It took me about 16lb, but I was stuffing myself into most of my clothes...

Hello! I'm Roshelle, 20 years old. I've just started level 2 of the shred and it nearly killed me. Need to force myself through it tomorrow.

Day 8 of level one now! Looked up what we have to do on level 2 in preparation... I'm sooo not looking forward to that.

As of 11/02/2013 (UK date) Start weight: 152 lbs Neck 13.0 Waist 28.0 Hips 39.0 Chest 35.0 Biceps 11.0 Thigh - Left 23.0 Thigh - Right 23.0 Bellybutton 35.0 Realllyy hoping to lose some off my belly!

On day 7 and here to tell you the soreness DOES go away! However I have had rest days when its been too much for my muscles. Give your muscles a bit of rest and the soreness will go away :) Apparently Jillian only reccommends you do this 5-6 times a week anyway, the 30 day thing was just a marketing campaign so I've heard.

Urgh I hate it when she does the 'just a couple more' thing too! Bah. The other thing I hate is when she says 'i bet you can feel the burn' and then I realise it hurts like hell! Don't remind me of the pain woman! Overall, I don't think shes too bad and I enjoy the workout. I'm on day 6 so its getting quite repetitive now…

Start date - 11/2/13 Had a few rest days in between. Currently on day 6.

I'm on day 5 of level 1! Looking for friends doing it too.

It came off in the order it went on. Came off face, then thighs/legs, then boobs and has now started to come off waist and stomach :)

The punches, the side lunges and the push ups are the worst for me. Other than that I'm completely fine with level 1! My thighs burnnn with the punches.

Before Measurements: Neck 13.0 Waist 28.0 Hips 39.0 Chest 35.0 Biceps 11.0 Thigh - Left 23.0 Thigh - Right 23.0 Hips (around bellybutton) 35.0

Just finished level one day 1. Not AS bad as I thought it would be but I'm still drenched in sweat and for the last minute couldn't do anything but lie on the floor panting. Can definitely feel the workout though and I love that its only 20 mins! I did do the strength bit with pasta sauces though as I don't have any…

You say you put weight on over the past few weeks? Any chance of pregnancy...?

I am running the 5k101 running programme, so definitely starting slow! I only run for 2.5 minute intervals at the moment. Also, I only run outside on concrete pavement so I may have to try finding some sort of park to run in if a softer surface will help. I will start doing muscle strengthening exercises and see if it…

I am currently running in Nike Air Max Converge Traix. I understand I need to get fitted but I really can't afford new running shoes. It looks like the average price of them is £80 and that is nearly a 1/3 of my monthly wage! I'll let it rest for a few days and see how I go on Sunday... then I might have to start saving up…

I started week one this week, just one more run to go until week two though! Currently weigh 169lb, lost 4lb since the last time i weighed myself.

Started properly today :) Been jogging twice this week and joining the gym tomorrow! Any adds are welcome for motivation.

I'm 20!

What sort of exercises do you do? & what weight dumbells would you recommend? I've never really done any lifting but I don't want to have to keep buying new dumbells for when I need heavier ones due the the aforementioned student status.
