    I did not work out yesterday, My baby , my mom and I we're walking and doing little shopping in the mall. It's been late when we got home and am so tired. i think i burned around 580 cals. I will do my day 6 and 7 week 2 tonight, so that i can move on with week 3 by tomorrow.

    Well, I'm a little embarrassed to come back here after taking a week off for illness, family vacation, and my sudden on take of a symptom called lethargy. But I don't want to quit and even if I'm ridiculously behind, I still need everyone's motivation. As long as I'm willing to keep going I suppose it's okay. Finally completed day 7 of level one. And if level two isn't a huge doozie, I'll try to squeeze in some extras to erase some of the shame of my fallback :) Great job everyone for killing it!!!

    After all the good things said about Week 3, I can't wait to get there!

    I just finished up Week 2 Day 5. Only I'm subbing Week 2 with Shred It with Weights Level 1 because all that planking is too hard on my wrists.

    So far I've lost 3lbs and 6.25 inches! It's working!

    You are absolutely getting something out of it! Think of it this way, you are NOT sitting around doing nothing! There are going to be days that you are not going to be able to put out as much effort, and days that you are going to be a Rock Star!
    Hang in there and remember that is what this thread is for............Encouragement and Support! You are gonna make it! Keep up the great work!!!! Think Positive!!! You can do anything you put your mind to! Believe in yourself!

    D2 W2 Done. I just feel like I can't do it. I can't do some of the moves even close to as many times as the dvd (even modified). I just don't tink I am getting anything out of it. Anyone else feel this way?

    You are getting something out of it!!!!! It just takes time. Just do the BEST that you can and keep pushing. These are some hard moves -- Jillian says so herself. And the fact that you are trying and showing up every day is what matters. I know how hard it is to be patient -- I have ZERO patience. But I couldn't do a full pushup 7 weeks ago and now I'm learning how to do crow pushups.... It's progress, not perfection. Don't give up!!!! We're here for you!!!! Just whine to us!!!! We understand. :)

    Did Day 1 of Week 3 today!
    OMG it's a killer! My lower legs felt like they were going to melt. Normally I watch the dvd through before I start a new week so I know what to expect but because I have been having one rest day (saturday) and therefore trying to make up the full 7 days of each week I just didn't get chance to watch it so did it 'blind' this morning.
    :/ I did have to take a couple of 5 second breaks but I am still alive now although I bet my form is dreadful!
    Has anyone found their weightloss/inchloss has stalled? I did 30DS before this and it kind of stalled after the 2nd week but I thougt Ripped might have kick started it all again

    I do the same way too, sort of memorizing the moves before doing it. It make a lot easier when I workout since we've been changing moves every-week. btw day 6 and 7 week 2 complete.

    I'm glad you're back. Good luck for the week 2. Just make sure you are completely recovered before starting. It is challenging but I know you can do it. Not a big fan of doing mountain climbers and planks jacks back to back for 2 minutes. glad i'm done with week 2. getting scared to week3.

    Somehow I really hurt my right knee day before yesterday. I rested yesterday but it's still super achy and a bit swollen. :( I hate getting "behind" but it looks like another day off is in order. :( Just when I started feeling like I was on a good roll. Sigh.

    We're glad you're here! I'm way behind too cause of Thanksgiving and now hurting my knee. It doesn't matter what day or level or week you're on -- just do your best and stick with us! We're all doing what we can....


    @dreamz49---the same goes for you. Just start....don't worry about being "behind"

    D2 W2 Done. I just feel like I can't do it. I can't do some of the moves even close to as many times as the dvd (even modified). I just don't tink I am getting anything out of it. Anyone else feel this way?

    With some of the plank moves, i can do it for a certain extent then I just do regular pushups-something I couldn't before
    With the bridge ab- I do what I can then do crunches or situps.

    Those are the only two I can think of offhand that I have trouble with.

    W3D4, is done. This was a tough day as well. Jillian definitely knows what she is doing and I am loving the results! Have to try and get another evening in with cardio.

    Forgot to check in yesterday, but I did D1W3 yesterday and just finished D2W3 today. Week 3 is really hard for me, I have a bad knee (no cartilidge in my right knee). I can't physically do that duck walk, but I try and by the end of the workout my knee is so shaky and weak. But, I'm giving it all I have and then some! Let's keep it up guys, we are all rocking this whether we think so or not!!

    Week 3 Day 1 Done! UGH week 3 is a killer I hate duck walk and jumping lunges!!! I had to do a lot of the beginner modifications which made me feel like I didn't get as good of a workout though and slacked a little :/ I definitely want to try and push harder tomorrow!
