    Day 5 complete - I am starting to feel great!

    I'm new to this so a little nervous, I'm starting the 30ds on Monday but also going to do Hip Hop Abs as well, going to do this for 6 days in a row then rest for 1 then carry on.

    Currently my measurements are:

    Hips - 44"
    Arm - 14"
    Thigh - 26.5"
    Waist - 35"
    Weight - 179lbs
    Height - 5ft 9ins

    Has anyone tried the 30ds along with hip hop abs? I want to loose approx 30lbs for September, If I keep exercising like this does anyone think I'll reach my goal? Plus I want my thighs to get down to 23", would this be a realistic goal?

    Plus if anyone would like to add me as a friend and start this with me on Monday that'd be great - plus would help with the motivaton :happy:


    Hi, I have done hip hop absin the past, didnt really stick with it though, im just doing jillians stuff for this month, see if there is a differnece, and then will continue with some other dvds she has, i suppose i coud always add in hip hop abs to

    Starting this today. I have done it a few times over the past year or two but never gotten past level 1. Never had any motivation so I am delighted to find this site!

    First day was okay, got through it fine but feeling tired now. Looking forward to seeing the result though.

    This afternoon will be day 10, level 1 for me! So I'm done with level 1 after today! I'm pretty stoked. I definitely think my love handles have shrunk a bit since starting 30DS. I find that every day, I try to push myself harder than the day before. I'm up to 8lb dumbbells for the chest flys and rows. My fiance has weights but the only options are 4lbs and 8lbs and I don't think I'm ready for 8lbs on the anterior raises w/side lunges or the bicep curls. If we had 5 or 6lb weights I could probably upgrade, but oh well. Happy working out everyone!

    D6 today - needed to take a break yesterday to be with family, my uncle passed and it was his funeral so didn't feel like doing much but visit and be around family. But back at it today to make sure I can continue to get healthier

    I started today as well. I'll take measurements tomorrow. It was fun. My legs are a bit sore. But, it feels so good to be sore. I know I worked hard.

    Hi everyone!! I started day 1 today and thought I was going to DIE! I haven't worked out like that in such a LONG time and needed to take a couple of breaks (even though I know i wasn't suppose to). I'm glad to see a group of people that have the same mindset as me. I'm excited to keep on going and determined NOT to give up! my arms and legs still feel like jell-o and I know I'm going to wake up sore tomorrow morning...but I'm gonna get it done!!! Good luck everyone!

    Level 1, Day 6 done. I have to admit, it was nice to have the weekend off from it! Looking forward to getting back into this week, though. Kind of scared for this week to be over...not looking forward to level 2. Need to take these next 4 days and try to change my mindset about level 2!! :)

    Couldn't get myself motivated to get up early and do Day 6 yesterday morning, but after reading posts here, did it as soon as I got home from work. I am determined to see this all the way through!

    Managed to get up early today, so that's Day 7 done!!!

    Keep up the hard work all, it will be worth it!!!

    I'm starting day 8 in a few minutes. I'm looking forward to Level 2. My least favorite part is the squat and press. At least it is at the beginning so I can get it over with! I'm excited that I can see and feel a difference! I'm determined to make it all 30 days! Everyone keep up the great work! :happy: 15709761.png

    L1D7 completed this morning. I think I'm getting a head cold, so the cardio was a little rough for me and may not have put all my effort into it. Still broke a sweat, though.

    I get head rushes when going from laying down and getting up (ex: moving from push ups to the squat-n-press), does this happen to anyone else?

    It happens to me too. Sometimes I get pretty dizzy and have to force myself to not jump right up. I have a hard time with my head doing crunches. I'm not straining my head or neck, but laying on the floor puts too much pressure on my head. I have really bad sinuses. 15709761.png

    I just completed L1D6. I feel like a jerk because I took 3 days off. I wont do that again!
    I did notice that I was able to power through the entire workout without cusing Jillian out ;)

    I completed day 3 of level one today, and am soooo sore, but it is totally worth it. It is easier and easier to get through the 20 minutes each and every time that I go through it. It is awesome.

    Well done on getting to Day 9. I did Day 8 earlier! Can't decided if I'm excited about moving on to Level 2 or not!

    Keep up the good work all! :-)
