    Just finished Day 4 of Level 1. I was able to keep up with Natilie more tonight. I still need to do girl push ups. I was grunting tonight. My arms and legs were screaming at me. But it hurt SOOOO good...And to think I almost skipped tonight. But I knew ya'll were counting on me. ;)



    P.S. Someone I haven't seen in a couple of weeks asked me if I've lost weight today...I almost kissed her. It was my 1st "have you lost weight" comment since I began this journey March 24.

    Today I was thinking about skipping because I am hung over... lol. BAD! But seeing that you did it when you were thinking about skipping makes me want to get it done. Thanks. I think I couldn't do it without this group.

    and i can't wait for someone to notice my weight loss! Good for you.

    I just started Level 3 today. I haven't lost a lot either (only have 40lbs to lose total) but lemme tell you my first day level 3 was quite a bit harder than level 1 and 2. I felt like 1 and 2 weren't a huge stretch. Funny because I like some of the level 3 exercises best but wowsa I had trouble getting through it. Hopefully by day 5 I'll be better. By 10 I'll be expert... ha yeah right! I can dream.

    I have done the 30 Day Shred with great results (inch wise but only lost a few pounds) and am starting Ripped in 30 on Monday. Does anyone know how approximately how many calories are burned with these work outs?

    dont know about Ripped, but i burn about 175 calories with lvl1 of the shred. i am 159lbs 5'5

    you are on a roll Sugar! You must feel great.
    I didnt do too well today. only did 14 minutes of it half assed pace... I am thinking drinking was a bad idea last night and wont be doing it again for at least a month. Was not worth giving up all thise calories and my workout. :( Live and learn

    Day five done. Three quick things:

    1. My modified push-ups are getting much easier.
    2. I find it EXTREMELY condescending when Jillian and the advanced back-up girl laugh at the beginning of the workout when they tell the viewer that if they stick with the video their body will look like hers (is that like a "yeah, right!" type joke? really?)
    3. I want to kick Jillian in the face at the end when she says "'Cuz you strong!" like I'm some farm animal pushing a plow.

    Mmm. Can't wait til tomorrow! X-D

    Secretly, when I do the punches..I aim towards their heads. haha

    I did Day 5 today but have to confess that I was dreading doing the same video again so I did level 2 instead!! Level 2 is definitely more interesting that the first level and the cardio challenges me quite a bit more. I'm not eating all that great what with all the Easter treats around so am not too sure if I am getting many results right now. Tomorrow I'll get back to healthy eating!

    Well, you all have motivated me to get Jillians 30 Day Shred!!! I have been taking kickboxing classes at a local studio, and I was looking for something to suppliment my workouts, since the studio isn't open every day. I am planning on starting on Monday, so I will be a little bit behind you guys. Hope you dont mind if I tag along!!! :-)

    5 days of the shred complete, and I dread to get at it again this morning. However, I always feel soo good once the workouts finished so I know I got to keep going. I have 2 small kids here, so the minute one goes down for a nap I get at it, otherwise I don't get a chance. My 3 year old watches and works out with me and says 'its a hard workout momma." LOL! And he will say "You're doing good! Don't stop!!!" What a little motivator he is! Anyway, here goes day 6. Keep up the good work everyone!

    I have completed day 6. I actually used my 3 pound weights during the cardio punching. That made it feel like I was really doing something.
    Today will be a tough day. We have a family gathering so it will be lots of all the wrong foods. Gotta find that willpower.

    When I did it last night, the side lunges did not seem at hard as they used to.
    And I don't know if it's just in my head, but my arms do seem to be getting more defined muscles lol. yey

    Completed day 5 yesterday after work, I was soooo happy - I think it may be getting a little easier and I'm able to keep up better. Have a crazy bad cold and hoping this won't stop me today. Reading all the posts is so inspiring....I'll do it today no matter what!!!!
    Keep up all that good work!!!

    Just did day 6, level 1 and finished off with a little jog!! My first week tracking my food and exercise was very frustrating. I actually gained weight, but I am not giving up. I am going to tighten up and get through this.

    I skipped yesterday and feel like I cheated. But I am going to do it twice today. Once this morning and again tonight. Then I will be caught up.
