Morning Ladies!

Well...I did Shred last night and I am in AGONY today!!!! Hahaha:rotfl: Just goes to show how unfit I am! It was pretty hardcore (and that's just level 1! I dread to think what 2 & 3 are like). My legs are killing me! Don't think I can do it again tonight so I'll have a night to recover and try again tomorrow.

No pain, no gain I guess. I think it will definitely get results!

omg lovecake. well done for that!! you are brave. lol. im scared now.. as it is body attack is killing me today. whats shreds going to do to me today? did you find you got into straight away or did you have to watch it first and then have a go? :0)

lovecake

I just went for it straight away. I thought if I watched it first I would chicken out! haha! It is so quick that it seems as though it is over in a flash. I think that's why I'm so sore...I thought well it's only 20mins so I'll just really go for it! Oh dear..... Haha! There's no time to rest at all in the workout - not even for a second so you just have to power through to the end. I really think it will work, but I won't be able to do it every day to begin with. I think I will try 3 or 4 times a week to start and build it up when my muscles get used to it. I don't want to do any damage! Lol!

Well done lovecake! I'll no doubt be cursing it tonight, but at the mo I'll really excited to get started. One tip I read online last night is to do more cool-down than on the DVD - stretching lots helps with the aching the next day apparently. So I'll give that a go too...

Are fellow shredders taking measurements so we can track our progress?

Rups32

ohh i feel left out now. lol.. i want to join too and like u said lovecake, prob do a few days at a time.

does anyone find taking their own maeasurements a pain? i just cant do it. hehe
so ok will try getting home not too late and try and take down measurements. erm are we going to put them on here?

I can't take my own measurements either rups. I get OH to help. It is really hard to get the tape measure straight! I took measurements on 6th June when started the diet, and have taken them start of July, n will be taken this weekend.
I don't mind puttin them on here- although will not be doing the shred.

MsShopper

Not sure I'm brave enough to put my measurements up as they are now, but I think I will once I've (hopefully!) completed the DVD.

No! I always feel really bad about how massive I am. Keep having to remind people that I'm tall.

Definitely gymming it today. 11 days to my fitting.

Rups32

code.. i am sure you are not massive..you are too strict with yourself! wow 11 days to fitting.. woo hoo! how tall are you? im only 5'3 so when i put on weight, i look a fat duck! haha

Rups32

erm ok maybe lets prviate message out measurements? i think i could put them up as that might encourage me.. thats how slimming world worked for me as when attending those meetings, we would get weighed and when i had put on, it was my mission for the week to lose it! hmm ok i think i can say i will do the shred properly next week! but will try bits and bobs if i can.
