  • One of the things I liked about this program is that it allowed me to to gradually get stronger in those areas too. Aside from the weight loss, there are so many benefits to a picking with this program for an extended period of time.
  • Yes, and I'll get some of that on here as soon as I get some spare time.
  • I use that same equation, and log it under cardio.
  • When I was on YouTube a couple years back, level three wasn't on there then either. I got the complete workout on ebay for less than ten bucks. Yes, all three levels have different exercises. The only thing that is the same is that there is a warmup, three minutes of strength exercises, two minutes of cardio and a minute…
  • I was 42 years old when I lost so much on it a few years ago. It doesn't really matter how you start out as long as you stick with it because you learn so much more about how to exercise as you go if you stick it out even modifying stuff. After the first 60 days, I still couldn't do front arm raises with anything more than…
  • Wow, cool, someone else on here finally gets this too. I think all those preservatives and chemicals mess up the cells on the inside of the digestive tract and cause a ton of problems. I'm always hungry and craving more after I eat like that too.
  • How are you feeling about the shred today? I had a good stretching routine that I followed during the Shred that I will be taking up again. It can't.prevent the soreness, but stretching every day is such a good sister workout for the Shred. I used Margaret Richard's Limber for Life.
  • I remember getting discouraged during the first three weeks of doing the program. I did see little improvements, but I was impatient which was the downer. I think one of the things that kept me going is that I did a lot of research on nutrition and exercise. I tried to focus on the little improvements instead of the weight…
  • I would like to know with the PCOS if you were to the point that you had excessive facial hair, and if so, did the growth slow down after you lost the weight and stopped eating the carbs, or has it not changed.
  • If you need help figuring out what to eat, I can tell you what I did for three months, but I can not guarantee that you'll find it appetizing. It is just something that worked for me that I will be trying to repeat this time through the program. Not everyone has the same lifestyle and not every meal plan will work for…
  • I did her 30 day shred a couple years ago for 60 days losing a total of 40 pounds by logging all of my food and trying to stay within 1200 1600 calories a day I also did stretching daily and walked occasionally
  • Another thing....when I first started the Shred, I discovered information on women's fitness was mostly a bunch of crap. I started researching health and fitness in men's muscle and fitness magazines. I started eating the protein and hitting the heavy weights. This will preoccupy your mind the first month, and help you get…
  • If you do it for 60 days straight, you will get great results. Truthfully, thirty days is good, but you need to stick with any program for more than four weeks to get amazing results. You could lose 20 lbs in 30 days, but real results come from repeating it. Trust me. I've done it sixty days and lost forty lbs. Retrain…
  • Ya, I did it for 60 days consecutive and got leaner up there, but no huge amount of muscle. That takes training.
  • I did it for 60 days in a row a couple years back. Logged all my food for three months. Ate 1200-1600 calories most days. Logged all food. Kept it healthy food. Lost 40 lbs. Lost the first 18 lbs the first 30 days. It works.
  • I finally caved this week, and had my first dinner out since starting the program. Still haven't had any fast food though, so happy about that
  • OMG, I know. I'm so glad Spped 1.0 isn't on this final weeks agenda. I missed two days this week, and had to double down today. Yuck, but at least we stuck with it!
  • Happy Thanksgiving! Week four day four is here. We went out for a Chinese buffet last night instead of making a big dinner today. Didn't workout yesterday either. I'm working out Saturday instead. Today, I'm back on track, and feet great!
  • I'm on week four day three. I felt the same as you a few days into it. My tolerance for cardio is stronger now. I still like the workouts. I previewed each DVD days before I did it so I could see what the modified moves were. That way I could try as many unmodified as possible. I just started to be able to tolerate a lot…
  • I am a woman, and I will honestly say that I see a change in your before and after pics. It may not seem like much to you because you're fustrated and you're used to seeing your body, but this is the first time I've seen this post and I spotted the difference in the pics immediately because I saw my own body do it after I…
  • Learn to eat real foods, and find the ones that you like enough that you can eat the same thing every day for about six months. This will help keep you from over stimulating your appetite. Refuse to eat anywhere except at home. Research articles about "reverse dieting". If you eat the same thing every day, do the same…
  • Don't get hung up on fitness being about weight loss. It's about how you feel. Push yourself to get stronger and be able to tolerate harder cardio moves like jump rope and harder strength moves lile real push ups. If you do this dilligently, you will feel happier because of the hormones released by your brain.
  • Why don't you just eat turkey breast, green beans, salad, and a plain potato or piece of bread. You don't have to eat the pies, stuffing, fatty salads and all the crap.
  • Using PBfit I'm chocolate whey smoothies, and love it.
  • my life is boring, and I'm considering raking a martial arts class as a challenge.
  • Pecan pie: 750 calories a slice.
  • Why is anyone that cares about their body putting chemicals from diet soda in it?
  • In a way I do because I eat the same things every day to stay within my calorie goal, and avoid stimulating my appetite. I only change what I eat at the beginning of the week, and that is adding something small into the day. I only eat egg white omelets with veggies and ham, smoothies, gala apples, cheese sticks, hickory…
  • Isn't it great how much more functional your body is when you drop that much weight? Back aches, hip aches and hobbling around suck. Last year I refused to get caught up in the holidays, and this year I'm doing the same.
  • I like to hide raw veggies in smoothies. I'm currently eating one with water, banana, frozen blueberries, chocolate whey, ground flax seed, frozen spinach, cauliflower, zucchini & pb fit. It's delicious! I've also put butternut squash and frozen Brussels sprouts in them. The water banana berries and why will mask the…
