    What pound weights is everyone using? I go between 2, 5, and 10 depending on the exercise, but should I just stick with one? Also, how are you recording this? I don't want to over or underestimate. I did light/moderate calesthenics but only got 107 (or something like that) calories. The vigorous effort put me over 300. I just want to be as accurate as possible.

    Okay so I woke up this morning saying I'd do it after Daniel went off to work. Daniel went off to work about 10:30 am.

    So here I am piddling around doing this and that. I look at the clock and it's 2 pm already. Good lord I should have gotten off my hiney and done it way before now I think to myself. So I did. I popped in the DVD and immediately I'm thinking "okay let's see how bad it's going to be"

    Well. it wasn't horrible. The jumping jacks weren't all that bad. Butt kicks - well I'm far from kicking my *kitten* with my foot. Lunges and crunches - Those seemed alright. I can feel the burn in my stomach and legs mostly upper thigh area. I suppose that's a good thing. I even did the push up's. Could never actually do girl push up's though only the regular kind.

    I don't like Anita though. Why? Oh I dunno because she reminds me way to much of Sarah (Daniel's ex wife) and goodness knows there's enough drama going on there with her that I don't think necessary to go into. All the same, I plan to look better than that girl. Anita and Sarah! So ha.. and ha to you JM! I got through Day 1 and I survived!

    I see you all are kicking some butt!

    Have a great rest of the day/night!

    I am using 3Lbs throughout the whole time - and think I will DIE if I increase the weights now.... Maybe later.

    I log it in as 25 mins circuit training - gives me about 240 cals I believe.... i have the Body Fit, and actually need to use it next time to track the exact amout.

    Ok, so I just wanted to say that - curiosity got me, and I did check out pics of my lovely fellow Shredders, and I muts say that some of you look AWESOME already !! I can only imagine how more defined and ripped you will look in 30 Days ! And for me - cant WAIT for my transformation to bring me closer to look like some of you gorgeous ladies !

    And I love it how some of you were brave enough to take pictures in your underwear - that's what I had originally wanted to do - but chickened out.....

    Oh, and am I the only dingbat to take an "after workout" pic ??? :laugh:

    Ok, I will stop obsessing and stalking now.

    Well that was certainly an experience lol!! I was right to be scared!

    I've just had a very long, hot, rubbish day at work, 6 and a half hours in a hot kitchen running round after people and I came home to Jillian Michaels and her 20 minutes of pain. I was already aching when I got home from work and now everything aches, I even have a headache.

    Oh well, at least I've burned 268 calories according to my HRM, which incidentally was beeping madly at me through most of the cardio sections for going over my maximum target heartrate :embarassed:

    Well I'm off to bed, see you all tomorrow!!

    I decided not to use the weights my first time, but tomorrow Im going to use 2 pound ones for the 1st week and 3 pound ones for the other days

    ok, call me crazy, but i just did the workout again:noway: ! There is a reason: running 5k in the early am and i dont want to miss a day and due to football tommorow, my drinking will probably start right after my run, lol, leaving no time for 30DS. So, day 2 down for me! I:wink::wink: did them 6 hours apart and my body feels like jello. We can and will do this! you guys rock!:smooched: :smooched:

    I am using 5 pound dumbells which is real tough for me during side lunges and are lifts :explode:

    I did 30DS d1L1 today and I really liked it.
    I also ran a tough 3 miles and then stretched with some yoga.
    I kicked my butt for sure.
