Thanks - decided in the end that I needed soe exercise so walked my son to football, then back and did a low impact workout set from fitness blender, not sure the back liked it much but the stretches were nice

This happened to me too, persevere, and realise that each section is just a few minutes :) you don't get a body like you want in 20 mins by phoning it in (:))

Hi am pretty local to you, have sent a friend request. Hopefully we can help each other

Dried fruit, yes it's healthy but the sugar :(

Just done day 9 of level one here, waist is def trimmer and i can llift more and actually do some press ups! so getting stronger. I am going to have one day off a week as its hard on the joints and I do do other exercise. Def feels like an intense workout though!

oo thanks for these, I am wondering about BFBM after 30 DS but something for free would be better!

So true. But pregnant boobs, on other women, really hot!

Sugar.. ESP refined sugar

Depends how fit you are ATM... I am doing the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, atkes about 25 minutes

This post makes me never want to post anything on FB again as I am obviosuly offending someone.. But mine would be: Yesterday was Bisexuality Pride Day. I came out to myself and my DH as bisexual 4 years ago. Nobody else in real life knows (hence not on FB) also I have never had a chance to explore this part of my…

Matalan too - i wnet for some new yoga trousers, in one type I couldn't get my hips into a 14..the ones I bought are a 12 and they are loose round the waist... I know it doesn't matter what the size says but it means you can never buy anything without taking at least 3 sizes into the changing room and trying them on, which…

I have this too, and have to be totally cold turkey on all refined sugars, I am ok with fruit and even small amounts of dried fruits. the first 3 days of totally cutting it out were hard but now I am fine, i feel so much better for cutting out the highs and lows. I do find though that if I have sugar in an unavoidable…

Milk is food, thats how it sustains infant mammals. yes its liquid but its not water

Dull and grey here in Stonehaven too :) Please add me as its nice to have firends in the same time zone! For me it was the bread and baked stuff I make for my family....I must resist the cakes! AM dieting and doing the 30 day shred..i have just stopped dying straight afterwards!

My knees hate them and they make my head dizzy to the point of falling over.. Did thousands when I was in the naval reserve, never again

OP my first time I gave in at 7 mins..I am now on day 6 with one rest day and it's getting much easier. Due to back issues I have to modify the modifications too but I am still doing it! Take a look at my blog if you would like. It's def worth carrying on though

Me just before the great Salford swim..1 mile in the Salford quays, my first mass open water swim, loved it!

have you had a rest day? although she says 30 days in other places she def reccomends one if not 2 rest days a week..

That's so annoying. My mum always tells me how thin I am and its really disheartening ESP when I am well within what I should be for my weight and am trying to lose a bit for health reasons.. I think the norm is very skewed nowadays, so that people on the lower end of their weight range look very slim to those who are at…

Def, i normally find my 1500 is enough, since starting the Shred I am much thirstier but not hungrier particularly. this is where the handful of almonds for 180 ish calories comes in handy. have started treating myself to a bedtime hot chocolate too :) Tomorrow I am going to get my DH to set me up with his HRM so I know…

Almonds :) (very carefully weighed out), nak'd bars (one!), greek yoghurt, blueberries

Would be really interested to hear from those who did adaptations to the shred and still got results.. I can't do the jumping jacks, nor any of the twisting sit ups :( and I have to stick with small weights due to back issues. It's still a really good workout but not the full on one and that's level one, have soon to look…

Thanks for sharing I am on level 1 day 4 too, and beginning to get used to it despite having to make some serious modifications for back issues. I am seeing a Pilates teacher tomorrow and hopefully she can give me some ab exercises that I can actually do! Well done you, fantastic results Btw I log it as circuit training…

Thanks all. I see an osteopath and a physio regularly. The physio said today that it was the twists that really were the bad bit, shes not a great fan of crunches either.. However tomorrow I am seeing a pilates teacher, who has spoken with my osteopath and she is going to really sort me out with apporpriate strength and…

its the twisting crunches :9 am going to stick with the straight and reverse ones

I too am on day 4 level one. Its hard work and good value for 20 minutes. I am making several adaptations due to a bad back but its still good. Looking forward to level 2 though because 1 is already getting boring and I can predict whats going to ache next! I need heavier hand weights too :)

Don't give your brain a chance to turn on, just get up and then you wake up 1/2 way through! But some of us are morning people and some not. I can get up and exercise at 6 but am tucked up in bed by 10 at the latest. Do whats best for you.

1500, usually within and more often about 50/100 calls under it. I am 5'6. I am actually loosing about a kg a week on this. I eat back most of my exercise calories

I am no expert but find it difficult to work on my behind too. I have a tendency to let my quads do all the work :( might you be doing this?

Found my weights, they are only 1lb ones and I didn't feel much difference with and without. I was exercising at 6:15 this morning, wtf is that about? Iam going for some sort of subliminal message on the tape..you must exercise... I did a lot more stretching ESP of my shoulders this morning, I really don't think she does…
