    I need a Shred accountability partner. Ideally, I'd like someone that wants to start day 1 together - my plan is to start it on 10/8/2012 I'm doing the shred in preparation for starting Insanity. I totally want my hubby to not know what hit him when cycling season starts up again in the Spring.

    Ok, that said - I usually make it to day 6 and die and never get back to it. :(

    I started 30 Day Shred again on 10/1, but I haven't done it every day, LOL. It made me sore and I couldn't do it the next day, ha ha. But I also run, so it's hard for me to fit both running and 30 Day Shred everyday. I'll cheer you on though, and I'll keeping doing it regularly.

    You can find me on Daily Mile here: http://www.dailymile.com/people/supertwinkle

    I started the 30 DS on Oct 1, but I'm doing it every other day instead of every day. When I do it everyday, I end up injuring myself or getting sick! Today is day 3 for me.

    I'll join you. I need someone to give me that KICK. I was gonna start after ds's birthday party on the 13th, but was also thinking this am: it's ONLY 20 mins. I CAN make that time. That said, there is no way I'll be able to do it on the 13th and 14th, but I'll be right back to it on the 15th with you! (I'm another who makes it about 5 days and then peters out...)

    Oh yah. and I need to start working off all the birthday calories before i can't fit into my jeans...boooooo! that being said, it's back to the kitchen!

    I'm planning on starting on Monday myself, so I'll join you guys. I've never made it 30 days in a row, but even when I don't it totally helps!

    Lili, the 30 day shred is a training program on DVD by Jillian Michaels. It's a circuit training combining weight lifting, cardio and abs and I found it really helpful the first time I did it, in 30 days I could really see a difference, I lost weight, was more toned and had waaaay more stamina !

    So we're on for Monday, then? Shall we start an accountability thread extra for the shredders? I really NEED it. The amount of sugar I consumed today was...unspeakable.

    I've still got the little boy's birthday party next sat and the big Boy (aka the husband) celebrates his birthday next Sunday. Now when do I make the husband's cake?!

    bwa ha ha!! I'm perfectly willing to hand the wet noodle over to you because after this weekend, I am beyond exhausted and the thought of starting the shred tomorrow makes me tremble! plus, there are party streamers encircling my entire living room and I know I'll be smacking into them when those jumping jacks start!! at least they'll be down by the time week three and those superstar jumps start!

    Oh... I'm gonna join in but like Christine, I'm mixing mine with running... So I can cheer but won't be doing it everyday... hoping tues, thurs, and sat... but may be more depending on if I wake up in time to go running in the morning... not sure if I can start this week either since I'm fighting the nasties still

    Amber and Pheeebzz if I was shredding you wouldn't have to worry about me whipping out the wet noodles - I would barley be able to lift my arms haha! Luckily for you when I checked with my Chiro about doing the DVD he vetoed me :( - he is treating me for a rotator cuff injury at the moment and he seems to think that I will do myself harm ... I suppose he is right as I can't even iron without my shoulder hurting ... oh well its back to walking for me :)
