    Just joined...really happy I found this group...need the motivation of other peoples stories and logging my progress.

    Taken before pics and measurements. Competed L1D1 today and really enjoyed it! Even though once I finished my body was like jelly! It feels fine now though, but does that mean nothing and I will feel it in the morning?

    Just did day 4 and 5, level 1. Today I worked out twice because tomorrow won't be able to. It became too easy so I'm thinking of 5lbs weights but have to find out a way how to do that without buying new weights. I have 2lbs dumbbells.

    I start the 30 day shred on Monday, I am really looking forward to getting into it!
    I am just hoping the motivation doesn't stray as i haven't had much success with previous home fitness regimes! :cry:

    Did day 9 of level 1 and feel frustraited... I see no results. My weight is the same and measurements didn't change. Don't want to keep on working out.. My muscles feel a little bit thighter than they were but still. I want to get visible results and now I doubt that they will show up:{

    Don't give up yet! I did not see any real changes in inches OR weight until I was about 20 days in. I ended up losing 5 pounds and almost 10 inches, so try and keep going!

    Karlos 988, thanks for encouraging:}
  • Started this on Saturday with my daughter. She is 15, and doesnt work out at all - during the entire thing, she kept telling me "how easy" it was. I was doing everything I was supposed to, and she quit right around 15 minutes into it. The next morning, she could barely walk!! I felt okay - a little sore in my thighs, but did 20 minutes of pilates anyhow. My daughter needed a day off, lol...

    We get it going again tonight!! We are only on level 1, but I am thinking of pushing it to level 2 before the week is out - just to increase the burn...

    Did I mention I LOVE the sore muscle feeling? Lol... strange, I know!!

    Did Day 1 this morning...this is the third time I've started the shred, and never completed it (grr). I'm very familiar with Level 1, but I still had a hard time making it through some of the strength (damn you, push-ups!), and the cardio still sucks! Looking forward to it getting easier!

    I finished all 3 levels and decided to go back through all levels with heavier weights. I can't believe it but my muscles are sore again first couple days of level 1! Not like it was the first time, but still noticeable.

    Oh yeah and I still can't do both rounds of push ups Natalie style! I'm up to doing about 10 push ups Natalie style and then giving in and going back to Anita style. #damnyoutohellpushups

    Finished day 3 of level one last night. Not doing them every day just as time permits......I'm really surpised how much strength I get in 30 minutes! Keeps me coming back hopefully more often. I was pretty sore after the first day but now not sore at all the day after. I sooooo feel the burn on the squats with push up with weights move... Ooooooowiiiiiieee!

    Finished day 8 today. Haven't checked measurements but I did Jillian's No More Trouble Zones for a couple of weeks before starting the 30 day shred and I can see a bit of a difference in my saddle-bag area.

    I am happy to report that I have finally completed Level 1 and have moved on to Level 2 today. For those of you getting ready to move on, let me say, I think she is trying to kill me. :) I thought level 1 was bad. Boy was I wrong. Okay so now for the results so far.

    My SW before Level 1 was 210 lbs Today I weighed in at 207 lbs and Since doing Level 1 I have lost 6" total. Now on to the next Level!

    I start L1D1 tonight. The pushups ppl are mentioning are getting intimidating!! Has anyone had alot of success JUST doing the video, or should you mix it with Cardio?

    Im on L1D7, still getting good heart rate out of it and still sweating a lot.
    I can go through most of the circuits without any problems but now Im doing "Natalie" mode.
    Using puny 2 lbs weights, waiting till level 2 to get to 5 lbs.

    Looking forward to Level 2! I hear its pretty rough xD

    Have noticed small changes already, but didnt take measurements, kind of going by pant looseness.

    Just finished day 6 of level 1 today... so far no progress :( I just feel like *something* should be happening! Too early to tell?

    L1 D2 down! Since today is the holiday I wanted to make sure I got it in. I definitely need to invest in some smaller weights. The heavier size is making it difficult for me to complete all the reps.
  • I just finished day 6 too, there has been no change on the scale so I started measuring today because I feel like there is a slight change already. Keep at it :)

    I’m on day 5 of level 1; I can already feel the difference in my endurance. I had underestimated Jillian, for some reason I thought I would just breeze through this workout (I guess the joke is on me) But I must admit that I get so excited thinking about completing the 30Day Shred.
