Good morning everyone,
Haven't gotten to day 2 yet - I tried the shred out on netflix and like an idiot sent it back before I bought another copy...I can't find it anywhere! I tried our Walmart, and Kmart, and that's pretty much all we have to get things like that.

Where did everyone get theirs?

I'm really down today...my new-ish job (new position) is really getting to me, we're really run thin here and there's way too much work getting piled on us all. I get really sad just walking in here!
I'm exhausted by the time I get home and all I want to do is sleep.

Any words of advice?

Have a great day all!

:bigsmile: Day 3 DOWN....and I am down 2IBS....I hate to admit it but yesterday I only did the shred, skipped out on the gym to go see STAR TREK with my BF. Had some popcorn, and cashews I had in my purse.....realy thought id go over because I am also PMS-ing hahaha. WOW. I really hope to keep going. THings are looking tighter already!! YAY!!

Good luck JUNE SHREDDERS....keep up the good work. Sorry to see you go Arienna! Good luck! I have also tried Hip hop abs and slim in 6...Gotta love beach body!!...oh and THE SHRED :bigsmile: :drinker:

Day 2 is done! I'm pretty pumped, because I actually did the advanced version of all the exercises, including the pushups!

I'm not planning on taking a rest day. Of course, if my muscles need it, I will take a break.

I was pretty psyched when I was able to do the push ups today as well!! I was only 1 away from how many the ladies do on the DVD....
as for weight most of the time I use 3 IBS however it is not enough for the chest flys so I use 5 IBS......hopefully by the end of week 2 I can use the 5IBS the whole video!!!

HA! yeah still can't do push ups

I'm exhausted by the time I get home and all I want to do is sleep.

Any words of advice?

Get up a half hour early and do it before work.

HA! yeah still can't do push ups

Yeah, I'm with you on that one!

I'm 0 lbs down. But i'm shrinking so i'll take it!!!

I've given up on the scale moving. My inches seem to be melting away regardless which I definitely prefer.

You can get it at amazon.com, but then you have to wait for it.:sad:

I know work can really drain people but try to look at the positive....You have a job. Hopefully you have a job you enjoy..at least most of the time.

I have done the shred 5 times now and it gets easier but I still don't know what I hate more Jillian or the stairs in my house. :laugh:

Thanks for the kind words!

I just do mine off youtube everyday. Here's the link I use: http://www.youtube.com/user/xbabiboopx
I believe this gal also has another Jillian Michaels video posted, so if this turns out well, I might try that one next!

That's a great idea! I can get on there from our Wii in the living room

Get up a half hour early and do it before work.

I think I'm going to try that. My hubby gets up at 4 am and I just sleep in! Might as well make use of my time better :laugh:

I've given up on the scale moving. My inches seem to be melting away regardless which I definitely prefer.

WOW! i just saw your photos! 4 lbs? Makes me want to throw my scale AWAY!

Thank you! :blushing:

My scale hurts my soul :laugh:. Definitely take photos if yours doesn't like you; it doesn't always know when your body is changing.

Day 3 done! I was pretty sore from the pushups yesterday, but I managed to do them again today. I love the pictures idea. I have some from just a few weeks ago, so I'm hoping to see the difference from them. Maybe (if we're brave enough) a bunch of us could post before and after pics after the 30 days?

Ok, Day 3 done. I think I'm going for 1 day off on Sundays.

ooo mannn i keep pushing my shred bac today!!! ok ima do it:grumble: i am sooo sore::frown:

It is 11:34 pm and i just finished day 3:bigsmile: woooohooo:drinker: it took me all day to build up for it:blushing:

Goodnite:yawn:

Done with Level-1, Day-3!!! Woo-Hoo!!! :happy:

Day three down, my biggest struggle is definately the push ups, I can't even do all of them in the modified version! I did most of the first segment this time, but was only able to do like 3 of the second! I'm going to be siked to be able to do all of them! I think that's the point I'll move onto level 2 haha

I can only do 8 and then 7 of the modified version on day 3....hopefully be better by day 10 :bigsmile:

I just joined MFP yesterday, but I saw this thread this morning and would like to join if its not too late! I havent taken my measurements, but I have my starting weight (started my new life plan on Tuesday- random day to start but i moved all weekend and was worthless on monday). I can try to find measuring tape tonight. I read all of the posts and I will try out the 30 Day Shred off of youtube as someone suggested. The past few nights I have been running 2-3 miles after work.

Ok, just got done with Day 4 and no pausing, yay!

I'm used to really intense workouts but they're normally a bit longer with some pauses between cardio sets. So cranking a full 2 minutes without stopping has been a real challenge but I'm loving it!
