shred thread (measurements and pics)

Blade26

So Day 8 Shred and I am finding it easier, should be Day 10 but an old hockey injury (knee) reared its ugly head so I had to wait to buy a knee support. I have also joined Slimming World so my measurements now are:

Weight: 13 stone 12 stone 11.5lbs (- 2.5lbs)
Height: 5 foot 5 inches

Waist (Narrowest): 83cms (32.5 inches) 32 inches (-0.5 inch)
Belly Button: 104cms (41 inches) 38 inches (-3 inches)
Hips: 109cms (43 inches) 42 inches (-1 inch)
Boobs: 108cms (42 inches) 39 inches (-3 inches)
Bum: 114.5cms (45 inches) 44 inches (-1 inch)
Right Thigh: 66cms (26 inches) 24 inches (-2 inches)
Left Thigh: 66cms (26 inches) 23 inches (- 3 inches
Right Arm: 33cms (13 inches) 12 inches (-1 inch)
Left Arm: 31cms (12 inches) 11.5 inches (-0.5 inches)

Oh my life I am ecstatic! I started to do it because my boobs looked obscene in my dress when I tried it on at Xmas, I want to carry on with the toning and the weight loss, though not too much as I didnt buy a dress too small, just put some chub on after purchase LOL.

2 more days on Level 1 then onto level 2 for me :T

Well done Blade - you have worked really hard there - great inch loss. I've done my first Zumba class since posting my stats, and have been walking a lot more too. Will repost my stats when I've done a full month, as I've got a 3 hour long Zumbathon for a local hospice on Saturday, then Zumba the next day, so it all should help. I've noticed a change in the way my clothes fit already which is good.

ok end of week 1 for me, have managed the dvd 4 times (just due t time and motivation!) had healthy eating but a 'normal' weekend of chippy and some lager...

waist (narrowest bit): 32" same
around belly button: 37" same
hips: 40.5" same
right thigh: 27” (26, -1)
right arm: 14” (12, -2)
bum:43” (42, -1)

Total inch loss of 4 inches.

BMI = 28.53!!!!!!!!!! now 28.2

weight down 2lbs

Why the sad face after 2lb loss? That's a good amount to lose in a week, plus you've lost four inches and over half a point of your BMI!! If you know you didn't do quite as much as you intended then you know what you need to do next week...


Still waiting for my DVD, and have just bought a sports bra, so I'm almost set to start!

I am mega impressed, your starting measurements were pretty similar to mine so this gives me hope. Are you doing anything else other than the shred?

I'm a bit miffed this week. I did 3 days of shred and also Zumba and I've switched to a healthy eating plan, except for wine on Saturday night.

And.... no weight loss and no change in my measurements
I worked my butt off this week so I'm really disappointed.
I lost 3lbs in my first week so I dont know what I've done different?

Do you think Shred makes you build muscle which cancels out your weight loss? I hope so!

H2B thinks I look more toned though, but he might be just saying that to make me feel better :cool:
