Shall we start our own? I want to lose a stone in the next 8 weeks how does that sound?

waist, wish mine looked same!

I am a 5 right now, but working on it :)

yeah if a girl says it to me it doesn't annoy me, although it's not something I'd probably ever say

no, you're not the only person who thinks that

rock chick!

lol, I don't even dare to dream of the things listed here, to meet a guy who is honest and not into playing games would be a start :)

I think most people on here would say 1100 calories isn't enough, and I wouldn't have thought that would help in changing your eating habits, meaning that you will be hungry the whole time you're dieting, and the second you stop you might eat even more and end up weighing more than when you started. I think the lowest…

well that's it I've done day 30 and it's all over with.

Well enjoy the good weather, we have rain rain and more rain here! Just done day 29 so last day tomorrow, then level 1 on Friday, then resting saturday. Sunday is weigh in and level 1, Monday is back to running again x

Lol, off schedule already! Just done 27. Def doing the last three over the next three nights. xx Where are you all???

I might try that 6 week 6 pack actually when I've finished shred. I don't want to just do it all again but do want to continue improving on the exercises so will mix in some other stuff too I think. Just done day 26 so if I remain on schedule I'll do 27 saturday, 28 monday 29 Wednesday and finally finish on Friday next…

Yes I am, although I'll probably have a week to recover and just run that week, because Level 3 is actually the first level to give me lots of muscle soreness and it is interfering with my running which is no good. Had to leave day 25 on Saturday and couldn't run Sunday either, my knees were just too sore. I ran yesterday…

I made the final step of giving up smoking for good! I stopped using nicotine gum. Seeing improvements in my dental health already and I do feel as though my fitness has taken a bit of a jump this week.

Eeek, hope you're ok cl! day 24 done today. I found it surprisingly ok. Running with brother in law tomorrow night so next shred day is Saturday for day 25. Can't believe I'm nearly there, and especially can't believe I'm planning to do it all again afterwards. Madness. But it's certainly working, I haven't lost any weight…

Shred day 23 done. Today it actually wasn't as hard as it was the previous 2 days of level 3, so here's to increasing fitness! How is everyone getting on?

that's a shame, but better to wait than injure yourself again. x

Good luck and take it nice and easy your first time, be careful! Well done for starting over instead of giving up on it xxx Well I've done with day 2 of level 3. I was supposed to run yesterday but things got in the way so I think I'll run tonight and do the shred day 23 tomorrow. I must say this level is absolutely…

today was my run. 5K in 39 today but a bit more of a difficult route, and took the dog who hasn't been for about a week so he was out of practice and slowed me down poor lad. I felt stronger though and overall it was really positive xxx Shred tomorrow, the pain in my abs has only gone away today (revived slightly by my run…

also, (sorry pressed post half way through!) symptoms caused by increases in hormone production are not solely physical, so we're not blaming our body for something our mind chose to do, our mind is also affected by periods (ask my husband!) I literally feel like I've been hit by a truck for a week, and that physical…

everything doesn't have to be a message all the time. sometimes we can do what we want, and leave others to do the same.

well, I'm not a massive lover of resisting cravings at all costs whether I'm on or not, I just make up for it either with exercise or eating better the rest of the week. It doesn't stop me losing weight and I'm quite happy like that. I will say though, I really depends on what sorts of symptoms you get with your period,…

Gastroc and soleus - this is a good demo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4sKp599zLs glad I found this as it actually helps me - hip flexors http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKFJOTk-cUE bizarrely I can't find one video where somebody stretches the hams without dorsi flexing the foot, it's not wrong per se but the stretch on…

Lol, showing off when I have a depressing 9 days left!! My shoulder is A LOT better from having a rest day. I feel so much better today. I will be shredding later on, and have lots of walking and what not to do today as well so feeling fabby! Glad your shred went well Supermom. If you're sore from running you may not have…

What I do basically works out the same I think. eat at a deficit of 350 calories each day, if I've done exercise I *can* eat more because of it, but I don't make a point of eating all of it unless I'm hungry. If I've not done exercise then I eat less to stay at the same deficit, although this almost never happens because…

It's still sore but does feel better, but then last time it was like this I carried on and then ended up having to rest because it got worse, so I think I'll rest today and do it tomorrow. Be sensible not like last time. I'll do a load of housework and walk the dogs and what not to make up for the calories. Glad to hear…

Crikey, 1, 2 and 3 in one day! You'll *be* Gillian soon if you're not careful! I don't know, I've had problems with this shoulder ever since I started exercising more again. It was really bad last TOM and then manageable inbetween and now it's TOM again and it's really bad again. My first day at L3 could have caused it but…

I should be shredding today but have woken up with my shoulder very stiff and painful again. currently I can't use that arm to push myself up off the couch or out of bed, so can't see me doing plank walks today :(

I don't hate vegetables but I get fed up of preparing salad every day, so I recently started making big pots of soup full of them. It's an excellent way to get loads of veggies in without the boring chopping, and in your case, crunching. It does mean eating the same thing for lunch several days out of the week, unless you…

P.S. if level 3 is giving you back trouble, perhaps consider doing level 2 instead but just working harder, really doing all of the advanced versions and working your *kitten* off?
