Hi everyone,
I am starting the 30 day shred today and was wondering who else has done it and if you had good results. Any reviews?

    I have been doing 30 day Shred for about 2 weeks. I have noticed that my jeans are fitting a little looser. I will be doing Day 3 of Level 2 tomorrow. You can do this!

    A bit of advice, Jillian has stated that it is NOT meant to be done everyday, but lots of people think they need to do it for 30 days straight. Many people, myself included experienced knee pain when doing it everyday, it's jsut too high impact for some. You always need a rest day. I combined 30 DS 3x a week with walking and had great results. My butt is more firm and a bit nicer, my legs got amazingly toned and my arms as well. You'll see results for sure!

    My husband is on his way home from Walmart with mine. I cannot wait. I have been doing Jillians 6 weeks to a 6 pack and butt and things. I love her workouts. Hoping the 30 Day Shred is as successful for me as I have seen it has been for others.

    I think I lost about 5 pounds the first time I did the 30 day shred. If you can get in some walking in your day too, you may see better results. The weeks I was able to walk for 20-30 minutes in addition to the video I lost more weight. I lost inches too, I could tell by my clothes, but I didnt measure myself. I suggest taking measurements! I stopped before the holidays because of lack of time and effort, but I just started back today. It feels good!

    @amkelley - Do you have a resource you can share which explains how to properly measure yourself?

    This is my 3rd attempt. 1st and 2nd I stopped both bc I got really sick. So I am now on 30DS L1D5. I feel a difference in my abs. Looking forward to seeing what day 10 brings.

    It's excellent! I did it last summer and I lost inches and weight. I am currently doing it again right now I am on Day 5 of Level 2.

    If this is your first time...your first 3 days will be the toughest. Push through it, even if you can't sit down or walk down stairs properly after the second day. That soreness you will feel is from working hard and pushing yourself. That soreness will pass as you get stronger. Have fun with it.

    Just Shred It!

    I just bought this at the grocery store on Friday and was planning to start yesterday, but I'm sick with a sinus infection. Let us know how it goes!

    I did day 1 yesterday and my ankle is killing me! However, I did sprain it about 2 months ago... I am taking a rest day today and will see how I feel later... I may just go to the gym tomorrow morning and do the elliptical instead. I will tell you this... you may not feel sore right after you do the video, but BOY do I feel it today! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to keep going with it but I am afraid my ankle is not strong enough for the impact (she has you doing alot of jumping-jacks, jump rope (without the rope), and kick-backs - which there is NO way I can do!)

    Any advice from those who have done it... What can I "sub" in for the cardio parts that I cannot do because of my ankle?

    I just started mine today. It is a butt kicker!! I have done all sorts of workouts, including P90x.. this one is FANTASTIC!! I was sweating like crazy about half way through!! To answer one of the questions on here...all you need is weights and a mat (if you are on a hard floor).
