    I'm going to throw in the peanut galleries 2-cents worth (I'm the peanut gallery, BTW :tongue: ). I would love to join this group, but my time is very tight - I'm just getting some down time right now but wanted to post some inspiration for all those about to do this.

    I ordered JM's "30-Day Shred", "No More Trouble Zones" and "Six-Week Six-Pack" from Amazon a couple weeks ago. I started them all (not at the same time... except for the first day since I needed to know what I was getting into!) since I really notice a difference in my body when I mix up my workouts (everything from Cardio, Dance & Strength, to Yoga, Tai'Chi, Kickboxing & Tae Bo). I have only done JM's DVD's a few times & ALREADY have seen a difference... in only 1 week!! Not necessarily "weight" loss, but how I look, feel & how my clothes fit (I don't trust the scale since I'm building muscle as I lose fat & the scale does not seem to understand this :wink: !).

    If you keep up with her program you will DEFINITELY see a difference; push past the fatigue that comes in the first 10 mintues & your second wind WILL kick in & you suddenly feel great, on top of the world, like you could keep this going forever! OK, maybe not forever, but at least till the end of the DVD :laugh:

    Good luck to you all - I KNOW you will see FANTASTIC, Fab-You-Loss results. Don't ever give up, keep this in your mind that you CAN & WILL do this & KNOW you will look even better when you are done :flowerforyou:

    I have the 30DS dvd and I have had it for months. On day one I was only able to do 10 minutes if level one. It kicked my @$$. Day 2, 13 minutes of level one. Has anybody else have this issue by not being able to get through the 1st level at all in the first 2 or 3 days?

    BTW I am going to retry this. I dont have measurments yet but I will get them.

    Day 1 done!

    Starting weight: 109.2
    waist - 27 (goal 26)
    hips - 33.5 (goal 32)
    thigh - 21 (goal 20)
    bicep - 10.5 (no loss needed, will even take a gain there!)


    Did it at about 5:30 AM with 3 lb weights all the way through, no stopping, modifying moves ONLY on the second set of pushups (I put my knees down for the second set).

    However, I never work out in the morning on an empty stomach and I do NOT like it. I think I will stick to the afternoons. I feel nauseas. I usually have a nice breakfast before work, egg whites and multigrain toast, or oats with fruit...now I feel like I don't want to eat! But I know I have to or work will suck.

    Im in :)

    My Starting weight is 144.5lbs

    Chest - 39
    U/neath Chest - 34
    Upper waist - 33
    Lower waist - 37
    Hips - 38
    R thigh - 22.5
    L thigh - 22

    I've taken some before pics but im not too sure how to add them.

    Im going to aim to do this every day... I have started the shred many times and get to about day 18 and stop. I think its because level 3 terrifies me. I have actually tried level 3 now. I got up the other day and stuck it on and its not as bad as i imagined (hard but no where near as scary as I thought) and I completed it so Im confident this time round i will be able to stick to it. Please feel free to add me as a friend and hound me if i dont check in lol ;) xx

    I just finished todays work out on L3 and man it was hard bc I haven't done it in 3 days. It is so much easier when you do it everyday! I hope this challenge motivates me to stick with it 7 days a week! I mean seriously its 20 min. Im done making excuses for myself.

    I also used my elliptical afterwards.
    My weight today is 180.5 I haven't done any measurements yet.

    Hope everyone else is having a good first day!

    I just completed Day 1, Level 1 and I didn't die!! Honestly, ladies... if it hadn't been for this group, I probably would have slept in this morning and not done it. I'm so glad you were all here to motivate me to get out of bed and sweat. :)

    But, I agree with robin52077 - AM workouts are not for me, afternoons are better for this gal

    How'd everyone else do today?

    BTW - if you are just starting or are already into it, you can definitely join! The more the merrier.

    I did Day 1/Level 1 a few hours ago. It was challenging but not impossible to me. I have to buy a tape measure some time today. I will post that info tomorrow. Starting weight is 166(but I was told I wouldn't see a lot of pounds dropping because of this but more inches). I'm also starting a distance walking training program on Monday so that should cover the pounds! Hope everyone else gets it in today! :-)
