some of the damage

    Good Morning all. D6 plus a 1 mile walk complete. Didn't do as well as I hoped at the lunch meeting yesterday. Sucked down a whole pita sandwhich. But I did skip the chips and cookie :smile: . A bit tired this morning but I did 20 pushup for the first set and 13 for the second - that double what I was able to do on day 1.

    Congrats on your weight loss Ver !,
    Day 6 level 1 complete, I'm too thinking level 2 might be a little hard for me, but when I did day one level one I thought I was not going to make it to day two :smile: but somehow I got strength to do it the next day now every morning with a little laziness but i have to say I'm proud of my self for keeping it up. Nice job every one for keeping up.
    I love December but I find it a little hard going to the grocery store and seeing all this cakes, cookies and the Christmas food munchies and can't have any :explode: but if I can make all the way though with out eating all that temping food I can do it any other month with out any problem right? :flowerforyou:

    Indeed zee!

    My issue isn't the sweet treats! It's the social events in December! You can't hide from them in the media world. I think I have made progress though....I made sure I left early enough and didnt drink enough to get a hangover - all so I would be OK for the shred and Zumba tonight.

    level 1 completed today, I made it through my arm raises a lot better today. But I was exhausted through the whole workout. Feeling a little weak today. But I just ordered some vitamins in the mail so hopefully they'll help me with my energy level.

    Ok so yesterday I did Level 1 day 1 and 2....let me tell you it kicked my butt! Today I am planning to do Level 1 day 3 and 4.....wish me luck! By the way my wrist was hurting with the push ups, do you know what I can do to help with the pain or if I can substitute that part fro a different exercise??? Thanks a bunch and you girls are amazing and dedicated! Great group!

    That's awesome I can only do about 3 of the regular push ups and then have to go back to the girley one's great job!!!

    Girl I so hate those arm raises!!! I can do everything else fine but that. I think it might have to do with my bad shoulders LOL!

    Day 5 Level 1... Yay! Longer then I have yet!!!
  • Day 3 Level 1!

    Just wondering, has anyone thought about doing each level for 7 days, and then alternating levels for the remaining 9 days? Just to keep it interesting and keep our body guessing.

    I can only do the girly pushups too >.<
