That's great ladies! I went on a bit of a drinking bender this weekend, so got NO workouts in. Now I feel so guilty so I will doing it again tonight. I'm still on Level 1 with 3lb weights but it has gotten much easier next time. I'm going to stay on Level 1 til I can do it w/ 5lb weights ... then move to Level 2 w/ the 3lb weights and go from there. I hadn't noticed any weight loss yet, but I am sure some of my extyra jiggle is tightening up, so I wouldn't expect to see anything on the scale yet...

 

Keep it up ladies!!

Level 2 + 80s music = VERY DANGEROUS! for me anyway :)

 

I have been listening to my iPod while doing he shred and tonight I was doing (level 2) the military presses with the leg "kick" and things got a little out of hand when Quiet Riot came on. We did a cheerleading routine to "Come On Feel The Noise" when I was in HS and I was so reliving it it tonight!! Then the jump rope x3, I was jumping around like a mad woman and wasn't paying attention and jumped right into the couch and onto the floor.

 

I amaze myself sometimes...

So it's been a full week for me on level 1 and it's getting a little bit easier. I've been using 4lb weights and the lunges with weights in the 3rd cycle still kicks my butt! Oh yeah, and the upper arm strength with squats. I kinda want to watch level 2 just to see how much harder it is.

 

Ashley, I know how you feel about the BD pics. Mine are February 7th and I'm FREAKING OUT! I went shopping for my little outfits on Saturday, and I'm still disgusted with my belly. I hope you're feeling better! Being sick is no fun at all!

Oh that is too funny! Sounds like the shred and 80s music go good together!

Last night I did level 2 with 5lb weights and this morning I did level 3 with 3lb weights. I am planning on rotating every other day between level 2 and 3 since I like moves in both of them and I will get bored if I did the same thing every day. I did not get to wear my heart rate monitor since I miss placed 1 of the pieces. I am going to have to find it. I do know that when I do level 2 and 3 I sweat like crazy. It really helps when my lovely FI thinks I should sweat a bit more and makes a fire while Im working out (our fireplace is in the living room which is where I work out) he has done it twice now Im like hello I am already sweating I do not need a fire!

HILARIOUS!! Oh, I wish I could see a video :) When I was a cheerleader, we did a routine to "check baby, check baby 1234" (whatever that song is) and I relive it every time!! cheer2.gif

OMG - I cant imagine a fire too! Although I have always wanted to try "hot yoga" (Bickram yoga). But you prepare yourself for that!

General Question - how often are we supposed to be doing the Shred? I'm worried that 5 days a week (I work out before work) will be too much and I should throw in a day or 2 of yoga or pilates or something else. But I want to lose weight! So...does the 30-Day Shred mean 30 days in a row?

I always wanted to try Bickram yoga also. I know FI is crazy starting a fire I told him the next time he starts the fire he has to do the video with me LOL!!!

 

My understanding is that you do the video everyday for 30 days. I still like to do other things so I still go to the gym and do cardio, pilates and yoga.

Ok - so everyday, plus whatever else. I guess I can do that for 30 days (or 60 really) before my wedding :) I usually do either a video, yoga or pilates in the morning and run after work, so I guess I will stick with the Shred in the mornings!

 

I really like how limber I get from yoga & pilates so I will have to work those in sometime....oh, there aren't enough hours in the day!

I agree there are not enough hours in the day. Yeah there are so many other things I like that the gym offers and to be honest what if the video does not work magic results then it will be my wedding (only 39 more days!) and I will be no different then I am today so I just feel more relaxed if I do added things.

I do Birkram Yoga and I LOVE IT! Talk about sweating, you will come out like you just took a shower...LOL. The health benefits are amazing and you burn an insane amount of calories. I believe an instructor told me its upwards of 600 calories in a 90 minute period. I know for me I come out not only feeling like I had a great workout, but like a more positive person as well! The only advice I can offer is drink LOTS of water before and don't eat right before either.

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
