Thanks :happy: Even before my weight loss my diet wasn't what I would consider a cholesterol buster. I ate eggs infrequently, no red meat, etc. But I was a terrible snacker (chips and such, which tend to be high in saturated fat I guess). The changes I made in my diet are: daily oatmeal for breakfast (into which I throw…

I'm joining in here awfully late, I know. I've been doing the shred for about 1.5 weeks, skipping a day here and there but mostly sticking with it. Level 1 was killing me at first, but it's getting easier all the time. The first circuit is the worst for me! The latter 2 I'm OK with (go figure). I've lost a few pounds and I…
