Life after the Shred

Welp, I just finished my tenth day at level 3. Those 30 days went FAST! I lost about 8 pounds total and am liking the new definition I have in my arms, legs and abs. I still want to lose another 10 pounds or so before I feel comfortable in a bathing suit. So now what?
I will probably buy another Biggest Loser workout video because they work! But in the mean time, I'll keep doing the Shred, but spice it up. I'll do levels 1 and 2 for 10 days and then levels 2 and 3 for 10 days. After that, maybe I'll pair a level with running. I want to keep using the Shred, just intensify it, because I want to keep gaining muscle and losing weight. What have you done after you finished your 30 days?

Congrats Lindsey!! That is so exciting! I've lost a total of 6 lbs since I started the shred! I also paird that with a 1200 calorie a day diet and my body is loving it! I'm hoping to be down another 10 to 15 lbs by mid-June. Crossing my fingers!

I've heard wonderful things about the 30 day shred. I love The Biggest Loser and Jillian. Congrats on your weight loss. I am doing p90x and just started week 2 so I hope to lose some of this post-wedding "happy weight" (as my friends and I call it.)

Sassy Engineer said...

Those 30 days did go by fast! I am thinking I might need to intensify my workouts so I might just have to try out the shred, but it does scare me a little :) Congrats on all the hard work!

That's awesome! I'm planning on buying the Shred DVD and you are the first person that I've heard finish it! Did you change your eating as well? Way to go :)

Elizabeth said...

That's great to hear. I have the DVD and haven't had time to even open it yet! Excited to get going now though.

Did you do 30 days consecutively or was it more like 2 or 3 days a week?

Thanks!
