Re: JILLIAN MICHAELS 30 DAY SHRED

do it when u think u can stick to it.... kids school food hw... u shoudl find a quiet timf or ureself with no disturbance.. adn stick to it ...

waise... its best to do it in teh morning... u get ure body up and running and digest food better...

but dont let it hinder ure ability to do the work out... if evenings work better ... do it then....

i did it all over the day... never stuck to one time... usually it was during the afternoon though... once i put midget to sleep

would morning be better for u... once the kids are off at school?

Re: JILLIAN MICHAELS 30 DAY SHRED

Day 1:
It wasnt hard at all, maybe cuz I have been working out. I do have my motivational level swinging around cuz I have been trying so hard to shred but nuthin happened so far, maybe I am loosin in inches but I dont see a huge difference. Anyways :( it is so disappointing at times.
I just hope n pray I get results this time n stick to this Rut.

Re: JILLIAN MICHAELS 30 DAY SHRED

Aww thanks. I hope it works for u like it did for me....

1) yes its for 10 days but u move up when u think u are ready.... I know i took i think 11 days to move up.... U dont have to ace at every excercise either.... Like push ups are still hard for me.... I didnt wait to get awesome at it before moving to level 2.... When u feel like ure stamina has been built up and its ok now, time to move to next level...

2) some ppl do.... I cant... Just dont work out on a full stomach either... And do not drink loads of wster with the work out... U will get nauseous.

3) no harm in doing it in the evening... If u have a busy schedule... Its better to wotk out when u can rather than try to do whats better even if u cant make it happen. S just do it when u have the time... Only takes 20 mins :)

All the best!

Nida: i am telling u right now... Dont even ink bout getting on the scale or pulling out that tape measure until atleast day 20! Eeryone loses weight at a diff pace.... I dont want u to check back here to match ure progress with anyome elses... Just keep doing it and eat sensible... It will happen! Jadoo i charri nahi hai.... Will take time.

All the best o u too :)

Apple Blossom

those pushups won't give you manly arms, rather tone them.

Re: JILLIAN MICHAELS 30 DAY SHRED

ok, so im on day 5...level one is pretty decent up to now, im legs and arms are slightly sore but thats all. I might move up to level 2 in a couple of days. I have not lost anything, I actually gained 3 pounds, which im really hoping is muscle gain lol. The good thing I noticed is my energy level! I used to have such a hard time waking up for work in the morning, and these past few days I have been fine and noticed my energy level has been higher througout the day too.

Re: JILLIAN MICHAELS 30 DAY SHRED

Apple Blossom,

are you eating any salads? If not add those and reduce roti. 1/2 roti is fine, I am talking about when you have more than that. That is one thing I would change. :)
