    L1 Day 10 complete! :bigsmile: I think I feel ready for L2 tomorrow! (Still doing the modified push-ups, but I'm happy that I can do all of reps.) I have to admit that I'm feeling proud of myself for starting this and getting this far. I also have to say that I don't know if I would have stuck to it if not for the support of my MFP friends. The encouragement has been fantastic and sooo appreciated! :heart:

    Good luck, everyone!

    Oh-My-Glutes!

    Level 2 Day 1 DONE

    This level is super intense. I was only 3 minutes in to it and had to stop to catch my breath... and I'm still panting!

    Happy shredding everyone!
  • L1D9 finished last night! Anyone else feel heavy? I've been feeling heavy the past couple days but I think it may be from the whey protein shakes I started on Sunday. My friend told me it would do that. It makes it really hard during cardio. I feel like i have weights on me. Jump n jacks are starting to give my shin splits. Bah this whey protein is messing up my workout!! Last day of level 1 today. So not looking forward to moving to level 2!!!

    I was happy later in the week when I didn't sound like an 80 year old when I was getting out of a chair. :laugh: I am proof that it does get better. I am a complete exercise slug and I just finished day 10. Never thought I would make it after day 1.

    I do mine in the evenings before going in to work the night shift... today is day 10 for me as well. I too am only able to do the modified push-ups but can go way down with the squats and have even upped some of the exercises to 8lb weights!!! It's really kicking my butt!!! I fast-forwarded to level 2 and 3 to see what's in store for tomorrow (I'm determined to follow the 10-10-10)... YIKES... there are alot of push-up "like" exercises... I'm scared!!! We can do it!!! I can see the inches melting already:happy: You are so right: it does help to watch other peope going through the same thing and all to be in support of eachother:flowerforyou:

    I was layed out on the floor several times throughtout the workout. I know that 80 year old sound all too well :laugh: Going after my 9 month old isn't easy now with a sore body.

    I'm so jealous!! Most of you are finishing up Level 1 and I can't find Jillian!!! I took it with me to a friend's house and now I can't find it :( I'm still on Day 7, but will get back at it as soon as she turns up. I kind of miss her and her "buddies". Until then, boring treadmill workouts for me..

    Great job ladies! I love reading your posts. And I'm dreading Level 2 based on what I see!
  • L1D7 done. I'm actually looking forward to tomorrow.

    L1 D10- last day on level one! I was going to skip ahead today but I must've done really grear lunges yesterday- sore, sore quads. I felt great and am still nervous to move on. Wow- looks like more lunges and some plunks in the future. Bring it on! I'm looking forward to others journeys with me on to level 2.

    To everyone still checking in every day- thank you. Even though I don't chat that often, just seeing other people struggling and succeeding with me makes it worth it.
  • I have been off the computer for a few days but have been keeping up with the workouts. I'm so jazzed today is L1D10. I can't wait to start level 2 tomorrow.

    I feel bad that I've fallen off the forum but hopefully life has settled enough to allow me a few minutes to get on every day. I was thrilled to read the past few days' posts. You guys are awesome!

    I started the Lean P90X ( for real this time) on Monday. 30DS is the perfect end to my day even after an hour workout before. I kinda look forward to all of the "buddy"s and "phoning it in"s.

    Lets level up!
  • LEVEL 2 done!! I feel just as JM wants.... " I want you to BURN !! " :devil:

    I started off with Jullian's 30 day Shred last year and she is AMAZING. She transformed my body at the age of 43 never thought that could of happened but it did. I love her workouts. I have all of them now just got the Shred with weights and the 6 week abs. and doing those two the past week. I do have the Metabolism and the Zone toning. Love all of them.. Good luck and keep up with it you will get results just takes awhile.. I went from a size 12 to a 9. in 4 months and toning is awesome. I actually got into a bikini for the first time in Aug of last year and went to a High School Reunion at a Ice House after our formal and was in my suit and everyone says you look amazing .. THANKS JULLIAN... :) Have a wonderful day.. :happy:
  • Finished L1D10 yesterday and took my measurements this morning and found that I have LOST 21 inches! Now I don't feel to bad about the scale since I gained over night.:smile:

    L2D1 done. OMG I thought I was going to drown in my sweat! :laugh: What a workout. I know if this had been the beginning of the levels, I would never have gone to day 2. Actually feel a little stronger.

    Hi everyone!

    I'm new to this group but I started the Shred around the same time. I didn't know there was a group like this so I'm glad I found it :smile: I just did D1 of L2 and it kicked my butt. My inner thighs and shoulders are definitely feeling it! The plank exercises I find are really hard on my wrists but I think I just need to work up the strength. I'm excited to see the results after 30 days!

    Haha- I did the same thing. I'm pretty terrified to try level 2! I'm sure it's going to be just as bad as D1L1 and by D3 we'll be rocking it!

    Level 2 kicked my butt last night. Even though I have completed the shred in the past. Jillian always surprises me. My shoulders, arms, back, butt, and legs are screaming today. I love it! My husband even said it appears you are losing inches?!? Really that was a shocker. I noticed my HRM says I burned about 300 or more calories - is this possible in ~20+ minutes? I sure hope it's accurate. I actually wore my HRM while I was running yesterday and it boosted my calories burned by about 30 calories compared to the treadmill. I even subtracted 30 calories from my HRM to record level 2. I will weigh in on Monday but I will be kicking Jillian's butt by the end of the week hopefully (here is to wishful thinking).

    Keep on shredding guys! It will pay off.
  • I have done her workout. It's good. It keeps you motivated because she breaks it up, and you do level up. Just remember in the beginning, it will kick your *kitten* because I absolutely hate jumping jacks! But stick with it. I personally got bored after awhile because I don't care for workout DVDs, and I got tired of her *****y, manly voice. But she does keep ya going! So, stay with it..I don't know if I got results because I turned to the Wii after awhile!

    L2D2 DONE!

    I've done the 30 Day Shred but only made it up to the last day of Level 2(finished level 2 the day before getting surgery- got my tubes tied) This is a great workout! I have to stop a few times to catch my breath.

    barberella.
    I always have music blasting during the workout. I cannot stand it when she says, "just a few more!":huh:

    Happy shredding!!!
  • L1D8 done. Whew.

    Ugh!!! I've been so busy today that I haven't had a chance to shred yet today!!!! Today is Day 1 of Level 2!!! Can't believe Level 1 is done!!I hope I have energy tonight to get it done! I don't want to fall behind. :wink:

    Congrats to everyone for how far we've all come!!! Hopefully, I'll be checking in tonight.... if Jillian hasn't destroyed me. :happy:
  • I've sort-of fell off with this challenge :( Its 10 days in, and I've only done the DVD 3 times. I finished LV1D3 today. I have been working out on my elliptical in between because the way my house is set up, it is just easier for me to do (the only TV with a DVD player and enough room is in my living room...there are 6 people in my house).

    Either way, I plan on getting to a total of 30 days and finishing all the levels, no matter how long it takes :)

    Proud of all of you for sticking with it though!! Woo hoo!!

    Woo Hoo!!! I had read a few posts and had fastforwarded to level 2 to see what it was all about... I was super scared!!! How in the world would I do those walking pushups when I couldn't get past the modified ones in level 1??? Guess I never really tried... cause I DID IT!!! All the way... my heart rate was through the roof!!! I don't have a monitor so I sure wish I had SOME clue what I was burning... oh well... this thing is definately working... what ever will I do after the 30 days??? I just love the intensity of such a short workout... no excuses!!!
