    l1D10 done today and actually finally managed 7 (yes a whopping 7!) jumping jacks- but even with the enell sports bra the girls got the better of me in the end and nearly knocked me out

    Well day 11, first day of level 2 done...OMG, WTF...just as i'd stopped dripping with sweat and got comfy with level 1 it's back to square 1 with this, it was HARD, felt my legs and arms burning, those V-shape arm lift things were a killer!!

    If i don't see any improvement at the end of 30 days I will be shocked, peed off and soooooo upset, lol!!

    Day 14 done, level 2. Noticed some loose skin on my inner arms this evening, which while it shows that something is happening, is not altogether attractive, and certainly not part of the transformation into a goddess process I had in mind. Meanwhile the belly continues to wobble around. Not presenting myself very well here, am I? :laugh:

    L1D9 done. Definitely goes by faster, although it's still tough.

    Done with day 14 (level 2 day 4). I don't like planks and V raises. Noticing more definition in my legs though ... this time in upper leg near my knee.

    Day 15 level 2 done. I fear I'm sounding very boring. What news today? I do notice a difference in the mirror, in the middle region. Starting to feel slightly and cautiously pleased! :smile:

    Oh thank God you've said you're seeing a difference to your mid section, i was beginning to despair that it was all for nothing, i was doing it wrong and it was killing myself for nothing!!

    You guys are scaring me! I finished L1 tonight and I'll be starting L2 tomorrow. I did the Biggest Loser Weight Loss Yoga warm up and level 1 today, and the planks were hard enough on that...I can only wonder how hard 30DS's is going to be!

    I am however very happy I am done with L1. I really liked it! :)

    completed D1 level 2 of 30ds- my style is well- ummm- highly modified - and I officially despise the "plank"position- which I cannot do- it's more of a bizarre plank downward facing dog when I do it- oh well

    my mid section is improving though - I noticed it this morning when lying in bed starting to wake up that the edges of my belly didn't sag quite so far over and my waist looks longer- cause I have more of a waist before my belly curves into my hips- if that makes any sense

    I'm guessing in a couple of days you will start to see something too. I'm trying very hard to be objective when I look in the mirror, but now, finally, I can really see a little difference. So yes, keep going! It will all be worth it in the end!

    Just to let you know, JeninBelgium, I love reading your posts! It can be strange posting here, because it's like sending a letter to Santa - it goes off into the ether and you never really know if anyone else has read it, let alone what they think! So I just thought I would say thanks for making me chuckle! :laugh:

    Wow! I've done day 16 ... I even managed jumping in the plank position today. Will have to take a day off tomorrow though - family obligations.

    Completed day 15 (level 2 day 5) ... halfway through! Whoo hoo!

    I can definitely feel a difference in my belly when I'm lying down, and I can tell the bulge of my love handles is getting smaller.

    Day 13 done for me too. 3rd day of level 2. I feel like I sweat about 10lbs by the time I've finished it! Lol.

    Nearly at the half way point.

    Managed to squeeze in day 17 this evening after a busy day (including a family do where I seriously exceeded my calorie allowance :frown: ). BUT ... wonders will never cease ... my partner noticed a difference today!!! No change whatsoever on the scales, but I'm learning that ultimately it isn't the scales that matter.

    L2D2 done. Sweated like crazy. Ahh. Those planks are deadly. I think I took about three or four of those five-second breaks.

    I know totally what you mean - my day 2 will only be today- I should have done it yesterday but knew that we would be out with a friend and his two kids (ages 5 and 8) we don't have kids so wasn't sure how much stamina I would need- as our day's planning involved the park/open air museum

    L2 D3 completed.

    Note to self: Doing the 34-minute Biggest Loser Last Chance Workout on the same day as the 30 Day Shred is not a good idea. I love Jillian but the intensity is just too much.

    Ladies doing the Shred, feel free to add me if you want! :)
