Welcome, Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Woooo hoooo!!! Congratulations! When it's muscle the weight doesn't matter.

Log it as cursiut training. Here's a group that is doing the shred for July. Some have just started, some are moving up the Lvl2. We'd love to have you join us. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/275770-30-day-shred-group-july

I just have to say that I love all the husbands that are shredding!!! I can't get mine into the idea. He is very supportive though and tells me how proud he is of me everyday. No shred for me today. I did ny C25K this afternoon. I am looking forward to tomorrow's shred.

Just finished Day 1 Lvl 1 - I had to skip my C25K tonight because of softball awards so I decided to do my shred tonight. I was able to do a few more real push up tonight and I was very smooth during my byclye crunches (no jerky motions). Tomorrow I will run. Everyone is doing great!!! Keep it up and we'll all be looking…

That ROCKS!!!! So proud of you!

I wouldn't move up yet. You should probably do at least 10 days of each level. The 1st time I did the Shred program, I did more of level 1 (+10) before I moved up, because I could tell I wasn't ready. I actually thought I was ready for Lvl 2, but it was killing me and I couldn't get through it (planks are a killer) so I…

I'm off to do Level 1 Day 3. I am glad to see everyone that stuck to it today. It's good to see new folks joining in, too. Jillian really know how to kick our butts. Bring it Jillian, we can handle it!!! Later after my work out~ I was able to do 10 real, 20 modified push ups during the 1st set and 5 real, 20 modified push…

The other night I went to the movies with DH. We were on a budget and he was kinda grumpy about it. He asked me if I wanted anything to drink? I said I'd like a bottle of water. He said in a real crabby tone, "I'm not paying $3 for a bottle of water!" That hurt. He knows I haven't had a soda since March. We were going to…

I run every other day and it seems to be fine.

Beautiful!!! Congratulations!!!

No need to start over. Just pick up from where you stopped. We all have life that gets in the ways sometimes. I only do the program every other day, because I do something else on the other day. I also give myself a rest day from all exercise. Keep you spirits up and don't beat your self up (that's just setting yourself up…

Maybe you pushed too hard. Try a little more low impact at 1st. Build up to the high impact moves in later days. Maybe your weights are too heavy. When I 1st started I wasn't used to using any weights, so I used cans of food just to get comfortable with the movements. It is still a good workout, but not gonna kill you. If…

My checkbook helps me with my ability to stop buying clothes LOL!!!

I did L1Day2 this afternoon. I decided to take my rest day yesterday and woke up this morning and got it done. I will do day 3 on the July 4th. Tomorrow is my C25K day. I am loving doing this program again. As for the lunges, I still hate them. The 1st time I did the shred, I had to do the lunges without the weights, I…

Thanks for your suggestions. I think I will try this weekend and my recipe make 2 loafs so if it's good I will take 1 to our July 4th celebration. That way I will be able to enjoy something sweet, too.

Thanks everyone. I love my new active and energized self. I know my family loves it too.

Don't worry about the pound. In the beginning your muscles with be swollen and your body will retain water. This is totally normal. Don't focus on the scale for results. You will notice your body changing and clothes will get looser. Keep your focus. :)

Ya'll are doing great. The 1st time I did the the Shred, I thought it was going to kill me. I would cuss at the TV. My DH would laugh at me when I yelled and grunted at Jillian. I pushed through and I ended up loving Jillian. I finished D1L1 last night. This is my 2nd time to do the Shred and I feel much stronger than the…

I can see such a change it your body. Great job, keep it up.

This is a quote from my Jillian Michaels Slim Down app. It was her tip from June 23 regarding the 30 Day Shred: "When my DVD, 30-Day Shred, first came out, a lot of people asked me if it could be done every day. That's a great question, because I normally recommend alternating workouts that exercise the muscles in the…

This is exactly what I was thinking. I def. saw big changes in my body when I was doing the shred. I am going to go back to it tonight. My abs were beginning to form and since I stopped the shred, I don't see them as much.

You look fabulous!!! I can tell you are feeling good in your new bod.

Congratulations on your huge seccess. You are an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your story.

You look amazing!!! I had a double take.

Looking good!!! Keep it up!!!

I just got back from a trip and I continued to log in as much as I could. I ate what I wanted, but found that I was more aware of was I was eating and didn't eat as much. I also made healthier choices and used the stationary bike or swam for at least 20 minutes a day. You'll be fine, just enjoy yourself.

Love that NSV!! Congratulations!

Glad yuo joined Jim. I know your going to love it here.

I love to knit. I started about 3 years ago. I took a class and also found www.knittinghelp.com for great instructional videos. I enjoy it so much that I teach classes now and all my friends have pick up the needles. There are lots of free patterns on the web. I like it because it is a great stress reliever, you can take…
