    Did L2 D7 last night... I have Jillian's Yoga Meltdown and thought I would alternate that with another round of The Shred. But, I have heard great things about Ripped in 30. I am still undecided. Too many choices!!! LOL :tongue:

    I'm actually looking forward to Level 3 I sat and watched the other day. The only thing I wish is she didn't speak as much. LOL It breaks my focus and plus after the 5th time you've done it you can recite what she says.

    I'll be doing Level 2 Day 3 & 4 today. I'm doing it twice cux I'm behind.

    I completely agree. I now turn the tv volume almost all the way down and turn on the radio that way i can enjoy what i'm hearing. I think if i hear " phoning it in" one more time my head may explode

    i am on day 15, i have gotten a little behind. I somehow damaged my ankles i think from the level 2 videos although i do not recall at any point being in pain. I do the modified plank jacks and plant thrusts so it could not have been those. Three days ago i just woke up and my left ankle is swollen and very tender. wore a slip on brace thing yesterday, it did not seem to help. I took one day off from the video and then continued. Still swollen and sore but i dont want to stop for too long, afraid i will lose my motivation.

    there is an option on the dvd menu to turn off her voice and just listen to her music. As much as she irritates me I leave her voice on so that I know when to move on.

    I tweaked my ankle pretty badly over the weekend and had to take a couple days off. Now, I'm behind. But, I did do L2 D8 last night without it flaring up again. I'm now back on track!

    I didn't know that but I've tried using just music but then I don't know when to move on either, there isn't a timer like TurboFire or Insanity.

    As for what I'm going to do next is the Ripped in 30 series and her JM NMTZs added into it hopefully 3xs a week.

    Yesterday I got in Level 2 Day 4 ( couldn't day five also because I was having problems breathing...thought I was going to throw up a few times. But I powered through the workout, but realized I might need to slowly increase the number of workouts again.)

    MermaidFaith - Glad you ankle is holding up and feeling better.

    I did Level 2 day 5, I'm still recuperating I guess, that and I need to eat more. I was again out of breath, a couple of times I had to put my head down or I would have passed out.

    WTH! I know it's hotter here this week than last, but really, this is getting to me a bit :mad:
    I will workout again later this evening; if I can. I don't want to push it and hurt myself or get sick again. Thanks for listening to me vent. :smile:

    Level 3, day 2...day 22...

    Anyone else feel like throwing up at the end of this one? By the time I'm doing the sit-ups I feel nauseous. I think Jillian is trying to kill me!!

    oh great! i'm scared now! two more days till i get to level 3!

    I replied to this yesterday...wonder what happened to it??

    anyhow, didn't mean to scare anyone, if you you made to level 3 you will be fine. It is more challenging, but it's what we wanted, right?? I've been feeling a bit stressed this week, thinking the stress and the new routine is what is making me feel nauseous or maybe it's just "fear leaving the body"!!!! :laugh:

    There is another 30 day Shred group. Has anyone read the thread? They said Jillian had a podcast that said she never meant for anyone to do this every day. I better see results on Thanksgiving morning, because I feel like I've been killing myself!!!

    well im not sure if you telling us about the pod cast was a good thing, because it motivated me to take the weekend off from the video! Ha! my ankles needed some rest anyway, and i definately didnt splurge on eating over the weekend, so i'm ok with it. tomorrow i will be doing day nine of level 2. i think its the jarring from jumping that is bothering my ankles, but i'll live!

    Seems like only 5 or 6 of us are even still following this thread... i wonder how many people have given up?

    (Sorry, to have unmotivated you, it certainly wasn't my intention.)

    Maybe they just aren't posting, sure hope they haven't given up. I can hardly wait to see everyone's results. I'm going to take measurements Thursday morning!! And then will continue on with the Shred but do a different level each time.
