    It took me 2-3 months, but it was worth it and I dropped the lbs after those months. I gradually started increasing my work out time and/or calories burned each week.

    i would imagine that your body is alot firmer and tighter than you are allowing your self to notice! hang in there!
    30DS rocks! (Jillian's 6 week 6 pack Ab is a killer workout too).
    Good luck!

    If you are doing 30 DS then you are building muscle and they are holding onto water to recover. Don't give up!! If I were you I would measure myself and then measure again in a few weeks and I bet you will see the difference! Good luck!!

    Keep in mind that you see yourself every day. You see yourself change. I lost 70 lbs and I saw NO change in my figure, but people who saw me a few days a week or hadn't seen me in months were making comments to friends/family about it.

    Just know that anything you do today is making a change to yourself for the future.

    You may not notice the changes but I guarantee that it's there.

    Although the scale might night be moving, also make sure that you're checking your measurements. I've noticed that although the scale has gone down slow and steady, I've lost inches almost everywhere (4 inches alone on my waistline!). Don't get too focused on the scale itself. Another way to gauge is how your clothes fit and if you notice your body becoming more toned.

    Keep it up! It takes time :)

    A wiser person then me told me when I posted the same question about 30 days into my journey:

    "I didn't put it on in a month. I won't see it fall off in a month"

    Its about determination. Don't give up. We are here for you ^.^

    LIke digital says. I still don't see the change in my own body, but at christmas time my entire family was baffled by the 20 pds I had lost. Had all sorts of questions how I had done it.

    Good luck on your journey!

    I've been doing 30 DS and am on day 15 and have only lost 1 pound. It's very discouraging! I feel your pain. I think maybe I'm not doing enough cardio. If more cardio doesn't work, I'm going to stop eating my exercise calories. Stick with it. Its a tough series. It must be doing something beneficial.

    I started power walking in September, but I was not really paying any attention to what I was eating. When I started logging about 90% of what I eat, and trying my best to stay within range, I started seeing results after 4-6 weeks.

    The scale had not moved much, but I'm losing inches and my clothes are fitting better.

    Don't give up, tell yourself you will complete the 30 days, you'll be pleasantly surprised.
