&nbsp;

&nbsp;
❌ If your post does not meet our guidelines, it will be made private with an explanation, archived, moved, or merged. 
&nbsp;
Here are the most common reasons why posts do not get approved in #fitness:
&nbsp;
**Not discussion-focused**
Your post should be a discussion topic that other community members can discuss, share input, and learn from one another. Posts should not be self-centered. Examples of posts that aren't discussion topics include asking for program recommendations, giving daily workout updates, simple greetings, and requests for tailored nutrition/fitness advice. There are pinned posts for some of these purposes.
&nbsp;
**Asking for tailored advice**
Do not ask or provide tailored or personalized advice about diets, caloric needs, meal plans, and workouts. General discussion and sharing of personal experiences is fine. Be mindful that what may work for one person could actually be harmful to another. Always seek personalized advice from your own medical and fitness professionals. 
&nbsp;
**Duplicate**
We may private or merge your post if there are other similar posts.
&nbsp;
**Unsuitable photos**
Please share photos that are PG-friendly and suitable for all audiences worldwide.
&nbsp;
**English only**
The community section is English only, so non-English posts will not be approved.
&nbsp;
**Other creators**

This channel is for discussions about workouts and general fitness topics.

When creating posts, take note of the following guidelines:
&nbsp;
**18+ only**
You must be 18 or older to post in the #before-after-results channel.
 
**Safety first**
Please only share images and information you are comfortable with sharing publicly. Your shared images can be viewed by anyone who uses our app or website, which includes people of diverse ages and genders. Your shared images may be reposted by Chloe. We suggest you crop or blur out your face and ensure no personal information is shared. We accept bikini-style photos, but we may reject photos that we deem to be too revealing or a potential safety risk.
&nbsp;
**Realistic timeframes**
Please only share before and after results achieved in one month or longer. Anything under one month will be removed as we want to encourage long-term success for our community and avoid setting unrealistic expectations.
&nbsp;
**Describe your journey**
Community members enjoy hearing about challenges you’ve done, lessons you learned, and struggles you went through. Be mindful when sharing specific details like diet and calorie levels. Everyone is different and giving specific numbers can create harmful comparisons.
&nbsp;
**Clear comparison**
Try to share before and after photos that have similar lighting, background, angle, and pose for best comparison.
&nbsp;
**Bodies instead of logs or graphs**
Pictures must be of bodies, rather than alternate ways of tracking progress like scale logs/graphs, body composition breakdowns, etc.
&nbsp;
**Don’t promote fad or restrictive diets and behaviors**
Do not promote unhealthy diets/fad diets/restrictive diets (kpop diets, liquid-only diets, very low calorie diets, etc) or have excessive conversations with obsessive behavior towards food and exercise.

I did it y'all. I completed the 2018 8 Week Shred!!!  Idk what possessed me to attempt this 8 week challenge because I literally have only ever completed one of the 2 week challenges but I guess I mustered up the courage from somewhere cuz I went for it! lol

For reference, I started the program on 9/1 at 5'5 and 157 lbs. I ate my usual ovo-lacto vegetarian diet (milk and eggs ok, no meat or seafood) and aimed for 225,000 steps/month. which is equivalent to about 7.5k of daily steps. If I missed my daily walking count, I just made up for it later (sometimes several days later lol). Anyways, I finally ended the challenge today weighing in at 141.4-down 15.6 lbs!!! My ultimate goal is 135-6.4 lbs to go!!!

Thoughts: 
-Was VERY consistent for the first month but started getting lazy and skipping days, delayed my completion by a good two weeks boo
-Started to actually look forward to arm days (???-this has never happened to me in my life, I've always hated upper body workouts hahah)
-Heavy on the full body workouts 
-Noticeable progress in a lot of exercises: up and down blanks, burpees, plank to half squat
-Miniscule progress in some others: bird dog plank
-Hoping and praying that I'll never have to listen to Fool'd Gold again iykyk ;)

Advice:
-PLEASE TAKE A GOOD BEFORE PIC. I took one but the lighting is horrible and I covered up so much that you can't even tell the difference. I'm definitely going to browse through the before and after pics and take inspo from everyone's angles and lighting. Next time, I will wear something that shows off my stomach and legs so I can actually see the progress lol. 
-Accountability buddies are soooo helpful(this was my first one I completed by myself and it was great but I can't wait to join a team next hehe)
-Don't forget to wash your yoga mat regularly 
-Focus on QUALITY not quantity (aka doing a pushup correctly rather than doing 10 wrong ones)
-Stretching/warm ups/cool downs are KEY
-I used two water bottles for weights when required

Thanks Chloe Ting! Overall a really great program! 

Next I'm planning on taking on the 2019 Lean Legs Challenge since I'm going in order  and according to the CT app, my legs & booty have been the areas that I've been neglecting the most. 

If you're still here, thanks for reading!!

Has anyone else completed the 2018 8 Week Shred program recently? Thoughts?
