Hey everyone, I know there are others like this out there, but my friends and I wanted a "Shred Thread" to keep us motivated doing Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. Most of us will probably be at the beginning (heck, I haven't even bought it yet - tonight!), but if some of you who see this are further along, we'd welcome any insight to our 30 day journey.
This thread is for everyone, regardless of where you are in the program. There are no rules. When you do the video, check in and let us know what you liked, disliked, excelled at, or need to work on. Plus this is an open forum to rip on Jillian Michaels, since I have a feeling I'm going to hate her by the end of this!
Come one, come all!

So happy you started this thread Heather!! I can't wait to see everyones responses and feedback.0
-
Awesome! I just ordered this yesterday so I'll be starting Shred as soon as it arrives!!0
-
Today was day 5, I did it off and on but this time I am committing to the 30 days, good luck everyone, she's a butt kicker, but you're done before you know it and it feels sooo good! :flowerforyou:0
-
I am currently doing the shred, but do not do it consecutive days in a row. I usually do the video on the days I can't make it to the gym.0
-
I'll order it tonight from Amazon -- so should start sometime next week.0
-
So is this DVD available at, like, CVS? Or do I need to actually trek to a store? Obviously, I can order online but I'm not that patient.0
-
I'm in...I'll dust it off tonight and get started tomorrow!! Very excited!0

It's 10 dollars at Wal-mart and 10.49 at Best Buy.0 -
Ugh. Hm. I'll check CVS nonetheless since I drive right past it. Otherwise a trip to Best Buy it is. This is exciting. I'd have never done this alone - she scares me (she's a large part of why I don't watch the show). We TOTALLY GOT this!0
-
Does anyone have a guess-timate of how many calories this burns?0
-
That's a good question. How do we know? What kind of exercise is it? Will my Fitbit pick up the movements properly? I know a HRM is best for this stuff, but I can't get jilted by another inaccurate one right now.0

Yay mommy! ok. If you're going to do both maybe I can? the question is what to do first. Probably C25K. Or maybe one in the morning and one at night...

I don't know if your cable offers On Demand, but Level 1 of the 30 day Shred is available through On Demand of my cable. If it is, you don't even have to go to the store yet!0 -

Total inches lost on 30 day shred was...23.5 first time round and 9.5 second time round
I did the shred again for the second time and it didn't get any easier but I tried to do it all like Natalie this time round!!! and I lost another 11 pounds..... started at 147 pounds and finished at 136 pounds and lost another 9.5 inches so I think it was great!!!
since then i have reached my goal weight of 119 pounds in early August and have managed to stay at 119 pounds or very near to 119 pounds
Good luck to you all with your shredding !!!0 -
I just happened to see this thread. I just did Day 1 Level 1 last night after a short run. It is only 20 minutes, but it is intense and is definitely a good workout. I feel very energized today, and not sore!! Not sure I will do it every day, as I am also training for a half marathon, but it is a good workout for my cross training days, so I will try to work it into my training plan. Good luck everyone!! I will check in as I do it.

Heather, your fitbit may be able to track some of the calories. There is jogging in place, jump rope (you don't need a jump rope), ab crunches and ab crunches with weights, push-ups and boxing, etc. That is only Level 1 though, haha.0

WOW!! Those are fabulous results!! Was 30 Day Shred the only exercise you did during that time? Did you do it every day for 30 days straight during each round?? Thanks for sharing your success!!0 -
