    Just started this today for the first time. Doing Level 1 for now, with two pound (1 kg) weights. Even did pictures before starting, just to I can track my progress that way. Not ready to share those yet though..

    Hi guys! Just completed day 1 - pretty tough! I only used 1.5lb weights, impressed with those of you using 5lb! I thought I'd start out with light ones and work up to using my 5lb ones by level 3 (if I make it that far haha). Feeling good though after day 1, really had to push myself and the amount i am sweating is proof!! I don't even sweat this much doing cardio!!

    I'm on Day 7, Level 2 for the second time around. It DOES get easier even though you think you're gonna die at the start of it. One thing I'll add. On the first go-round, I stuck with Anita and the second go-round, I'm able to do what Natalie is doing so you WILL see improvements. Congratulations on making the decision to do it; just stay with it!

    Well I'm about to do the shred now I've put the kids to bed. Good idea about using lighter weights, definately gonna give it a try as my arms are still aching. I've used some ibuprofen gel on them today and that's helped a little.

    I've sent some friend requests out for some support :)

    Day 4 done and dusted. My arms are still aching like mad so I've had to buy some ibuprofen gel to ease the pain. I've changed my weights to 3lb weights and that seems to be helping a bit :)

    Finished day two. Woot for two days in a row. I also had a session at the gym yesterday, so today I really felt it in my midsection. Getting up off the floor was a challenge :) Now I just gotta keep it going tomorrow.

    Well done to everyone for completing another day of the shred. Katamus must be right about it getting easier - I've just done day 4 and it did feel a bit easier this morning, able to keep going for longer.

    I've been wanting to start this workout again but I just haven't found the time. boo, I know. I did it last year and had some good results. I'm going to gym and getting results there also but Jillian really does the full body workout and to me all that different gym equipment can be intimidating. :wink: Hopefully you see me chiming in on this thread in the near future. :smile: And good work girls!!

    It is tough! I did workout 1 for the first time yesterday. I was sweating (my HRM said I was in the 90% range...) and had to rest but glad I did what I could. Not sure I will be doing it every day but glad I have something different to throw in to the mix. I really like that its so short because I am not a morning person and by the time the kids are taken care of and dinner is done, etc. it's like 9 - 9:30 at night.

    Did day three today (skipped yesterday as I was at the gym instead). It's getting a bit easier, so maybe I can move on to L2 in a few days. We'll see how that goes.

    I just ordered it too! I have 100+ pounds to lose, but you all have motivated me to do the 30 DS. I hope I can get through it!!!
