    I would LOVE to be a part of this if I can! I just started the shred yesterday! I would love to be doing this workout along with other people! I have about 25 lbs to lose. Good luck everyone!!
    Welcome!! You are right on time! Most of us started day 1 on Monday so you are right there with us! There are a few people that started early, as well as a few that are starting late! No matter what day we are on we will all need motivation for the next day! Good luck!!!

    I definitely can use the motivation. This is awesome that so many are joining! This workout has been somewhat hard for me and at times I almost want to give up. But knowing there are so many others doing this workout really helps motivate me!!
    I know what you mean! I thought with it being 20 minutes that it wouldn't be that bad, but there are times in it that I don't know if I will make it through! You just gotta PUSH! I am super sore today and i've only done 2 days!

    I know how you feel. Today will make my 3rd day on Level 1. I was so sore yesterday I had to lay on my heating pad :( I know that the pain of this will be worth it in the end!!

    I keep hearing that everyone is really sore. Try doing extra stretching at the end. After Day 1 my glutes were KILLING me. So I added glute streches after the cooldown and I really think it helped.

    Now, my problem is my dang shins kill me when doing the jumping jacks, butt kicks and jump rope. But they also tend to hurt me when I run. I dont think we are talking shin splint pain, but it does hurt. My doc suggested I take an Aleve before I work out to cut down on the imflamation. Maybe I will try that. I hate taking drugs unless I really have to. Anyone else have that pain?

    Hey there fellow shredders!

    Finished D3L1 today and I added some plyometerics to the mix after the workout-- you know, just to help things along a bit!

    Funny, I figured that I was in pretty good shape ... apparently not!

    I made sure to take pictures of myself yesterday so that when we all finish, we can show each other our successes!

    Have a great day!

    I would love to join, but I don't have the money for this dvd right now. What is it exactly?

    30 Day Shred is a workout DVD by Jillian Michaels (trainer from the Biggest Loser). It's a 30 day system that changes every 10 days. It's brutal - and high intensity, but it's short (20-25ish minutes). All you need is some light handweights and the DVD (sells for
    $10-15).
    I'm really hoping to be able to stick with it for the 30 days.

    You CAN do it!!! I am gonna be hating it, but I just have to think of that end result. As annoying as Jillians voice is, she is right when she's talking about how we have to work hard if we want results!

    omg I have to agree Her voice is very annoying I have to turn it down when I do it.

    Mine are hurting too. I just thought I needed to get used to it though cause I am new to all this working out stuff.

    I also took before pictures. I am also incorporating walking and doing a fat burner on the treadmill. So I hope to really be getting fit here quickly. Looking forward to seeing some results. I also have to take a few rests while doing it. I sweat my booty off too. I am hoping it gets more bearable closer to being done. Fingers crossed.
