I moved on to level 2 after 10 days... and I could only get all the way through the pushup sections if I did girl ones. I would recommend trying it! It's definitely harder, but not so much harder that I think you wouldn't be able to do it. I was noticeable sweatier, and there are a few sections I reaaaally struggle with, but I feel like it gave me an extra push (plus I had a big whoosh today, after my first day at level 2, so I'm a fan of it already!!)

OK you convinced me... on to level 2 tomorrow. You had me at the word "Woosh" :)

I've been at the same weight for about three days now with the same diet and good eating, and going all out on level 1. Think maybe my body is just used to it?

traveller - I stalled out in the beginning of my shredding, so maybe it's normal? I'd be willing to bet you'll see a significant loss soon!

MD - where did you get your bodyfat %? I can't remember what site I got mine from, & every site I go to gives me a totally different number. :/

Madison - This is the site I use:

The female section is near the bottom, and I use the tape measurement method. I don't know how accurate it is, but it says I'm "Acceptable", so I go with it ;)

WARNING - RANT: Almost didn't do it. I am REALLY bummed. My WW weigh in is tomorrow and from what my home scale is saying, probably no loss. I am bummed and pissed at the same time. I don't get it. I've been SOOO good! Exercised my *** off, literally! I know I'm smaller, I can tell in my clothes. But for God's sake can the numbers on the scale move down, please?!
OK - RANT OVER: Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Today I FINALLY started. Overall, it wasn't all that rough on me, but it was definitely a kickass workout. However - my abs are an entirely different story. They are weak as crap and my stomach is the area with the most fat to lose. The cardio was good in a 'breathe heavy, wow I'm working hard' kind of way, which is great. I'd gotten too complacent on the treadmill and elliptical and stopped challenging myself. I had to stop a couple of times during the abs just to regain my ground for a second, and I cheated myself out of a few pushups.. but other than that, I held my own.

I've heard of many people altering the days from the get-go as it makes the program more effective, but I think I'm going to do level 1 again tomorrow. I hate the idea of working the same exact muscle groups but I want to get a better handle on the moves.

Also, I think I'm just going to mark my measurements thirds of the way through.. too much trouble to do it daily!
