Morning Ladies!! I skipped working out yesterday, my knee just needed an extra rest. Hopefully today I can get back into the swing of things.

Anyone incorporating any other DVD's into the shred? I'm getting kind of bored with it.

Morning girls! abetterme - My boys have had coughs and runny noses for a week. My oldest I think is at the end of it and I'm pretty sure it's just allergies here but I absolutely hate when they're sick. So I'm feeling pretty sore from yesterdays workout. I kind of like the shred but I get bored with it. Plus it's a lot of…

Hi everyone! Last week: 139 This week: 137 (woo hoo 2lbs) Workouts: 4 days at level 1, 1 day of level 2 Weight goal for this week: 135 Month weight goal: 130 Workout goal for this week: 5 days of level 2 (but I might change it up with some kickboxing or something) I ate pretty well, but there were some things that I…

I'm not exactly sure. At the end of level 2 she says "see you tomorrow". I have another group of friends who are also doing it and they don't know either. I think it's really just listen to what your body says. If you can't do it everyday, then I don't see any harm in resting. I did it for 4 days in a row and took saturday…

Does anyone know of any good sites that have low cal or low fat recipes? I used to be a member of WW and theirs was ok. I know about cooking light but some of their recipes aren't really something my fam would eat. I just want regular meals, nothing fancy. :laugh:

Morning girls! Jules - That's a great attitude to have! I know how you feel. I had lost about 6 lbs (I had also caught some kind of bug and it made me lose a little more) but I gained it all back and now I've vowed to lose it again. Ugghh just disappointing when that happens. Beth - great job!!! I had a couple beers last…

I think if you just take it slow and don't try to push it, you'll be fine. My knee kills me on them too.

Ok, I didn't think it was too bad. In all honesty! But the skater things were pretty hard and I had to modify those. There was another thing like mountain climbers (I can't remember what jillian calls them) and I had to modify those too because I have knee trouble and that put a lot of pressure on my knee. I did everything…

I gave in and did level 2 today. Wow was it a workout! But I like it better than level 1. I was getting bored and didn't feel I was getting as much out of it. I know I burned some calories with it. Phew!

losingit4good - that's great about your son! Sometimes it takes a parent stepping in to make other people see what's really the right thing. Off to do my pre game workout so I can have a few extra calories for all the food we're fixing. :wink:

Off to do my pre game workout. :wink:

That same thing happened to me!!! But then day 3 and 4(today) are way better. I think it's just our bodies saying "hey what the heck is going on here". I think it gets better and then once we get to the not sore hardly at all point, is when I plan on switching to Level 2. I fast forwarded through level 2 and 3 today just…

Good idea on the working out Sunday morning! I might just have to do that. I planned on taking the weekend off but why not. :)

So how is everyone doing since it's Friday?? I feel like I have a ton more endurance through Level 1 now. That makes me happy! I was SUPER sore yesterday before I did it again. But this morning I feel absolutely great! I hope this continues.

Good morning everyone! I seriously need to hide the scale. I'm an obsessive weigher. Yes I admit it. :happy: I just can't do the whole once a week thing. More like once a day. I know it's ridiculous but I can't help it. I was disappointed yesterday after working by behind off with workouts but this morning, I'm actually…

I have the same problem but I think if I'm within a good range on all of the other things, the protein can't hurt me.

It's a DVD by Jillian Michaels. Just search for it on amazon and it give a pretty good description.

I only modify the push ups too. My core just isn't strong enough to handle the unmodified. I don't see anything wrong with it though. :wink: I can still feel what the push ups are doing. I actually made it all the way through the 2 sets today. Phew!!!

Whoever asked about constipation...try Gerber's pear juice. It works wonders!!!! I used to work for a ped. and this is what we would tell people to use. Babies like the taste better than prune. You don't need much either.

Hi girls! Mind if I join ya? My name is Sara and I'm a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful boys, ages 3 and 1. Yes they keep me very busy. :) So I just need some support and motivation. This has always been my lowest point when it came to diet and exercising. Then I found this site and it just looks too good to be true. I've…

Hi! I posted on the other thread too but thought I'd post here too. I'm totally up for the challenge! Working on Level 1 for the last 2 days. Hoping to go for Level 2 maybe next Wednesday. I need some motivation!

Hi I'm new here! Mind if I join in?? I've been doing the Shred Level 1 yesterday and today. I'm all up for a goal! I totally need the motivation (that's my weakest area). My arms are killing me today and my thighs but I'm going to stick it out and do it again tomorrow and Friday. I'll take Sat. and Sun. off. I might try…
