    Did day 4 last night and can actually say I'm not that sore this morning. shoulders are still weak but getting
    stronger. Also was able to move the belt down a notch this morning!
    good luck fellow shreaders and remember "it doesn't come for free!"

    I'm officially 9 weeks post-partum! I started the 30 day shred last week and had to take a few days off so my legs could re coop. Love the work out. I'm sticking with Level 1 until it becomes easy. I think I'm going to do it every other day and walk on the treadmill in between. So far so good. :)

    I am going to do Jillian Michaels Making the Cut. I need to change things up so I am going to follow that for a while. It has been a long time since I have done it. I am interested to see how I do :-)

    My 30DS has come to a standstill. Managed day 2, level 2 (badly) but I'm now deciding if I have a chest infection. Feel like I've been whacked on the ribs with a plank of wood!

    is the 30 day shred the workout by Jillian Michaels? I have 20-25 pounds to go to my goal, hoping to get there by my 5th wedding anniversary in feb, I am looking for anything and everything to help me get there.

    30 Shred or any dvd doing circuit training using weights should not be done everyday! DO it everyother day doing either her Banish Fat Boost Metabolism dvd or interval cardio training in between. IF you do Shred everyday you will be more likely to over train and get injured :-)

    I'm agreeing with this!!!!!!!!!!!

    Day 1 - DID IT. Not too bad. Legs and top of triceps kind of shaky. By the end of the evening I am sooooo sore.
    Day 2 - Oh boy do I hurt. I don't think I'm doing it today. (Didn't do anything that day)
    Day 3 - Still sore but DID IT. Was rough but got bad intestinal cramping that lasted about 15 mintues after (I have IBS so it could be just me)
    Day 4 - Skipped. Had other things come up and couldn't do my exercises. Not as sore though.
    Day 5 - DID IT. I had just finished a cardio part and got down on the floor to do the abs and my head started throbbing out of the blue. I stopped and let it subside and went back to it.
    Day 6 - Might hop on the treadmill or try one of her other DVDs.

    Yep, it the 'evil' Jillian!!!!!

    I've had to cut short my 30DS! NOooooooooooo! Managed 2 days on level 2 and now I have sore ribs! :mad:
    I so want to get through level 2. Hopefully back on it next week.

    How's everyone else doing???

    made it through level 1 day 9 last night - felt pretty strong even though I ate like crap for dinner
    and rode the stationary bike right before the workout. Looking forward to level 2
    to change it up a bit.

    Absolutely not at all. We welcome you! It's just a silly challenge. If you don't finish it, I won't punish you!!!
    I've had to stop, I've got sore ribs, but I'm hoping to get back to it next week (I've had lots of stops and starts, so I've been on Level 1 for at least 2 months!!!!).
