I've been down with the flu for a few days but will get back in as soon as I can! I've been fighting this off for over a week now but it really has been kicking my behind the last couple of days. So I won't be able to finish level 3 by the 31st but I don't think it's that big of a deal...I gotta take care of myself. I…

I have to let my self cave every once in a while or I end up binging but you are the only one who truly knows the effects of what happens when you cave. How do you think it would make you feel afterwards??

Done! I am in love with level 3. My head was pounding like crazy (sinus headache) but I still did and loved it!! I must say...I'm kind of proud for not wimping out :drinker:

I have the same issue and am still struggling with it. I recently learned a trick that seems to be helping. When I know that I've had what I think is a decent portion, I put my tools down and walk away. By tools I'm referring to the plate and fork :smile: I feel like it's a psychological thing...once you put your tools…

I'm really excited!! Although I skipped today. I got a yukky cold but today was the first and only day I'm going to let it bring me down!

I do the 30 day shred everyday but also do these DVDs I like to keep it interesting :smile: 20 and 40 min Pilates, Buns of steel (video tape from the 80s lmao), belly dancing dvd, a couple of 10 min ab dvds (got them at Walmart for $3 a piece)

I think it's because you put it so bluntly and I do agree...the way you asked that question was very insensitive. It's nice that you have all of your ducks in a row but some of us are on here because we're trying to get to that point. When I read your comment, I felt that you said it like "a know it all". If it was that…

For some reason everybody stopped posting daily. I'm still here though and going strong :bigsmile: I'm not a doctor but I really don't think it's good to do the same work out 3 times a day. I don't think it's that bad to miss a day or two...your muscles do need rest days. Maybe do different types of exercises not the shred…

Woke up feel like crap (catching a cold) but got up and did it anyways! So proud of myself!

Done! My knees seem to be doing better today. I've been stretching a lot....I think that helped :happy:

I've been having some issues with my knees as well but when I did this a month or so ago I did not run into this so I must have done the exercises wrong a couple of time and injured my knees. I don't want to quit nor do I want to hurt myself so I started substituting the lunges with regular squats or ab exercises (I've…

Level 2 kicked my behind but I liked it!

OMG! I don't know where my head's been lol I haven't been able to get on here for a few days and somehow lost count. I thought today was the first day for Level 2 :laugh: Oh, well... Can't believe we're on level 2 already! WE ROCK!!!

Done with Day 8! Almost done! Let's keep it up!! It's so much more motivating to do it in a group like this. I don't even contemplate on whether I'm going to do it...it's just a matter of when :wink: I like it! I like it a lot!

Nothing pretty to see here :embarassed:

We're half way done with level 1! Woo hoo!:drinker:

WTG!! You can do anything you put your mind to :drinker:

Done! I wouldn't say I gave it all my might but I did it :drinker: The sun is shining...I think I better sneak a walk in today. Can't let a sunny day go by unnoticed...not in Oregon lol

Diddley done! I love the feeling I get after the shred :love:

Day 2 done! Woo Hoo!! Three more days and it will start getting a little easier :smile: (from my experience and what I've read in people's posts)

Thank you so much for the inspirational thoughts this morning! It really helps!! I wish I was that good with phot shop. I'm gonna have to practice.

I use the circuit training, general and log it for 23 minutes. I compared it to the burn showing on my HRM and it was only a few calories off.

WTG! You did it! I felt the same way today and felt like I was going to throw up. Be sure to drink lots of water and this will pass before you know it.

The first time I did the shred it took about 5 days before I could do it comfortably. Believe it or not but even the sweating slows down. You can do it!!! Keep it up!! Oh and after a few days you're going to hate Jilian's voice lol

:bigsmile: I really thought I was going to wimp out after the second set of Level 1 lol but I'm just not that type of person (Thank God!) Sounds like everyone is doing great! Let's get this shredding party started!!!:drinker:

So excited to have a shred support group!! I entered my weight but will keep track of my measurements on my own now and at the end of the challenge. I'll get my pics uploaded tomorrow.

Hi Lisa, I've used the HRM a couple of times when I did the shred and found it to be only a couple of calories off of what MFP says it should be. I think there are days when you work a little harder then others. I found that in myself anyways :smile: The calories we burn really have to do with how much you weigh and how…

Hi Everyone, My name is Maria and I live in Portland, OR. I've always strugled with being overweight and feel like I finally have my head in the game to knock it off once and for all. I'm super excited for the motivation this group will provide. This is my second try with the shred. The first time I hurt my ankle (shred…

Feel free to add me :happy: I'll be as supportive as I can.
