    I am on day 5 of Shred and love it.. already noticing a difference but I won't officially do my measurements for another 5 days. I log it in as general circuit training but I also do 30-60 min cardio on top of 30DS. I use 2lb dumb bells, however I am thinking about increasing the weight to 4 or 5lbs.

    I just finished the 10th day of 30 Day Shred. The first 2-3 days were hard and I definitely felt it the next day. I did noticed my thighs were more toned just after !0 days so I measured and I have lost 1/2 inch on each!!! YAY! I used 5 lb weights but you can also use 3 lb wieghts. I am starting level 2 tomorrow, I will probably be soar all over again. I also run at least 3 miles 6 days a week and continued to do that even through the 10 days I did 30 DS. I have not noticed any addtional weight loss than just the regular 1lb a week I've been losing, Good Luck!

    OK, count me in...I tried the shred a while back and just couldn't get into it. Now I've lost a few pounds and I know I'm in better shape so maybe I can handle it better.

    I will continue to go to the gym 5 or so days a week...

    My suggestion is to take your measurement and take skin revealing pictures before you start it that way you can see a difference at the end. I have down all three levels but not for 30 days. When you think you have mastered level 1 move on to level 2 and so on. Sometimes I do level 1 and 2 together. I have 5 lbs weights but if you haven't been using weights you might want to start off with 3 or 4 lbs. You will be sore but it is a good sore the next day. For me it was my thighs but others have complained about their arms. Just give it 100% and keep pushing it. Have your water close by and remote so you can hit pause. I do it when I can't go to the gym. You will be cursing Jillian out. But I can see a difference in me and it is totally worth it! I do notice that my knees are sore from the squats. Make sure your form is right. Good luck! I'm sending you a friend request.

    I bought the 30 day shred a while ago. I am going to use it everyday this month. I did a challenge last month to workout for 24 hours, but I didn't meet it. So I am doing that again this month, plus the 30 day shred everyday.

    Started 30 day shred yesterday 4/30/11. Day 1 was much easier than today day 2. I was really sore. Added you as a friend, Can't wait to see how everyone else does. Started with 5 lbs weights. Plan on doing 30 day shred before work and hitting the gym after work........ we will see how it goes! Best of luck to everyone!
