I am loving all these butt shots! I wish I had thought to take a pic from the back before I started. What a difference!

As far as taking breaks, I will pause the DVD for a few second to drink water throughout the workout. I can't go that long without it.

I also do modified versions of some of the exercises. Like the rock star jumps in level 3 - OMG!! They kill me! I'm right there with Anita on those things.

Here are my results:

Started March 16
Bust: 34
Waist: 30.5
Hips: 39
Weight:140

Completed on April 18
Bust: 33 - a loss of 1 inch
Waist: 28 - a loss of 2.5 inches
Hips: 37 - a loss of 2 inches
Weight: 132.6 - a loss of 7.4 lbs

I wish I would have taken some other measurements like arms/legs/neck, but that hadn't really occured to me before I started.

I am 5'6" - and the 30DS was really the only workout I was following. I did 10 days at each level with a few rest days spread out here and there. Wasn't doing any other extra exercises, etc. I was following a 1200 calorie diet as well.

Black suit is BEFORE and Zebra suit is AFTER.

Please can I have your "before" body?? Lol. I'm the same height as you and struggling to get to 147lbs!!

Hi guys, just wondering. Do you do some extra workouts while doing the 30 day shred?! I was wondering If I should do some extra exercise! I'm already on the 6th day of level 1 and Lost 2 pounds!! .

I started day 1 level 1 today and it whooped my *kitten*! I cried, I laughed, I yelled at Jillian. But now sitting here, after Ive cooled down, I feel so refreshed. I knew this wasn't going to be easy, but its so worth it. Ive looked through this entire post reading all your stories and seeing all your before and afters! I so can't wait until this time next month to upload my b/a pix! and measurments. You all inspire me so much. Thank you ladies. And keep up your great work!!!

I don't. I just do the workout DVD in the morning and that's it for me. I will occasionally do a 1-mile walk around the park if I have time in the afternoon. That has been plenty of exercise for me.

@ holyseamonkeys...I occasionally will go walking or swimming, but other than that no:) If you have the time and energy I say go for it!

Thank you so much for posting those pictures!! I also have strech marks from my two kids and I never seem to loose weight in my belly! Your progress pictures gives me new motivation! Thank you so much!!

KOlmert

Great idea!!

I did it for 30 consecutive days (which I still can't believe I didn't miss a day!!). I also did the C25K program three times a week, and Zumba twice a week. As well as some biking and walking in there, too.

I lost 5.5 lbs, 3" off my waist and 3.5" off my hips.





I don't have photos from Day 1 of my back, but here's Day 10 (after Level 1)

Thank you so much for posting your pictures! You have given me new motivation! I have a ton of stretch marks from my two pregnancys and I never seem to lose weight im my belly! I am just going to keep working at it! Thank you!!!

i just started this today and i did the level 1. Can anyone give me any advice as when to start level 2 or 3. Or should i just alternate on a daily basis. I plan to do this every day.. I am pretty much at my goal, but need to tone up.
