  • Bump! I'm almost done with Level one...one more day. I've been training for my first 10K too though, so I've only been doing 30 Day Shred every 2-3 days. Anyone have success when not using it quite in the normal quick succession? I could only do 2-3 military push-ups on day one and today I survived the entire first round…
  • SLOW DOWN. If 90 seconds at 4.5mph is making you want to keel over then go 4.2mph. You might feel like you're barely moving but as long as you put one foot in front of the other you're still making progress!! Keep at it! It will be so worth it the day you realize you can jog (or run!) for 2 minutes and still feel like…
  • I used to do the "double layer" method but I've found that it's really tough on underwired bras because they're just not made for that kind of activity. Plus, nice bras get discolored from sweat. Now I've got a decent sports bra, so that method is a thing of the past. I have D breasts and my preferred method is squashing…
  • I like her! Granted, I've only done her beginner DVDs so...maybe 30 Day Shred will change my mind ;) I like that you can tell in the beginner DVDs that she really likes the people she trained. It may come off as annoying sometimes, but then again, watch any single person interact with another at the mall and in short order…
  • Hmm....I have trouble with my knees as well. I have patellar tendonitis and running makes them sore sometimes. Since I want to run, I cross train with squats and lunges (which is what a physical therapist told me to do) but sometimes I think those moves actually hurt MORE. I'm interested to see what others have to say too!…
  • I've struggled with this a ton over the past 2 years... I travel a LOT for work and my coworkers and I eat out literally DAILY. Since I cannot just sit in the car and eat an apple for lunch while they all sit down in a nice airconditioned restaurant, I'm attempting to come up with maintenance solutions as well. It's REALLY…
  • I'm curious about it too. I suspect you WILL need weights. I am using Jillian Michaels for Beginners "Backside" and "Frontside" DVDs and they're GREAT. I love them. They're challenging enough but can be modified. She uses free weights, a chair, and a yoga mat in those.
  • DEFINITELY your face and stomach both look trimmer! Keep it up girlfriend!
  • Hooray!! That's really awesome :) Keep at it!! Also, like some others have said, 5.2 ain't bad! LOL. I have been running for a couple of years now and I usually clock in somewhere around there or a little slower!
  • I've been taking the approach of eating them back...and not having ANY weight loss. In the past, when I've been successful, I was sticking to total intake of 1300-1400 no matter what I burned exercising. Apparently deviating from that has caused a stagnation for me. I'm sure everyone is different though.
  • I have been feeling similar. I've been tracking my foods and exercise for 4 weeks and haven't lost a single lb. Starting to think maybe my thyroid is acting up or something :/ Very discouraging. That being said, I agree with everyone else. Just keep at it and eventually your scale will move again. AND for sure eat more, or…
