Shred, Shred and more Shredding

Well, maybe not that much shredding. But, progress none the less!

This week I stayed at Level 1 again. I need to move up because although Level 1 isn't easy, it certainly has become comfortable to do and I really like the flow of Level 1.

I was able to go for two 30 minute runs and do the Shred 3 times this week. No change on the scale,

BUT (drum role........)

this morning I was able to fit into a size 4 pants I haven't been able to in over a year. I had actually tried this pair a little more than a week ago and couldn't get them past my mid-thighs. Two months ago - I had to buy a size 10 pants!

Definitely seeing decreased size/toning in the stomach, thighs and arms.

So, despite no movement on the scale, this morning was certainly a huge motivator to keep going!

It is so great to hear somebody else is experiencing what I am. I have been getting many compliments that I look like I'm losing weight and have found many pants fitting better, but my scale isn't showing anything. I did read that once you begin a new exercise program to not look at your scale because your body does weird things with retaining water as it grows accustomed to the new program. I am on Day 3 of the shred and have found that it is easier, but still burns. Definitely a great DVD. Keep up the great work!!

size 4? I've never been a size 4 in my life. I hate you a little bit.

Congrats! That's awesome progress. I need to start on Level 2 -- hopefully I'll get a chance tonight. :-)
