I was sore too! But it felt good to be sore to me! I love it though, I am looking forward to doing it today. I notice myself thinking "My muscles aren't sore anymore, I must need to do it again!" lol.

Yeah I was surprised to find my latte and gingersnap latte tastes really good either way, so why not have it healthier!

Yeah I like the sore feeling too, makes you feel like you've worked hard!

Exactly!! And that feeling of working hard... makes you know you can actually do it, and then you just want to keep up with it. I like the feeling, because even when I coughed the first day I could feel my abs ache. And I was happy that I knew it was working. Are you doing any other exercises with the 30 day shred?

Yeah I'm trying to also do other cardio like using my sis's elliptical. And I also have a gym membership so I could always go there and use the treadmills or bikes. But yesterday all I did was the 30 day shred and I'm sore in lots of places, but today I'll do 30 mins on the elliptical and do the 30 day shred.

I would suggest doing the elliptical first. lol. I know for one,I am VERY TUCKERED OUT after doing the video, and sore enough that I want to rest for a while afterwards.

just popping on to say hi real quick. I'll go back and catch myself up on things in a few. been great chatting with you.

I'm glad you stopped by! It was nice meeting you in the chat room!

I did day 3 of the 30 day shred, and its definitely getting easier... and I really thought it never would. I get a good sweat in, but my muscles are not that sore. Though my neck sort of is.. So I'm glad I will be added some of the Couch to 5 K program starting tomorrow. If I get bored tonight I will do the 30 day shred again.... I need to get deeper into the exercises or something.. it is not as rewarding if I am not sore afterward.

Yeah I definitely did the elliptical first. Even though it makes it harder for the DVD, it would be worse the other way around. Lucky you, you don't seem as sore. Today was my second day and I'm sore as hell, especially my calves but I do feel it in lots of places still.

Main place I was sore was my thighs. Today I just... wasn't sore. I'm only on day 3! So I will try more intense tomorrow.

I like to peak at the scale in the mornings, even before my chosen weigh in day this week... (which is Tuesday), and I am already at 208.2!!! That is almost 5 pounds down. I must not realize how much I have to eat to maintain my weight, or that 30 day shred is working me in all the right ways!!

Needless to say this is keeping me that much more motivated. I really hope to reach my goal for Valentines Day- 198.

Today I am going to POSSIBLY go out shopping. I want to get out of the house really. I might get some soup from panera bread (soup only! ) and bring it home for lunch. I really don't have a food plan for today, but I still have that list of healthy choices to look at.

I start the C25K today, and I will be doing my 30 day shred. I am nervous about starting it in this weather. The streets are covered in snow and ice...I am worried about falling. So if I feel I am in danger of any sort, I will wait until it is safer, and I do not have an indoor alternative to run on. So it would have to wait. BUT- I'm still looking forward to starting it. I am very excited with the results of the 30 day shred; and I can't wait to do it again today!

Be careful running with the snow and ice... Don't push it if you don't feel safe hun, I don't want anything to happen to you...

Imma start my program Monday, so we'll share notes. C Ya!

Thanks Karl. I guess I'm also worried that cars are going to slide and hit me if I fall in the street... sidewalks are all covered in 6 inches of snow or so. I'm going to see how it is, I'll go with my gut if I don't feel safe.

Hahaha... That's exactly what I think! No pain, no gain, right?
