30 Day Shred ready for Xmas and BIG 40! ANyone want to join me?

[Billster]

Hi All

I have been inspired by the Shreddies and Shredheds on this site and have just done my first L1D1 after having hte DVD sit on my player for a month! I have water on the knee right now so can't do press ups properly but loved the rest of it.

Need a daily Shred pal to keep me on the straight and narrow - have 16lbs to lose before begin of Jan. Am also doing Rosemary Conley but struggling with it right now - I need exercise and no injuries!

Anyone up for it?

I was planning to start this again today (I've done 10 days about 4 different time now!) Am also struggling to stay motivated by it so hopefully this will help. I'm going to do it early evening so will post again then.

Hi,
Will try and join you if I can but am a bit hit and miss with computer. Am aiming to do on alt days maybe a be it more am on L1 D2. Need motivation as well so great timeing for me.
rt knee a bit painful think due to doing press ups on bare floor. Find the first circuit a killer adn the last bit on abs.
Good luck

Thanks for joining in girls. Well done for getting into it. I woke up this morning groaning about doing it but knew I wouldn't tonight with trick n treating. So L1D2 under my belt. Cant say i enjoy it, but do feel better afterwards! Will post again tomorrow. Keep going girls. Xx

Found out yesterday that have to have an x-ray on my knee - luckily doc says I can keep exercising so long as I don't get any pain! Will shred tonight as dd off school on inset this morning.

Am off to do L1D3 just talking myself into it. did take the dog for a 40 min walk this am, and eaten not too bad today so far. Speak to you later

I'll join you too but next week as Im away for a few days this week. I was 40 earlier this year and need to lose at least 3 stone. I also found out recently that for the last 18 months my H has been having an affair and so Ive asked him to leave. I need to shift some of this excess weight and start to feel better about myself.

dusty glad you can join us hope you are enjoying your time away. Sorry to hear about H and well done for making all these positive moves for yourself we are here each step.

just done D3 off for shower and well earned slob/ rest in front of TV

blister hope the knees are behaving and shred going ok

Ok sorry been off radar. Still shredding and also started with a personal trainer doing TRX which is supported bands - great for me as very little lower body stress but oh are my arms and abs feeling the stress instead! How is everyone doing? Sticking at it? If I go off radar again, I apologies in advise. A friend has very bad cancer diagnosis and we need to raise £75000 for his treatment. So frantically gathering friends, venues and raffle prizes together for a fundraising bash at beginning Of Dec. any ideas for fundraising chuck my way - I guess there's an MN board somewhere for it too xx

hi jst joining in here gt my shred DVD and am ready to kick butt (hopefully my own into shape)
i have 3 stones to lose
sorry about your friend. my aunt has been diagnosed with cancer too recently so sending my thoughts and prayers your way
if you post in the general health section you may get better advice sorry am not much help

I have been rubbish as having a horrible week. I am determined to do it though

blister sorry to hear about friend Where are they going for treatment. Quite a few Indian/ chinese restuarants will do charity nights where they charge less put on a set meal and you can get proceeds they are quite into charity work this may well count. Or if you have a restuarant locally that does a BOGOF night maybe they could charge for all meals but give to you the amount of what would have been the free one. we did this on Mon for rotary raised a few hundred.

Good luck

2nd day and my muscles are very weary. hopefully they will become more fluid

thanks for all your ideas and kind words. bugsy how u getting on. Dusty, dont beat yourself up. the bad week will ease off and you can get back into it, in the meantime be kind to yourself. Countess, keep going, they'll (your muscles) get used to it. have walked about 10 miles around an xmas fair so rewarding self with glass of red now! over and out!
