Holy Smokes!! Just finished day 1 of level 2. I'm a sweaty red-faced mess. ha. Had to stop so many times, just couldn't handle so many of the moves like the plank thrusts...crazy! and the chair squats with the v arms thingy. But, considering I was like this at the beginning of level 1 I'm excited to see myself improve with…

Day 7 of Level 1 completed and I was a sweaty betty after that today. Can do all the exercises, even all of the bicycle crunches which were super tough for me at the beginning but I still can't do the push-ups at the beginning. Can do about 5 or 6 and then I am dead on the ground. Anyone else with this problem? What…

Day 4 Level 1 completed! My legs were not as painful today, could finally walk up and down stairs! Forgot to take measurements at the beginning so doing that tonight. Haven't weighed in since I started as was afraid I would see a gain so will weigh in and measure again on day 15 to hopefully see some good results!

Thanks for the advice! I went for a gentle walk this evening before hitting the shred and have done lots of stretching too. Gonna do some more stretches before bed and in the morning too. Just had some ordinary skimmed milk after my workout today but chocolate milk sounds way better :) So yeah day 3 level 1 done and…

Hi to all you shredders! Just completed day 2 of level 1 and I'm broken :) Before I started tonight my legs were really sore and now I can barely sit down! Agghhh. Please tell me I'm not alone in this agony. How long before it passes? I mean, by what day do you feel comfortable and not feel like your legs are on fire??

Just did my day 1 there this evening. Sweated lots and have a big crazy red face to show for it now. I did lots of extra stretching as the cool down is very short on the dvd. Had attempted this before, only managed 4 days but I'm determined to push through this time. Good luck with it!

CW: 178 Sorry I missed last week's weigh in. Things are a bit tough at the moment and it's reflected in my weight too. Good luck everyone with the week ahead. xx
-
CW: 177 Gained 2 pounds. Sad face. Sorry guys, everyone is doing really well and don't want to let the side down. I had lost quite a few pounds over the last few weeks so thought I might slow down but not gain. Just means I need to be extra careful and work harder this week. Good luck everyone for the week ahead xx

CW: 175 Bust: 41.5 Waist: 38.5 Hips: 39.5 Arm: 13.5 Thigh: 25 Can't explain my loss this week, didn't expect it at all after losing 2 pounds last week but I'll take it!! I have been on MFP for 2 months now and have lost 13 pounds. That's good progress as far as I'm concerned. I would happily take another 13 pounds over the…

Thanks for posting this! :flowerforyou: Made it today and it was lovely and super easy too. I didn't add the greek yoghurt as I was all out but gonna get some later and have another bowl tomorrow. Bet the flavours will be even better tomorrow!

Rows completed! I also thought they were a bit too easy but I'm only using 2lb weights, think I'll just do more sets tomorrow. I had a nice loonng hot shower this evening, not my usual quick-in-a-hurry-late-to-go type and it was lovely and relaxing and I had meant to get an early night but it's already 11:36... so gonna…

CW: 185 Down 1 pound! Hurrah! Sleep has been absolutely awful this week. I can't sleep for more than 3 hours and I've been feeling really tired and miserable as a result but I will hopefully get more of a chance to relax this week. Down to 20 crunches left and will get them finished up tomorrow morning, plus I love putting…

Working it out I have roughly 1.3 pounds to lose per week so yeah you're right Jenn that is a great kick up the butt! I've lost 2 pounds so far in 3 weeks so need to get moving more. Again, Jenn thanks so much for all your hard work organising everything. I am definitely gonna hit those crunches. My calves were aching this…

CW: 186 Sad face, that's a gain of 2 pounds. I'm heading back to the UK after my holiday next week and can't wait to get back on track. Thanks Jenn for all your hard work, I love the chart and the challenges. And I want to promise the team that next week will be better and I hope to have lost these pesky 2 pounds for my…

Yup, 5'7 here too! I'm currently 184 and my goal weight is 140. A lot of work to do but I'm excited to get down to it and get to my goal. Feel free to add me as a friend as it's lovely to have pals with similar goals in mind. Have a lovely weekend!
-
CW: 184 No change for me but I'm lucky really, haven't been tracking food or paying attention. I'm on holiday and enjoying myself and will get back down to business in another week's time. Gonna keep my water intake up and try for all the fruit and veggies and hope to tackle this week's challenge better than the burpees.…

Hi there, Count me in, please! I'm very new to MFP, just signed up today in fact, and thought what better way to meet people and help with friendly support than to join a challenge. I'm 29, currently living in London but from Ireland and just finished a course in education, I'm finally a teacher and start my new job in…
