Just did day 2, today. I am a little behind. I am going to do day 3 tomorrow and then get back on track with starting week 6. I am so excited about the progress that I have made so far. It's truly amazing to see and feel the difference each week! I hope you all can stick with it too. I know it's hard, but the rewards are…

Just completed Level 2, Day 3. It went ok. I am not very good at it yet, but I guess that will come with practice. Yesterday was a crazy day and I didn't get to do it, so that was sad. This week I am going to try to do it as much as I can. It's only 20 minutes, right? Keep up the good work!

I never thought I could do fifteen minutes, but then again I never thought I could do 5 minutes either. :-) Find something to entertain yourself (like when I was running outside, I just tried to enjoy being outside, looking at people's Christmas decorations, etc.) Don't think about the time. That's really hard for me, but…

I am interested. :-)

Level 2, Day 2, Completed! Yay! Boy was I sweating! I am still learning all of the moves, so I know I am not doing all of them right yet. Can't wait to get to like day 4 and be able to keep up better. I know I'll get there. Thanks for all of the support you guys! This challenge makes doing the Shred a lot more fun! :-)

Yay! Me too! 178 this week....going to the 160s ASAP!!

Sorry, it posted my comment twice.

Just got done running....26 minutes straight! I can't believe it. I was just going to do the normal 5 minute run and then I just kept going. It felt so good. I am seriously amazed. I am not in good shape and I have never been a runner, but tonight I felt so good! Wow, can't wait to complete this program. It has been simply…

Day 1, Level 2, done. It was not as horrible as it could have been, but I am definitely going to have to push myself really hard to get all of the moves in. Some of them I was surprised I could do ok, and others didn't go so well. I just have to give myself time because I am still learning it. I can't do the timing right…

Hey! I have been doing the 30 Day Shred and would like to join this challenge. I have been under my calories for food over the past few days and have exercised and got my water in. I have PCOS and a thyroid problem, so it's hard for me to lose weight, so my goal is going to be 4 pounds over the next 14 days. Starting…

Done with Level 1. Looking forwarding to starting Level 2 tomorrow. :-) Keep up the good work everyone! The rewards will be worth it!

Day 8, Level 1, Done! Looking forward to starting level 2 by the end of the week. Love to hear everyone's stories on how it's going. Keep up the good work everyone!

Day 7, Level 1, DONE! I actually am to a point where I enjoy doing Shred. LOL, I guess that means I should go to the next level. JK, :smile: Anyway, I am going to do a few more days on this level and then go on to level 2. I fast forwarded through level 2 to get a general idea of what I will be doing. It looks HARD, but…

Starting Week 5 this week. Who else is with me?

Day 6, Level 1, Done! I am finding myself enjoying it a lot more and pushing myself more and more. Glad to hear the good reports from everyone else. That's encouraging! :-)

Hey! I was just wondering how many days you were doing each level? Since I started a little later, I was thinking of doing 8 days on each level, so I'll be done before Christmas. Do you think that's a good idea? I have done level 1 before, but never moved on to the next levels. Anyway, just trying to get a plan. Thanks!…

Level 1, Day 5. Done! Today I think was my best day at it so far. It actually felt good and I didn't feel like I was dying. Looking forward to the rest of this program.

Day 3, Week 4 Done! Can't believe I have been doing this for a month and that I'm almost half way through the program. I'll see you all in week 5. Keep up the good work!

Day 2, Week 4. Completed! Pushed myself (well, my husband helped to push me. :smile: ) Did two 10 minute runs today. I have never done that in my life. Wow. It was hard, but it feels good to have done that! We went 2.5 miles and I ran for 23 minutes and walked for like 7 minutes, counting a small warm up time. Can't wait…

Hi! I have been a member of Curves for almost a year. People say that it's not really that hard or that much exercise, but it is what you put into it. I have enjoyed it very much. It's not something that I dread or something that is so hard I hate doing it. It's actually fun. I sweat, so that's good and my heart rate goes…

Bump. I am also interested in low sugar/no sugar options if anyone has any.

Day 4, Done! I have to say that today felt easier than the past few days. That's encouraging! I was sweating pretty good, so I think that's good. I feel like I know what's coming up next so I don't have to focus on learning it, I have to focus on doing it all as hard as I can. Anyway, I can't wait to see the end result!

Just finished Level 1, Day 3. I haven't felt very good today and I wanted to skip it, but I knew I had to do it....so I did it and now I am glad I did it. Wow, this exercising stuff is really more mental than physical I guess. People have said that before to me, but now that I am really pushing myself I see that it's true.…

Finished Day 1 of Week 4. The five minute runs were hard, but I am glad that I actually can run for 5 minutes straight without stopping. That's something that I could never do before, let alone two it twice in 20 minutes! :-) Yay! How's it going for everyone else this week?

Day 2 Done. It seemed easier than yesterday, but still really hard. Can't wait to see results! :-)

Hi! Welcome to MFP. There are lots of women on here with PCOS. I also have PCOS and am 23 years old. Just don't get discouraged and enjoy each pound that's been lost as a victory. I have been trying to lose weight and it wasn't until I was able to get some medicine to get my thyroid under control that I have been losing…

I'm interested! Sounds like a good challenge!
