    gd50cent: I invited my husband to try 30DS with me last night-- and it was a no go. He said he wouldn't want to embarass me by beasting through the workout but I believe he was a little intimidated by the fact that Jillian's calf muscles are bigger than his head. LOL.

    lol! u should challenge him. if he's competitive like me he wont be able to resist. bet him that he cant even do it for a week never mind 30 days and see what he says. i've never done anything like this before and i'm on 11 days straight now. if i can do it then so can he, or anyone!

    less of the excuses mr anderson! :tongue:

    I'm on L1D3 today. I did the Shred last summer and really could never get through Level 2 - all those planks & such I have no upper arm strength. Hopefully this go round I will be able to do it :)

    I did L1 D8 yesterday. I love it but I yell at Jillian everyday and can recite everything in Level 1 from beginning to end.

    hey everyone!! how's it going??
    are most people on here doing 10 days on each level? if not when did you go up to the next level? :)
    L1D4 :)

    hey aly

    yep, 10 days each level for me. first day of level 2 today and i didnt find it easy so i'm glad i put in the full 10 days on level 1. i guess it depends on fitness levels etc but for me i think if i'd moved to level 2 too early i'd have regretted it. yes it might be boring doing the same thing day in day out etc but its only 20 mins of intensity without much chance of a break so i dont really have time to catch my breath and feel bored.

    you could always watch level 2 and se what u think. i avoided looking at it until i started it today in case it put me off! lol.

    'last 30 seconds- i want you floating off the ground right now! coz you're strong! THIS IS EASY FOR YOU! NOTHIN YOU CAN'T DO!!!!'

    Pisses me off too. Especial when she said they're doing it with us and we're all in the same boat together... I'm thinking "Girl I'm 209lbs, you're nowhere in the same boat as me" lol....

    Started lvl 1 yesterday! It was a lot of fun, just what I needed. My other workouts were getting boring. A lot of the moves seemed pretty easy to me so I may step it up to lvl 2!

    Thanks! I have to see if on demand has all levels or make a trip to wal mart. It's only 20 minutes, I can suffer through that for 30 days. I think;)

    Alright ladies, let's do this!!! I am going to start today since I don't have to run today and I need some exercise.

    When is everyone else starting?

    Those who have already started, how was your first day?

    I started this yesterday and am feeling it today in my thighs. This is the first time I have joined a group for anything on here (I am fairly new to the site and still learning) so is there anything I need to do? Shoot me an email if you do not mind if I need to do anything?
  • L1D7 done!! Only 3 more days of level 1!!!! And the major plus even tho I've gone up 2 pounds I have lost 6 inches in the past week!

    I have bought the 30DS from iTunes and will start it this weekend. I have to first buy the adaptor to connect my ipad to the TV. I can't wait though, really looking forward to it. I love the idea that it is only about 20-25 minutes a day... I always feel too time crunched to do an hour workout.

    Day 8 Lv 1 done today! Two more days until Lv 2, heh, I'm a little nervous. Level 1 is finally feeling like it flies on by, and now I've got to get used to something new. I want these inches GONE though before I fly to the UK next month. Nothing like sitting on a plane, transatlantic, feeling like your *kitten* is hanging into your neighbor's seat. :huh:

    Did Level 1 Day 5 today... I'm not sore at all anymore! Yay!
    I really shouldn't have bought the 5lb weights, because the side lunges with arm raises are killing me when I'm doing them!
    It seems to be going faster though! And it's getting a little easier, but I still can't do push-ups lol.

    i just got the dvd three days ago.. did the L1 for two days and although it was tough it wasn't enough... well I did L2 today and sheeesh..I think I'll stick to that for now. I'm too scared to even look at L3...hehe. please tell me it gets easier... :P
  • Level 1 day 3. I HATE jumping jacks and jump rope!! Other than that I am happy with it.

    L1D10 just finished. Starting L2 tomorrow. I've been measuring my waist and my thigh and no change yet. No change in the scale either. But, my pants did feel a little looser the past couple days. Also, my calves are TIGHT. There is a is a cut under the calf muscle on the back of the leg, and one running on the outside of the leg, parallel to the shin. Even when I was thin in my teens and early 20s I never had any definition. Also, my arms feel tighter. No definition yet, but I think I may be losing some of the under arm jiggle.
    Everything in the middle has stayed the same, at least visually. The muscles are forming under there, it'll just take a little while longer to find them.

    Take a hot bath, it will help with your soreness. I did my 2nd day of exercise today with the 30 day shred and could hardly sit down or get up I was so sore. Took a hot bath tonight and feel and move so much easier. I am still sore, it is not a miracle cure but it does not hurt as much and I can move without moaning every step of the way (literally) LOL!! Good luck with it.
