I did day 23 yesterday, Have a day off today. So far my waist has lost 0.6 inches, my arm 0.4 and my butt 0.8 inches. And I've lost 7 pounds since I did day 1 at June 14. But I haven't been following any diet. Just trying to eat healty, but there's always some cookies and ice cream that's come through my mouth
I'm new to the board...
I found this thread when I was doing research on the 30 day shred video...and well..I just received my video today so thought I would join!
I will start the program tomorrow and I am pretty excited about it, although I know it's going to be really hard but hopefully will be worth it. I am also going to incorporate The Firm's power yoga to get my flexibility back. I am hoping to lose as close to the 20lbs as I possibly can!! I've gained a lot of weight in the last year and am trying to get back into the habit of working out and eating well.
It's been about two weeks since I first posted on this thread, and I finally started level one all over again this afternoon. I was able to get through the entire workout, with a few pauses in between, and feel wonderful. I plan on doing this dvd for the next 30 days so please wish me luck!!!
I'm about 3/4 through with level 2. Butt kicker and still huffing and puffing, but definately seeing results. Wish I was seeing more in my tummy, but guess since it's still the "thickest" part of me, it will take a while.
Wow...i just finished day 1 level 1!! I just finished and I can already hardly move!! It was really hard, but I really like her attitude and the fact that it's not all these crazy dance moves that you can hardly follow along with like a lot of home videos!
Anyway..I officially weighed myself this morning so I could see where I am starting...and definitely got discouraged. So..I am going to stick with it and see the results...wish me luck!
Good luck to everyone else and keep me posted on your progress!!
I'm off the wagon, girls. I had minor surgery to remove a growth on the top of my foot and I can't wear sneaks for at least a week or two until it heals. I'm going to start all over again at level one when I get back into it.
I almost gave up when I started day two, level one today. I couldn't believe how weak I felt when the workout first started. It was the jumping jacks in the beginning that got me, but was able to hang in there and finish. I really like the burning feeling I get when I do the push ups, and of course the stretching at the end because the workout is finally over!!! I'm not looking forward to tomorrow - my legs feel sooooo weak already....
Jennieo and bettyspaghetti- It is worth it you will be sore but just keep plugging away and it does get easier
femmecreole- I hear ya about the tummy I am defiantely seeing some results but not a whole lot in tummy area, even those around me say they can tell..... I am going to keep going at it and will hopefully see something in the next 2 weeks.
I am off this wagon as well until September. I have Carpal Tunnel pretty bad in both hands. They operated on the right hand this past Wednesday and the left will be done in two weeks. So that pretty much shelves practically the whole vid for me.
But YaY I'm getting my hands back!!
I will still read to see how you all are doing. From what I see, your doing great!! I cant wait to become part of this crowd again!!
SweetnSassy that is great about the hands you will be happy that you had it done but to bad about not be able to keep going with DVD but once you are healed up good you will be back on track, for the time being are you walking or getting any exercise in at all?
Melodyleigh how is it going this time around did you get as sore as first time?
Day 26 is done!, easier every time.. But the last strength part is really killing me,, the one with push ups-- I have to do the modified ones the second time.. When I'm done with the 30 days I'm planning to do them all over again . Like them a lot. But then mix the levels, L1 - L2 - L3 - L1 - L2 - L3 and so on.. Hopefully I'll be able to do real push ups by the end
Well, I just finished day 3 since I decided to take a break yesterday. I feel I'm able to get through the dvd with less breaks so can't wait to continue.
I want to thank you sweetnsassyfied for starting this thread since it's what got me off my butt to go out and buy the dvd. Good luck with your surgery.
theresia, your an inspiration - day 26 already done and you're going to do the 30 day shred all over again - all I can say is "WOW"!!!!
